In fact ,they do! Emma age 6
People who study tornadoes are a type of meteorologist.
No. And they probably never will. We still don't even fully understand tornadoes and have difficulty predicting them. The idea of harnessing them is not even being considered.
Not real tornado. Scientists have produces small vortices in labs that resemble tornadoes, and have simulated tornadoes in supercomputers, but they cannot create real tornadoes.
Scientists track tornadoes using Doppler radar and reports from eyewitnesses.
Scientists understand that tornadoes are a type of small but violent windstorm with both intense rotating winds and very strong updrafts. Tornadoes form from strong thunderstorms, but scientists only partially understand the exact mechanisms of their formation. (see below links for more information). Scientists know that tornadoes vary in strength, size, forward speed and duration. Although stronger tornadoes tend to be larger and longer lasting, this is not always the case. These tornadoes can cause anything from minor damage to total destruction. Tornadoes usually follow a straight path, but can make turns while others have followed meandering paths. Tornadoes often occur in outbreaks, where multiple tornadoes form from one storm system within a day or two. The strongest of tornadoes often occur in such outbreaks. Some tornadoes break down to produce multiple suction vortices, which produce narrow, curved swaths of damage that is more severe than that from the rest of the tornado. The are call multiple vortex or multivortex tornadoes. Many of the strongest tornadoes are multivortex.
There are two reasons. First, a better understanding of tornado may give us a better ability to predict them, which can lead to better warnings that can save lives. Second, scientists tend to be curious and simply want to understand how the world works; that includes tornadoes.
Currently, none. Most scientists have acknowledged that it is impossible to prevent tornadoes.
Scientists follow tornadoes to track where they are going and warn people in their paths. They also study tornadoes to learn more about them so they can be better predicted.
The F-scale, or Fujita scale, helped scientists study tornado intensity by providing a way to categorize tornadoes based on the damage they caused. By analyzing the damage pattern caused by tornadoes of different intensities, scientists were able to better understand the characteristics and behavior of tornadoes and improve their forecasting and warning systems.
No.
Since tornadoes are a form of weather, the scientists who study tornadoes are weather scientists of meteorologists.
