Technique Uses GPS Signals to Gauge Hurricane's Strength

University of Michigan engineering researchers are working on a global satellite project that would help predict the intensity of a hurricane while it is developing. In coordination with NASA, Michigan Engineering Professor Chris Ruf is working on the Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS), which will use GPS signals to see inside the storm - something that has never been available via satellite before.
