Climatologists, Oceanographers Track Climate-changing Ocean Pattern
Researchers are using satellites in efforts to better predict El Niño, the weather pattern responsible for supplying more moisture and energy to storms in the U.S. during the winter season. El ... > more -
Computer Technology Gets The Word Out Faster During A Disaster
Several federal agencies are beginning to implement a common, standardized system for disseminating disaster alerts, called the Common Alert Protocol. The CAP is a digital message format that can be ... > more -
Meteorologists Tap Into Public For Help Tracking Storms
By recording the shape of snowflakes seen under a magnifying glass and submitting the information to a NASA Web site, the public can contribute to a global snow-tracking network. Different types of ... > more -
Improving Structural Engineering with Earthquake Simulator
To develop designs that can survive extreme seismic events, and to devise retrofit solutions for older homes, civil engineers who specialize in structural design test realistic models of homes in ... > more -
Meteorologists' New Scale Will Help in Emergency Planning
Those who live in the Northeaster United States will be able to plan ahead for major storms thanks to a new ranking scale that predicts not only how many inches of snow will fall, but also how long ... > more -
Students Help Meteorologists Make Sense of Satellite Radar Data
One hundred schools in 11 countries are participating in a program to help NASA calibrate the measurements from CloudSat, a remote-sensing satellite. Students record the type of clouds and ... > more -
Statisticians Show that High Altitude Makes Hits Longer
Two mathematicians at the University of Northern Colorado are taking a fresh statistical look at the effects of elevation on hitting -- specifically at Coors Field in Denver, where the field is at a ... > more -
Atmospheric Scientists Link Lightning to Ice Particles In Clouds
Satellite imaging is now helping atmospheric scientists link the amount of charged ice in clouds to lightning activity. Ice particles in thunderstorms can help increase precipitation, the scientists ... > more -
