I know there's been some work done on using MCB for hurricane weakening.
This session may be a good place to air such research.

Hydroclimatic extremes under change: Advancing the science and
implementation in hazard prevention and control
Dear colleague,
The *deadline* for submitting an abstract to the EGU General Assembly is
almost here - *Wednesday, 13 January 2016, at 13:00 CET*.
Our session aims to bring together geoscientists, risk management experts,
and scientists working in the insurance industry to discuss the latest
developments on:
- Predictive methods to model hydroclimatic extremes, e.g., extreme
value theory, stochastic and probabilistic modelling, uncertainty modelling
and risk aggregation, Bayesian approaches and copulas, parameter
estimation, risk management and ruin theory, decision processes, return
predictability, heavy tail distributions and their implication, etc.
- Changes and trends in hydroclimatic variables e.g., storms, cyclones
and tornadoes, river floods, flash floods, extreme temperatures, heat and
cold waves, droughts, etc.
- How these challenges are adopted by industry (e.g., insurance and
reinsurance) and how the premium is affected.
- The role of insurance in managing extreme events and the challenges
arising from climate change as a strategic topic.
