NOAA Center for Atmospheric Science Team in Atlantic Ocean Researching Storm Prediction and Hurricanes in U.S. and the Caribbean
A NOAA Center for Atmospheric Sciences (NCAS) team led by Howard University professor Vernon Morris Ph.D. is currently in the tropical Atlantic Ocean, where they are studying how small particles suspended in the air originating from Africa affect weather in the U.S. and Caribbean. The Aerosols and Ocean Science Expedition (AEROSE) is investigating the connection between African winds and the particles they carry, called aerosols, and the weather across the Atlantic where the data collected on the expedition could potentially improve hurricane forecasting. The NCAS group joins an oceanographic scientific team headed by NOAA scientist Claudia Schmid, Ph.D. The team is traveling aboard the NOAA vessel Ronald H. Brown, named after the first African-American U.S. Secretary of Commerce.
