NASA's TROPICS mission: Offering detailed images and analysis of tropical cyclones
Tropical cyclones represent a danger to life, property, and the economies of communities. Researchers who study tropical cyclones have focused on remote observations, using space-based platforms to image these storms, inform forecasts, better predict landfall, and improve understanding of storm dynamics and precipitation evolution (see fig. 1).
