fvGCM Climate Model and Hurricane Ivan Global View

This animation illustrates the output of the fvGCM atmospheric model, during the five day period just prior to the landfall of hurricane Ivan. The white cloud-like features show the cloud cover and total moisture calculated by the model and help to illustrate wind motion.

An animation illustrating the global nature of the fvGCM model.  The white cloud-like features show the cloud cover and total moisture calculated by the model and help to illustrate wind motion.  The modeled Hurricane Ivan is visible in the center of the image.    An animation illustrating the global nature of the fvGCM model.
