Evaluation of an analytical model for the maximum intensity of tropical cyclones
Several studies have shown that the intensity of numerically simulated tropical cyclones can exceed (by 50%) a theoretical upper limit. To investigate the cause, this study...- publication PDF

Large-eddy simulation of biogenic VOC chemistry during the DISCOVER-AQ 2011 campaign
Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are oxidized quickly in the atmosphere to form oxygenated VOC (OVOC) and play crucial roles in the formation of ozone and secondary...- publication PDF
