Tornadoes are most often detected by doppler radar, which can measure wind velocity from a distance. However, one limitation is that radar cannot tell if a tornado is actually on the ground; that usually requires visual confirmation.
No. Tornadoes do not damage the atmosphere.
Nearly all tornadoes in the southern hemisphere do. However in the northern hemisphere most tornadoes rotate counterclockwise. A small percentage of tornadoes rotate opposite of what is normal for their hemisphere. These are called anticyclonic tornadoes.
Tornadoes in the southern hemisphere spin clockwise with the exception of rare anticyclonic tornadoes.
Tornadoes do not create anything; they only destroy.
Tornadoes can form in mountains, but most do not.
The physicist who invented the Geiger counter, the instrument that detects radioactivity, was Hans Geiger.
A seismometer detects the earthquake vibrations that the seismograph records.
Seismometer
The instrument that detects, measures, and records the energy of earthquake vibrations is called a seismometer or seismograph.
Manometer
The instrument that detects seismic waves is called a seismometer or seismograph. It measures the vibrations caused by seismic waves in the Earth's crust and can help to monitor and study earthquakes.
A seismometer is the instrument that detects seismic waves. It records the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes and other seismic events. These devices are crucial for monitoring and studying earthquakes.
A Geiger-Müller counter is an instrument that detects radiation by measuring the electric current produced when ionizing radiation interacts with the gas inside the detector. This current is amplified and counted, providing a measure of the radiation intensity.
DOROTHY
Tornadoes are usually detected using Doppler radar.
Meteorologists use a radar instrument called Doppler radar to detect tornadoes. Doppler radar can detect the rotation within a thunderstorm, which is a key indicator of possible tornado formation.
Yes, it is called the pusometer. It detects when and where an earthquake will strike, it is quite accurate.
