Abstract:
We discuss the possibility of using calculating singularities
to forecast the dynamics of hurricanes.
Our basic model is the shallow-water system.
By treating the hurricane eye as a vortex type singularity and
truncating the corresponding sequence of Hugoniot type
conditions, we carry out many numerical experiments.
The comparison of our results with the tracks of three actual
hurricanes shows that our approach is rather fruitful.
