Length of a minimum as predictor of next solar cycle's strength
Motivated by a prevailing view that a long minimum leads to a weak sunspot cycle, we estimate the correlation coefficients between the length of a cycle minimum and (i) the...- publication PDF

Mesoscale phenomena and their contribution to the global response: A focus...
An important question that is being increasingly studied across subdisciplines of Heliophysics is "how do mesoscale phenomena contribute to the global response of the system?"...- publication PDF

Air quality impacts of European wildfire emissions in a changing climate
Wildfires are not only a threat to human property and a vital element of many ecosystems, but also an important source of air pollution. In this study, we first review the...- publication PDF

Energy transport in the thermosphere during the solar storms of April 2002
The dramatic solar storm events of April 2002 deposited a large amount of energy into the Earth's upper atmosphere, substantially altering the thermal structure, the chemical...- publication PDF
