In this addition to the critically acclaimed Scientist in the Field
series, scientist Robin Tanamachi and her team are trying to save
countless lives across America's heartland, chasing one tornado at
a time. Robin Tanamachi has been captivated by tornadoes and
extreme weather her entire life. When she realized people
researched weather for a job, she was hooked. She now studies
tornadogenesis, or how tornadoes form, and what causes them to get
weaker versus strengthen. For her, driving around in a Doppler
radar truck aiming towards storms is a normal day in the office.
The data she collects is then modeled and studied on
computers--with math, physics, and computer science working hand in
hand with meteorology. At the end of the day, knowing exactly how,
when, and where these violent storms happen can give more warning
time for everyone involved.
