Dust emission response to climate in Southern Africa
The processes which act in mineral dust source regions and factors which contribute to interannual variability within dust plumes emanating from them are poorly understood. In...- publication PDF

Upscale versus “up-amplitude” growth of forecast-error spectra
Atmospheric predictability is measured by the average difference (or "error") within an ensemble of forecasts starting from slightly different initial conditions. The spatial...- publication PDF

Mechanisms of along-valley winds and heat exchange over mountainous terrain
The physical mechanisms leading to the formation of diurnal along-valley winds are investigated over idealized three-dimensional topography. The topography used in this study...- publication PDF

Interactive Computing on the IBM 4341
The SCD computing system is complex, and it is difficult to disguise that complexity without impairing function. The IBM 4341 system is flexible; it is possible therefore to...- publication PDF

Mesoscale effects on carbon export: A global perspective
Carbon export from the surface to the deep ocean is a primary control on global carbon budgets and is mediated by plankton that are sensitive to physical forcing. Earth system...- publication PDF

The role of the particle size distribution in assessing aerosol composition...
Variations in the chemical composition of atmospheric aerosols alter their hygroscopicity and can lead to changes in the cloud-active fraction of the aerosols, or cloud...- publication PDF
