This type of turbulence is generally caused when strong winds hit a mountain range (mostly perpendicular) and their flow is ...

Turbulence can occur up to 55 miles from thunderstorms, surpassing the FAA's 20-mile guideline and prompting standard safety updates. Climate change worsens turbulence by disrupting jet streams ...

Physicists have long tried to model the chaotic phenomenon of turbulence. Now, a team has pioneered a new quantum ...

One is mountain waves, so where you have the Andes or the Rockies they generate turbulence. The other is thunderstorms: these tend to be strongest close to the equator so you can expect some ...

"Geographic location has much to do with why these airports are challenging for pilots," a former airline pilot told Newsweek ...

At altitude, there are two main types of turbulence. One is caused by convective currents and is associated with thunderstorms. The other is clear air turbulence, which was involved in the ...
