Fields of interest
Atmospheric gravity waves, orographic flows, atmospheric dynamics, atmospheric modeling, airborne observational research
Description of scientific projects
Current Projects:
Improving process understanding of convection-generated gravity waves and their parameterizations in weather and climate models
Observations of pyroconvection forcing orographic-like flows
Feel free to reach out about projects on anything gravity waves (small-scale observation, wave dynamics, gravity wave drag and regional responses, influence of GWs on NWP and in climate). Also, orographic flows, whether forced by mountains or convective plumes in a sheared environment.
