A new era of solar observation
For the first time, scientists have taken near-daily measurements of the Sun’s global coronal magnetic field, a region of the Sun that has only been observed irregularly in the past. The resulting observations are providing valuable insights into the processes that drive the intense solar storms that impact fundamental technologies, and thus lives and livelihoods, here on Earth.

Making waves in hurricane prediction
More accurately predicting periods of increased hurricane activity weeks in advance may become possible due to new research published this month. Research from NSF NCAR shows that twice as many hurricanes form two days after the passing of large-scale atmospheric waves called Kelvin waves than in the days before.
