Massive Data Haul Helps Scientists
Better Understand Dangerous, Complex
Hurricanes

CAMEX-3
An eye that winked, a rain of ice crystals, and
striking lightning show that hurricanes lead more
complex lives than anyone had suspected. More
details - and fuller understanding of one of
nature's more ferocious weather phenomena -
will come in the next year as scientists analyze thousands of hours
of data collected during the most comprehensive hurricane study
project ever conducted. NASA scientists, working with colleagues
at NOAA, universities from Wisconsin to Florida, and researchers
in the military and the weather industry, are studying data
collected by the CAMEX-3 experiment. Click on the full story

scientist explain the experiment in her own words. (Full Story)
