Periodic Cycles of Eyewall Convection Limit the Rapid Intensification of Typhoon Hato (2017)

Figure 10

Time-azimuth diagram of upward mass flux at a radius of 20–80 km at heights of (a) 1.3 km, (c) 5.6 km, and (e) 12.7 km. In each panel, the four periodic cycles are separated by black dashed lines. (b, d, f) They are the same as (a), (c), and (e) but for downward mass flux.
