From the jet stream to storm systems, the invisible tug-of-war between warm and cold air masses shapes the weather we feel ...

What can sand dunes on Earth and Mars teach us about the latter’s wind behavior and atmosphere? This is what a recently awarded NASA grant hopes to address as a PhD student at Texas A&M University ...

Offshore wind turbines change the air and ocean currents. The rotors extract wind energy and influence surface currents, while the turbine pillars underwater act as obstacles and slow down tidal ...

This fall, NASA scientist Kris Bedka flew into Hurricane Helene to test a device that uses lasers to create ultradetailed wind measurements. It could be the key to unlocking better storm predictions.

Because of the shape of Michigan and the shape of Lake Michigan, we get what is called a convergence zone. This zone makes unique weather here in Michigan. The precipitation process is simple. Rising ...
