My main research interests are focused on large-scale dynamics and transport in the atmosphere and oceans, and its controls on the distribution of trace constituents. This is important for several different aspects of global change, including stratospheric ozone depletion, air pollution, and global warming. In recent years research activities have expanded to include the atmosphere of other planets, air quality, and urban heat.
Current Projects
- Urban Heat and Air Quality
- Polar Vortices on Earth, Mars and beyond.
- Stratospheric Ozone Hole and impact on weather and climate.
- Ventilation of Southern Oceans, and connection to overlying winds.
- Tropical Width and Jet Trends
- Tropospheric Transport
- Transport Timescales
