The Daily Camera highlights Project Storm Deployment
This summer, IRISS traveled through the mid-west area (Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, and back to baby直播app) to continue Project Storm research.

The team focused on sampling the forward flank downdraft region and testing new Lagrangian drifters (picture captured by Danny Liebert)
