Reduced risk of North American cold extremes due to continued Arctic Sea ice loss
In early January 2014, an Arctic air outbreak brought extreme cold and heavy snowfall to central and eastern North America, causing widespread disruption and monetary losses....- publication PDF

The dehydration of water worlds via atmospheric losses
We present a three-species multi-fluid magnetohydrodynamic model (H+, H2O+, and e(-)), endowed with the requisite atmospheric chemistry, that is capable of accurately...- publication PDF

Can we do better than the grid survey: Optimal synoptic surveys in presence...
Regular grid ("lawnmower") survey is a classical strategy for synoptic sampling of the ocean. Is it possible to achieve a more effective use of available resources if one takes...- publication PDF

Thermal chains and entrainment in cumulus updrafts. Part I: Theoretical description
Recent studies have shown that cumulus updrafts often consist of a succession of discrete rising thermals with spherical vortex-like circulations. In this paper, a theory is...- publication PDF
