Texas Tech Hurricane Research Team Only a few more days till the official end to the 2009 Hurricane Season. StickNet and TTUKA-1 (hopefully, with some additional funding) will be a part of VORTEX 2 again, starting May 1, 2010
Texas Tech Hurricane Research Team The QuikScat satellite has "retired" from service this week and looks like its mission has come to an end. QuikScat functioned an additional 7 years past its design lifetime of 3 years. The satellite has been a useful tool to identifying developing tropical systems as well as monitoring systems in the other basins that... don't have the luxury of aircraft reconnaissance.
Texas Tech Hurricane Research Team One week left of the 2009 Atlantic Hurricane Season! TTUHRT made 1 deployment for Tropical Storm Ida, which was TTUKA-1's first tropical deployment. Instrumentation will once again be used this spring for VORTEX 2!
