Intermittency in precipitation: duration, frequency, intensity, and amounts...
Intermittency is a core characteristic of precipitation, not well described by data and very poorly modeled. Detailed analyses are made of near-global gridded (about 1 degrees)...- publication PDF

How well do we understand and evaluate climate change feedback processes?
Processes in the climate system that can either amplify or dampen the climate response to an external perturbation are referred to as climate feedbacks. Climate sensitivity...- publication PDF
