AOML
Hurricane Research aims to improve forecasts and advance
the basic physical understanding of hurricanes and tropical
meteorology. A key aspect of AOML's Hurricane Research is
its annual program of research flights aboard the
reconnaissance
aircraft (two WP-3D turboprops and a new
Gulfstream IV SP jet) flown by NOAA's
Aircraft
Operations Center.
