Our research efforts are focused on improving our understanding of climate dynamics, such as what controls rainfall in the tropics, using satellite observations and model simulations.

See our publications (Bui et al., 2016 JAS; Bui et al., 2019 CD; Bui et al., 2019 SOLA; Bui & Yu, 2021 JMSJ) 

We are interested in understanding the phenomena of the tropics, including the Madden-Julian oscillation and El Niño-Southern oscillation, as well as their interaction and how they change under global warming.

See our publications (Bui & Maloney, 2018 GRL; Maloney et al., 2019 NCC; Bui & Maloney, 2019 JC; Bui & Maloney, 2019 GRL; Bui & Maloney, 2020 JAMES; Bui & Maloney, 2022 A; Bui et al., 2023 npj; Bui & Hsu, 2023 GRL; Bui et al., 2023 JC)

We use satellite observations and models to understand the role of ocean coupling to disturbances like the MJO and diurnal cycle that further impact weather and climate.

We seek to understand processes influenced on extreme climates, including wildfires, drought, and flood. We examine how these extremes respond to global warming, how fast the impact will come, and how strong it will be.
