Radiometer to Detect Forest Fires and Turbulence Aids Flights
NOAA researchers test infrared radiometer mounted in aircraft to map heat from hidden fires and predict wind shear and clear air turbulence. The device, trained on 30 000 feet, scans up to 4 000 square miles in 45 minutes and could warn pilots of sudden temperature changes and gust fronts.
