Fields of interest
atmospheric general circulation, hydrological cycle, precipitation, climate change
Description of scientific projects
I am interested in the atmospheric general circulation and hydrological cycle and how they respond to climate change. Specific topics include the extratropical storm tracks, precipitation extremes, snowfall, the relative humidity distribution, land-ocean contrasts, moist convection, and the role of latent heating in atmospheric dynamics.
