Water Falls (Science On a Sphere show): Hurricane Sandy
Hurricane Sandy segment for the GPM Science On a Sphere (SOS) show titled "Water Falls". The hurricane visualization is generated from GEOS-5 model output spanning October 26, 2012 to November 2, 2012 and repeated on the globe three times.
Sample composite of the Hurricane Sandy segment for the SOS show "Water Falls". Hurricane Sandy is multiplied three times around the globe so that it can be seen by all visitors of a SOS exhibit.
Cloud layer of Hurricane Sandy for the SOS "Water Falls" show. (NOTE: The layer is multiplied three times for coverage around the SOS.)
Wind layer of Hurricane Sandy for the SOS "Water Falls" show. (NOTE: The layer is multiplied three times for coverage around the SOS.)
Earth layer for the SOS "Water Falls" show. (NOTE: The layer is multiplied three times for coverage around the SOS.)
