He did it all in his head, refusing to use computers. During his career, Ted Fujita researched meteorology, focusing on severe storms such as microbursts, tornadoes, and hurricanes. The audio/visual portion of the collection contains such items as the first full-motion satellite images of the Earth, the use of which he pioneered as a meteorological assessment and prediction technique.

Ted Fujita was born on October 23, 1920 in northern Kyushu , the southwesternmost island in Japan. Diabetes mellitus, a risk factor for cancer, is also globally endemic. The table provides the Fujita Scale of tornado intensity, which has been superceded in the U.S. and Canada by the EF-Scale. Fujita developed the Fujita scale, a schematic for measuring the intensity of tornadoes. Diabetes is a disease of metabolism, which is the way the body uses food for energy and growth.

In the face of widespread skepticism among his colleagues, Fujita insisted that these damage patterns were the products of columns of air descending rapidly from a thunderstorm, striking the surface, and then flowing out in all directions. $327 billion: Total cost of diagnosed . The decline in vascular death rates has been accompanied by a diversification of causes in individuals with diagnosed diabetes and a transition from vascular diseases to cancers as the leading contributor to diabetes-related death.

Mr. Fujita died at his Chicago home Thursday morning after a two-year illness. Ted Fujita's groundbreaking work in research and applied science saved thousands of lives and helped Americans prepare for and respond to dangerous weather phenomena. Fujita returned to the downdraft concept after he noticed starburst-like damage patterns from the . [16] Studying the damage caused by the nuclear explosions contributed to Fujita's understanding of downbursts and microbursts as "starbursts" of wind hitting the Earth's surface and spreading out.[17].
