Analysis, Numerical Simulation, and Diagnosis of Extratropical Weather Systems.

摘要

My long-term goal is to contribute to the advancement of the observations, structural analysis, dynamical diagnosis, and numerical prediction of the life cycles of synoptic-scale and mesoscale weather systems. This includes the influence of planetary-scale, inter-annual and intra-seasonal variability on their evolution. These weather systems include: mid-latitude and arctic oceanic and land-falling cyclones, fronts and their associated cloud, wind, and precipitation systems; upper-level jet streams and clear-air turbulence, extreme topographic flows and their interactions with the ocean.
