Dependence of daytime thermospheric winds on IMF By as measured from south pole
Winds in the nighttime upper thermosphere are often observed to mimic the ionospheric plasma convection at polar latitudes, and whether the same is true for the daytime winds...- publication PDF

The Secondary Production of Ice in Cumulus Experiment (SPICULE)
The secondary ice process (SIP) is a major microphysical process, which can result in rapid enhancement of ice particle concentration in the presence of preexisting ice. SPICULE...- publication PDF

Reversed ionospheric convections during the November 2004 storm: Impact on...
Using the Assimilative Mapping of Ionospheric Electrodynamics (AMIE) procedure, a particular period (2000-2350 UT on 9 November) in the November 2004 storm is studied. During...- publication PDF

Smoke-charged vortex doubles hemispheric aerosol in the middle stratosphere...
Australian mega-wildfires in the summer of 2019-2020 injected smoke into the stratosphere, causing strong ozone depletion in the lower stratosphere. Here, we model the smoke...- publication PDF

Assimilating observations with spatially correlated errors using a serial...
The serial ensemble square root filter (EnSRF) typically assumes observation errors to be uncorrelated when assimilating the observations one at a time. This assumption causes...- publication PDF

Arctic sea ice in CMIP6
We examine CMIP6 simulations of Arctic sea-ice area and volume. We find that CMIP6 models produce a wide spread of mean Arctic sea-ice area, capturing the observational estimate...- publication PDF
