Colorado State University is a world leader in hurricane research and forecasting. Our group continues the long CSU tradition in hurricane forecasting with continually improving techniques for predicting tropical cyclone activity powered by cutting-edge new research.
Our team develops new software and AI tools that enable better data analysis and forecasts of high-impact weather. These tools include open source software for analyzing weather lidar and radar data, and AI products for better forecasts of hurricanes.
We collect data in field experiments to better study the atmosphere around the world. We manage and deploy the CSU SEA-POL radar, an NSF Community Facility, along with other weather radars on land, ships, aircraft, and satellites to study clouds and precipitation.
Our research team uses a combination of theoretical and numerical models to improve our understanding and prediction of extreme weather. The primary targets of our research are on high-impact tropical weather, including hurricanes, heavy rain, and El Nino impacts.
What's happening in the group

Delián Colón Burgos received the Herbert Riehl award in recognition for her paper, “Convective Organization in African Easterly Waves Observed During the NAMMA and CPEX‐CV Field Campaign”, recently published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres. Delián was at the annual meeting of the European Geophysical Union and was unable to receive the award in person and present her work, so Professor Bell accepted the award on her behalf. She will present her research to CSU’s Department of Atmospheric Science at a later date.
