Subtropical mode water variability in a climatologically forced model in the...
A climatologically forced high-resolution model is used to examine variability of subtropical mode water (STMW) in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. Despite the use of annually...- publication PDF

Roles of meridional overturning in subpolar Southern Ocean SST trends:...
One of the most puzzling observed features of recent climate has been a multidecadal surface cooling trend over the subpolar Southern Ocean (SO). In this study we use large...- publication PDF

Is Proxima Centauri b habitable? A study of atmospheric loss
We address the important question of whether the newly discovered exoplanet, Proxima Centauri b (PCb), is capable of retaining an atmosphere over long periods of time. This is...- publication PDF

Sources and secondary production of organic aerosols in the northeastern...
Most intensive field studies investigating aerosols have been conducted in summer, and thus, wintertime aerosol sources and chemistry are comparatively poorly understood. An...- publication PDF

Modulation of shallow-water equatorial waves due to a varying equivalent...
The dynamics of convectively coupled equatorial waves (CCEWs) is analyzed in an idealized model of the large-scale atmospheric circulation. The model is composed of a linear...- publication PDF

Comparisons of electromagnetic scattering properties of real hailstones and spheroids
Severe (>2.5 cm) hail causes >$5 billion in damage annually in the United States. However, radar sizing of hail remains challenging. Typically, spheroids are used to...- publication PDF
