Representation of boundary layer moisture transport in cloud-resolving models
One of the important roles of the PBL is to transport moisture from the surface to the cloud layer. However, how this transport process can be accounted for in cloud-resolving...- publication PDF

Photoreduction of gaseous oxidized mercury changes global atmospheric...
Anthropogenic mercury (Hg(0)) emissions oxidize to gaseous Hg(II) compounds, before deposition to Earth surface ecosystems. Atmospheric reduction of Hg(II) competes with...- publication PDF
