Can atomic oxygen production explain the ionospheric annual asymmetry?
The causes of the ionospheric annual asymmetry, which refers to a larger averaged electron density at geomagnetic conjugate latitudes in December than in June, remain an...- publication PDF

A criterion for new particle formation in the sulfur-rich Atlanta atmosphere
A simple dimensionless parameter, L, is shown to determine whether or not new particle formation can occur in the atmosphere on a given day. The criterion accounts for the...- publication PDF
