On the responses of mesosphere and lower thermosphere temperatures to...
Observations from lidars and satellites have shown that large neutral temperature increases and decreases occur in the middle and low latitudes of the mesosphere and lower...- publication PDF

A study of the urban boundary layer using different urban parameterizations...
In the last two decades, mesoscale models (MMs) with urban canopy parameterizations have been widely used to study urban boundary layer processes. Different studies show that...- publication PDF

A simple model of ozone-temperature coupling in the tropical lower stratosphere
Observations show strong correlations between large-scale ozone and temperature variations in the tropical lower stratosphere across a wide range of timescales. We quantify this...- publication PDF

Bjerknes-like compensation in the wintertime North Pacific
Observational and model evidence has been mounting that mesoscale eddies play an important role in air–sea interaction in the vicinity of western boundary currents and can...- publication PDF

Impact of equinoctial high-speed stream structures on thermospheric responses
We examine thermospheric neutral density response to 172 solar wind high-speed streams (HSSs) and the associated stream interfaces during the equinox seasons of 2002–2008. HSSs...- publication PDF

Modeling studies of the impact of high-speed streams and co-rotating...
Changes in the thermosphere-ionosphere system caused by high-speed streams in the solar wind, and the co-rotating interaction regions they engender, are studied using a...- publication PDF
