Tropical cyclones
Climate Wikience provides several ways to explore tropical cyclones.
-
interactively nagivate using auxiliary data like wind speed or cloud properties
Hurricane Katrina track and CFSR wind speed at 10 meters above surface, 28 of August, 2005 (the date near the hurricane peak strength)
-
Wind speed swaths (footprints) for tropical cyclones
Use for risk assessment and other advanced studies
Watch the interactive exploration of Hurricane Iniki wind swath using Climate Wikience. Iniki stroke Hawaii in 1992 being the 3rd costliest Pacific hurricane on history (estimated cost: $3.03 billion for 2015).
