NASA Research to Help Aircraft Avoid Ocean Storms, Turbulence
Prototype system to provide aircraft with updates about severe storms and turbulence over remote ocean regions.
The NCAR project is funded by NASA's Applied Sciences Program, which seeks to translate NASA's investment in Earth observations into applications that address real problems. The program and its partners are working to bridge the gap between research results and operational aviation weather products in such areas as in-flight icing, convective weather, turbulence, volcanic ash, and space weather.
