Colder waters, disruptive winds, a missing wave train and lower Coriolis force form a near-perfect storm shield, meaning ...

The major circulation patterns in the atmosphere are changing as a result of global warming. We found much of the cloud action is taking place at the edges of these major wind systems.

The new device is called the Aerosol Wind Profiler (AWP), and it’s been in the works at NASA for about four years. The AWP uses the Doppler effect to create real-time, 3D maps of wind patterns ...

Hurricane forecasters are carefully watching ocean temperatures in the Pacific Ocean for changes that signal El Niño or La Niña, major global climate patterns that affect hurricane season ...
