Anticipating changes here in hurricane intensity can be challenging in data sparse regions of the North Atlantic Ocean.Hyperspectral infrared retrieved profiles have the potential to provide a wealth of information about the vertical structure of thermodynamic characteristics of the atmosphere such as temperature and moisture which can impact hurricane intensity.Increased forecaster situational awareness and identification of moist or dry layers in the near-storm environment can indicate impending changes in storm intensity.This investigation demonstrates the utility and value of hyperspectral infrared retrieved profiles to diagnose thermodynamic characteristics of the near-storm environment to anticipate click here changes in hurricane intensity.Keywords: Hurricane, Sounding, Satellite.
