  1. Wind profile: parametric radial profiles of hurricane winds form the basis of current approaches to assess wind return periods and the development of engineering standards in hurricane-prone regions. Holland (2010) revised the Holland (1980) parametric approach by applying information readily available from hurricane archives or in hurricane warning information.
  2. Vmax-Pc relation: A technique for relating central pressure and maximum winds in tropical cyclones. Default in Dashboard is Holland (2008).
  3. Rmax relation: The RMW plays an important role in hurricane risk prediction. There are multiple relationships implemented in Delft Dashboard. Often the radius of maximum winds (RMW or Rmax) is related to the pressure drop and latitude. One such relation is DDB supports the following relations: a constant RMW of 25nm, Gross et al. (2004) and Vickery and Waldhera (2008).
