Super Typhoon - Welcome to SuperTyphoon! Since 1995, SuperTyphoon has been providing the most extensive collection of information about active tropical cyclones (hurricanes and typhoons), satellite imagery and related products from numerous government, military, and educational sources on the Internet. Here you will find the resources necessary to follow the formation and progress of tropical cyclones worldwide.
Weather and Climate Impact Assessment Science Program - The Extremes Toolkit is an interactive program for analyzing extreme value data using the R statistical programming language. A graphical user interface is provided, so a knowledge of R is not necessarily required. The toolkit comes with a tutorial that explains how the toolkit can be used to treat weather and climate extremes in a realistic manner (e.g., taking into account diurnal and annual cycles, trends, physically-based covariates).
