Thermal chains and entrainment in cumulus updrafts. Part II: Analysis of...
Research has suggested that the structure of deep convection often consists of a series of rising thermals, or "thermal chain," which contrasts with existing conceptual models...- publication PDF

Exploring oxidation in the remote free troposphere: Insights from...
Earth's atmosphere oxidizes the greenhouse gas methane and other gases, thus determining their lifetimes and oxidation products. Much of this oxidation occurs in the remote,...- publication PDF
