Description
The precipitation structure of supercell thunderstorms (e.g., low-precipitation(LP), classic (CL), high-precipitation (HP)) has been associated with differing severeweather threats (wind, hail, or tornadoes) to the public, thus motivating work exa...

Description
The response of the atmospheric circulation to global warming is still not well known. A specific area of interest is the westerlies of the Northern Hemisphere, most notably the strengthening or weakening of the westerlies, which could change mid-...
