Research interests
- Air-water interactions: physical driving of currents and waves in large lakes and oceans, interface exchanges of heat and moisture, turbulence
- Synoptic-dynamic and mesoscale meteorology: storm system dynamics from the cyclone-scale to mesoscale convective systems and individual convective storms
