"Every summer, communities across northern Australia brace for the tropical
cyclone season. Tropical cyclones draw their power from the warm seas,
extracting heat and moisture from ocean water.
To improve cyclone forecasting – and better protect lives and property – we
enlisted an unlikely ally: deep-diving sea turtles equipped with oceanographic
sensors on their shells.
At times these turtles have encountered powerful tropical cyclones, allowing
their sensors to gather and can gather critical information on how the
temperature in the water changes as the storm passes overhead."
