On the intermittency of hot plasma loops in the solar corona
A recent analysis has suggested that the heating of plasma loops in the solar corona depends not just on the Poynting flux but also on processes yet to be identified. This...- publication PDF

How does LCL height influence deep convective updraft width?
Previous studies have hypothesized that the width of deep convection should positively scale with lifting condensation level (LCL) height. To evaluate this hypothesis, we...- publication PDF
