Effects of increasing the category resolution of the sea ice thickness...
Many modern sea ice models used in global climate models represent the subgrid-scale heterogeneity in sea ice thickness with an ice thickness distribution (ITD), which improves...- publication PDF

Are all flare ribbons simply connected to the corona?
We consider the observational basis for the belief that flare ribbons in the chromosphere result from energy transport from the overlying corona. We study ribbons of small...- publication PDF
