Relationship between level of neutral buoyancy and dual-Doppler observed...
Although it is generally accepted that the level of neutral buoyancy (LNB) is only a coarse estimate of updraft depth, the LNB is still used to understand and predict storm...- publication PDF

When will MISR detect rising high clouds?
It is predicted by both theory and models that high-altitude clouds will occur higher in the atmosphere as a result of climate warming. This produces a positive longwave...- publication PDF

Off-equatorial deep-cycle turbulence forced by tropical instability waves in...
The equatorial Pacific cold tongue is a site of large heat absorption by the ocean. This heat uptake is enhanced by a daily cycle of shear turbulence beneath the mixed...- publication PDF

ENSO bimodality and extremes
Tropical sea surface temperature (SST) and winds vary on a wide range of timescales and have a substantial impact on weather and climate across the globe. Here we study the...- publication PDF
