Hurricanes are powerful, rotating tropical storms that form over warm ocean waters. They are characterized by strong winds, heavy rainfall, and storm surges that can cause significant damage to coastal areas. Researchers study hurricanes to better understand their formation, track their movement, and improve forecasting methods in order to mitigate their impact on communities. This research involves studying factors such as temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure, as well as the role of climate change in influencing the frequency and intensity of hurricanes. Ultimately, the goal of hurricane research is to protect lives and property by providing accurate and timely warnings to those in the storm's path.
