A theory of ionospheric response to upward-propagating tides: Electrodynamic...
The atmospheric tide at ionospheric heights is composed of those locally generated and those propagated from below. The role of the latter in producing the variability of the...- publication PDF

Projected drought risk in 1.5°C and 2°C warmer climates
The large socioeconomic costs of droughts make them a crucial target for impact assessments of climate change scenarios. Using multiple drought metrics and a set of simulations...- publication PDF
