Research

I'm a project scientist in the Climate Analysis Section and collaborate with Dr. Kevin Trenberth and others here at NCAR. My research interests include:

  • The Global Energy Budget as depicted in observations and models.
  • Tropical Dynamics and Meteorology with an empahisis on monsoons.
  • Climate change in the Eurasian/Indian Ocean sector and its coupling with oceanic biogeochemical cycles.

To accomplish most data processing and graphical needs, I use IDL and NCL.
