Juliana Dias

Juliana Dias is a research physicist at the Physical Sciences Laboratory of the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratories in Boulder Colorado. Her main interests include equatorial waves, the coupling between tropical convection and the large-scale atmospheric circulation, tropical-extratropical interactions, and predictability of the atmosphere on daily to seasonal time scales. Her work is focused on various aspects of tropical variability, tropical-extratropical interactions and on how those interact and impact subseasonal to seasonal predictions. Juliana's current projects include developing model diagnostics aimed at improving predictions of subseasonal tropical variability, and assessing the impact of tropical forecast errors in extratropical subseasonal predictions.
