Research Areas

  • Machine learning techniques for atmospheric models
  • Great Lakes weather research with coupled atmosphere-lake models: lake-effect snow storms
  • Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) and variable-resolution grid techniques for the dynamical cores of atmospheric General Circulation Models (GCMs)
  • High-resolution (convection-permitting) weather and climate modeling
  • Non-hydrostatic and deep-atmosphere modeling with the Department of Energy Spectral Element dynamical core
  • Development of simpler atmospheric models and test cases for dynamical cores of GCMs, model intercomparisons
  • Impact of volcanic eruptions (Mt. Pinatubo (1991), Hunga Tonga (2022)) on the atmospheric circulation
  • Atmospheric dynamics:
    • Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) and their interaction with the large-scale flow
    • Extratropical cyclones
    • Stratospheric dynamics: Assessments of the tropical Quasi-Biennial Oscillation (QBO), Sudden Stratospheric Warmings (SSWs), the tropical water vapor tape recorder, and the Brewer-Dobson circulation
    • Dynamics of tropical cyclones
  • Subgrid-scale mixing in weather and climate models
  • Physics-dynamics coupling in GCMs
  • Detection of pathways in GCMs (with a current focus on tracer advection)
