Weather-related emergencies and disasters are difficult enough to navigate — and people with special needs face a unique set of challenges.

Specially-adapted drones, developed by an international team involving scientists from the University of Cambridge, are transforming how we forecast eruptions by allowing close-range measurements of previously inaccessible and hazardous volcanoes.

This has been a record-breaking week for global hurricanes as powerful storms struck both the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean basins, leaving scientists wondering whether they're harbingers of a more destructive climate-warmed future or are outliers that test the limits—but remain within—the realm of normal variability.
