An automated procedure is used to evaluate objective criteria for the detection of observed tropical cyclones in high-resolution (1.125 degree) European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts analyses. Best values of the objective criteria are determined for cyclones of tropical storm and hurricane strength. A comparison is made between the representation in the analysis of two contrasting storms: Hurricane Hugo and Andrew. The implications of the detection method for simulations of climate change are discussed
