This brochure provides an introduction to the AIR Tropical Cyclone Model for Mexico, which features a basinwide catalog of simulated events to enable companies to assess risk to portfolios that span Mexico, the Caribbean, the United States and even the Gulf of Mexico (offshore assets). The AIR model incorporates a high-resolution flood module to estimate the severity of precipitation-induced flooding, the probability of which can be exacerbated by Mexico's mountainous terrain. The model explicitly accounts for the complex teleconnections between the El Niño-Southern Oscillation and Atlantic wind shear, appropriately reflecting the negative correlation between tropical storm genesis in the two basins.
