Sublimation of snow
Snow is a vital part of water resources, and sublimation may remove 10%–90% of snowfall from the system. To improve our understanding of the physics that govern sublimation...- publication PDF

Predictable decadal forcing of the North Atlantic jet speed by sub-polar...
It has been demonstrated that decadal variations in the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) can be predicted by current forecast models. While Atlantic Multidecadal Variability...- publication PDF

Internal climate variability obscures future freezing rain changes despite...
Although numerous studies have projected changes in freezing rain under future climate conditions, the internal variability of freezing rain remains poorly quantified. Here, we...- publication PDF
