个人简介
Our lab studies a number of interesting processes in the atmosphere and at the Earth's surface, and how those processes are impacted by climate change. Below are the current research topics we are working on.
DUST STORMS AND THE SALTON SEA
Just a hundred miles to the east of San Diego, one of the largest inland lakes in the Western US is drying up as a result of human activity. In order to understand how the shrinking of the Sea will impact future frequency and intensity of dust storms there we need to better understand the dynamics of dust outbreaks in this region. To address this need we have built and instrumented a research site that is providing continuous measurements of aerosols, the structure of the oundary layer, water vapor, and radaitive fluxes. We will be using this information to improve understanding of the underlying physics, and model estimates of regional dust activity.
LAB COLLABORATOR ROBERT FROUIN WAITS FOR THE SUN PHOTOMETER TO "WAKE UP" AND START MAKING MEASUREMENTS.
RADIATIVE FORCING OF DUST AND GLOBAL CLIMATE
There is a large amount of uncertainty related to the magnitude of the dust direct radiative effect. In order to address these uncertainties--and help to evaluate the representation of dust in climate models--we are developing and testing new methods to observationally estimate the magnitude of the dust direct raditaive effect.
Research Topics
Atmospheric Aerosols and Chemistry
Climate Sciences
Ocean-Atmosphere Interactions
Remote Sensing and Satellite Oceanography
Tropical Meteorology and Oceanography
