NASA has new hurricane web page

NASA has created a new web-page for hurricanes.

The Web page is a compilation of data from various satellites and computer models, and it explains why and how NASA investigates hurricanes. It also covers the relationship of NASA’s research focus as compared to other agencies’ operational emphasis.

The site provides access to data about active hurricanes and famous past storms. Users can search by hurricane topic, such as how storms are formed; how they are measured; and how they affect land or ocean life. The multimedia section of the site features animation, satellite, video, and still images of hurricanes.
