DOI: 10.5194/nhess-21-1313-2021
Abstract: Abstract. We use high-resolution (4.4 km ) numerical simulations of tropical cyclones to produce exceedance probability estimates for extreme wind (gust) speeds over Bangladesh. For the first time, we estimate equivalent return periods up to… read more here.
