Inverse estimates of the oceanic sources and sinks of natural COâ and the...
We use an inverse method to estimate the global-scale pattern of the air-sea flux of natural COâ, i.e., the component of the COâ flux due to the natural carbon cycle that...- publication PDF

The evolution of mountain waves and rotors in the lee of Pike's Peak under...
A lee-wave--rotor system interacting with an approaching cold front in the lee of Pike's Peak near Colorado Springs, Colorado, on 1 April 1997 is studied observationally and...- publication PDF

Decadal predictability of North Atlantic blocking and the NAO
Can multi-annual variations in the frequency of North Atlantic atmospheric blocking and mid-latitude circulation regimes be skilfully predicted? Recent advances in seasonal...- publication PDF

Reconciling modeled and observed temperature trends over Antarctica
Over the last three decades, ozone depletion over Antarctica has affected temperature and winds in the lower stratosphere, and even in the troposphere and at the surface. The...- publication PDF

Temporal variability of atomic hydrogen from the mesopause to the upper thermosphere
We investigate atomic hydrogen (H) variability from the mesopause to the upper thermosphere, on time scales of solar cycle, seasonal, and diurnal, using measurements made by the...- publication PDF

Characterizing extratropical tropopause bimodality and its relationship to...
Lapse rate tropopause (LRT) heights in the extratropics have been shown to display a bimodal distribution, with one modal maxima above 15 km (typical of the tropical tropopause)...- publication PDF
