Dr. Dvorak's most influential work was the creation of the Dvorak Technique, a method of estimating tropical cyclone intensity using infrared satellite. The technique is credited as fundamentally enhancing the ability to monitor tropical cyclones on a global scale. The method provides an invaluable tool in monitoring tropical systems given the limitations of direct measurements.
