Experiencing severe turbulence on a plane can be terrifying, and occasionally can lead to injuries. Recently, five people on ...

The paper used a computer model to estimate how much worse turbulence will get when carbon dioxide in the atmosphere doubles ... in meteorology called the thermal wind law. So ‘thermal ...

New research from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and NOAA scientists has officially identified the bumpiest hurricane ...

Using state-of-the-art equipment, researchers at Michigan Tech model cloud processes including turbulence from bottom- to top-of-troposphere atmospheric conditions. Research in atmospheric physics is ...

In a paper published in Geophysical Research Letters, researchers have discovered that the turbulence in the thermosphere exhibits the same physical laws as the wind in the lower atmosphere.

Many of the most pressing problems in environmental science, such as El Nino, the ozone hole, and global warming intimately involve the motions of the atmosphere and the ... instabilities, and ...
