The course is part of a broader mission at Hampton to position its students and research faculty on the front lines of climate science and resilience, where science, innovation and urgency meet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/home.hamptonu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image001-1-473x630.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24033\" style=\"width:258px;height:auto\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(L) Dr. Stephen Guimond, (R) Theodore Mackey (graduate student in APS and the Severe Weather Research Center).&nbsp; The photo was taken during the American Meteorological Society 21<sup>st<\/sup>&nbsp;Mesoscale Atmospheric Processes conference on June 25, 2025 in Boise, Idaho.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Each year, hurricanes carve destructive paths across the U.S. coastline. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reports that the frequency of Category 4 and 5 hurricanes has <em>more than doubled<\/em> since the 1980s, driven by warming oceans and shifting atmospheric conditions. Simultaneously, a sharp rise in &#8220;rain bombs&#8221;\u2014sudden, intense rainfall events\u2014has led to deadly flash flooding from Vermont to Las Vegas to Houston to Kerrville, Texas. In 2024 alone, flooding caused over $6 billion in damages nationwide, and scientists warn that this is just the beginning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These escalating extreme events are redefining the way weather is studied, measured, and taught. Hampton University is responding with purpose.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Central to the curriculum in the climate science class is an exploration of how hurricanes form and intensify, with students learning about satellite instruments and Doppler radar systems mounted on aircraft<s> <\/s>. They are also gaining firsthand exposure to the real-time tools used by national weather agencies\u2014a rare opportunity for undergraduates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the heart of this initiative is a groundbreaking research project led by NOAA engineers and Dr. Stephen Guimond, Associate Professor in the Department of Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences and Director of Hampton\u2019s Severe Weather Research Center. His recently published paper in <em>IEEE Transactions on Radar Systems<\/em> details a next-generation airborne Doppler radar system that can detect and analyze small-scale turbulent winds within hurricanes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These gusts of wind\u2014technically referred to as \u201cturbulence\u201d\u2014are often the most dangerous part of a hurricane. Responsible for toppling trees, tearing roofs from homes, and shattering windows, turbulence plays a central role in the destruction left in a storm\u2019s wake. Dr. Guimond&#8217;s computer code can rapidly calculate the three-dimensional structure of these turbulent winds in real-time or near-real-time. This data is relayed to the National Hurricane Center (NHC), empowering meteorologists to issue faster, more precise warnings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cCurrently, legacy radar instruments onboard NOAA aircraft cannot measure turbulence, which is critical for the protection of life and property and understanding the physics of hurricanes,\u201d said Dr. Guimond.&nbsp; \u201cThis new hardware and software technology for radar instrumentation can measure turbulence accurately and will ultimately lead to better warnings, improved forecasts and a more complete understanding of how hurricanes work.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/home.hamptonu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/image002-1-654x630.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24034\" style=\"width:433px;height:auto\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The figure shows data from the HU Skyler II Doppler radar revealing the upward growth of a severe convective cell in the Hampton Roads region as seen by the reflectivity (on the left side) and the Doppler velocity (on the right side). The horizontal, dashed lines mark the upward growth of the cell boundary with time.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The radar hardware that enables this breakthrough has been in development for many years with recent improvements to optimize the measurements. Developed by a team of engineers, the phased<em> array antenna<\/em> captures high-resolution wind and precipitation fields, offering a level of detail previously unattainable in hurricane research. This same antenna technology powers the Skyler II Doppler radar, stationed atop the Harbor Center building in downtown Hampton. From this elevated vantage point, the radar monitors extreme weather across the Hampton Roads region, providing high resolution data to both researchers and students that exceeds the capabilities of local weather service offices&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collaboration between science and education at Hampton University is palpable. Students are not only learning the physics behind severe weather \u2014they are participating in the data collection and analysis as well. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Severe Weather Research Center serves as a hub for this research, hosting interdisciplinary projects that merge physics, applied mathematics, computer science and engineering.&nbsp; In a time when Black and Brown communities are disproportionately impacted by climate events\u2014from New Orleans&#8217; levee failures to flash flooding in New York\u2019s urban corridors\u2014Hampton\u2019s investment in weather science is also an investment in equity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur students aren\u2019t just studying the storm\u2014they\u2019re shaping the future of how we respond to it,\u201d said Hampton University President Darrell K. Williams. \u201cThis sort of research will have an impact on generations to come.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the country braces for another intense hurricane season, Hampton University continues to stand at the intersection of legacy, learning, and leadership. With faculty-driven research, student engagement, and technology designed to keep people safe, the university is not only preparing the next generation of atmospheric scientists\u2014it\u2019s helping to rewrite the future forecast.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hampton University: A National Leader in Research, Innovation, and Opportunity<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hampton University is a prestigious Carnegie R2-designated research institution, nationally acclaimed for its pioneering work in atmospheric science, cancer treatment, and cybersecurity. With an annual economic impact of $530 million across the region and the Commonwealth of Virginia, Hampton stands as a powerful engine of innovation, workforce development, and inclusive economic growth.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consistently recognized for academic excellence and transformative outcomes, Hampton was recently named one of the \u201cBest Colleges in America\u201d by&nbsp;<em>Money Magazine<\/em>&nbsp;and honored as the \u201cBest Private College\u201d by&nbsp;<em>Coastal Virginia Magazine<\/em>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded in 1868, Hampton University is a proud, close-knit community of scholars, representing 44 states and 32 territories.
