Models of non-Boussinesq lock-exchange flow
Nearly all analytical models of lock-exchange flow are based on the shallow-water approximation. Since the latter approximation fails at the leading edges of the mutually...- publication PDF

A posteriori subgrid-scale model tests based on the conditional means of...
Traditional a posteriori tests of subgrid-scale (SGS) models often compare large eddy simulation (LES) profiles of various statistics with measurements. In this study we propose...- publication PDF

Observation of quiet‐time mid‐latitude joule heating and comparisons with...
Joule heating is a major energy sink in the solar wind‐magnetosphere‐ionosphere system and modeling it is key to understanding the impact of space weather on the neutral...- publication PDF

Assessment of uncertainty sources in snow cover simulation in the Tibetan Plateau
Snow cover over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) plays an important role in Asian climate. State-of-the-art models, however, show significant simulation biases. In this study, we assess...- publication PDF

Evaluation of the N2O rate of change to understand the stratospheric...
The Brewer-Dobson Circulation (BDC) determines the distribution of long-lived tracers in the stratosphere; therefore, their changes can be used to diagnose changes in the BDC....- publication PDF

Detecting clouds associated with jet engine ice crystal icing
In the past two decades, more than 150 jet engine power-loss and damage events have been attributed to a phenomenon known as ice crystal icing (ICI). Ingestion of large numbers...- publication PDF

Processes regulating short-lived species in the tropical tropopause layer
A one-dimensional model of vertical transport in the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) is developed. The model uses vertical advection, a convective source, and a chemical sink to...- publication PDF
