Tornadogenesis

Tornadogenesis is the process by which a tornado forms. There are many types of tornadoes, varying in methods of formation. Despite ongoing scientific study and high-profile research projects such as VORTEX, tornadogenesis remains a complex process, and the intricacies of many tornado formation mechanisms are still poorly understood.
