Teaching

Conceptual analysis of biophysical controls on circulation at multiple scales. In-depth investigation of spatial and temporal variability in climate, including advanced data analysis and climate modeling.

This course provides an overview of turbulent dynamics of boundary layers and clouds. The goal is for students to develop physical understanding of turbulent dynamics and prototype models that can form the basis of parameterizations in weather and climate models.

Dynamical principles that govern large-scale atmospheric motions. Theoretical and observational analyses of atmospheric motion systems. Application of theoretical treatment to observed atmospheric behavior.
