Interaction of jets and submesoscale dynamics leads to rapid ocean ventilation
Ocean ventilation is the process by which climatically important tracers such as heat and carbon are exchanged between the atmosphere and ocean interior. In this paper a series...- publication PDF

New light on an old problem of the cores of solar resonance lines
We reexamine a 50+ yr old problem of deep central reversals predicted for strong solar spectral lines, in contrast to the smaller reversals seen in observations. We examine data...- publication PDF
