Since the 1970s, climate researchers have been studying supercell thunderstorms — the atmospheric phenomena that produce the world's most violent and dangerous tornadoes. With NVIDIA rendering, simulation, and GPU-acceleration technologies, climate researchers at the University of Wisconsin are trying to get one step closer to understanding the complexity of these unpredictable storms with collaborative, interactive scientific workflows. • NVIDIA IndeX: https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-i... • NVIDIA Iray: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/design-v... • Magnum IO / GPUDirect Storage: https://developer.nvidia.com/gpudirec... • NanoVDB: https://developer.nvidia.com/nanovdb • Scientific Visualization in Omniverse: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/omnivers...
