Energetic submesoscales maintain strong mixed layer stratification during an...
Atmospheric storms are an important driver of changes in upper-ocean stratification and small-scale (1-100m) turbulence. Yet, the modifying effects of submesoscale (0.1-10 km)...- publication PDF

A criterion for new particle formation in the sulfur-rich Atlanta atmosphere
A simple dimensionless parameter, L, is shown to determine whether or not new particle formation can occur in the atmosphere on a given day. The criterion accounts for the...- publication PDF

An observational study of a coastal barrier jet induced by a landfalling typhoon
In this study, the structure and evolution of a coastal barrier jet (CBJ) along the east coast of Taiwan is documented using operational Doppler radars. The formation of the CBJ...- publication PDF

Can we reconstruct the formation of large open-ocean polynyas in the...
Large open-ocean polynyas, defined as ice-free areas within the sea ice pack, have only rarely been observed in the Southern Ocean over the past decades. In addition to smaller...- publication PDF
