Projected changes in South Asian monsoon low pressure systems
Monsoon low pressure systems (MLPSs) are among the most important synoptic-scale disturbances of the South Asian summer monsoon. Potential changes in their characteristics in a...- publication PDF

Are we unnecessarily constraining the agility of complex process-based models?
In this commentary we suggest that hydrologists and land-surface modelers may be unnecessarily constraining the behavioral agility of very complex physics-based models. We argue...- publication PDF

Critical appraisal of data used to infer record UVI in the tropical Andes
When the data sets that suggested record high UVI values at Mt Licancabur, and Laguna Blanca, Bolivia are reviewed in full, we find that the reported peak values are incorrect,...- publication PDF

Climatological characteristics of typical daily precipitation
Precipitation is often quantified by the amount that falls over a given period of time but not the rate at which most of it falls or the rate associated with the most frequent...- publication PDF

A global climatology of wind-wave interaction
Generally, ocean waves are thought to act as a drag on the surface wind so that momentum is transferred downward, from the atmosphere into the waves. Recent observations have...- publication PDF
