Simulating solar near-surface Rossby waves by inverse cascade from...
Rossby waves are found at several levels in the Sun, most recently in its supergranule layer. We show that Rossby waves in the supergranule layer can be excited by an inverse...- publication PDF

Survival of snow in the melting layer: Relative humidity influence
This study quantifies how far snow can fall into the melting layer (ML) before all snow has melted by examining a combination of in situ observations from aircraft measurements...- publication PDF
