Description

Derived monthly mean tropical cyclone potential intensities (and associated variables) using the Bister and Emanuel 2002 PI algorithm, ftp://texmex.mit.edu/pub/emanuel/TCMAX; from MERRA2 (averaged over 1980-2016) and ERA-I data (averaged over 1980-2013), on 2.5x2.5 degree grids and with the ERA-I land-sea mask already applied. This data supported the publication of Gilford et al. (2017, JoC). When using this data, please include the citation:
