Research Statement
My research focuses on boundary layer processes in complex terrain. My interests start with differences in the radiation and surface energy balance and their resulting effects on boundary layer evolution, and range to the flows driven by these contrasts and their complex interactions with terrain.
My observational studies have covered topographic basins such as Arizona's Meteor Crater (METCRAX 2006, METCRAX-II), Utah's Bingham Canyon Mine (BCM-Experiment), and the Salt Lake Valley (PCAPS, UWFPS), mountainous terrain in the Swiss Alps (DISCHMEX, MATTERHEX) and Utah's West Desert (MATERHORN), and addressed processes ranging from downslope windstorm type flows (METCRAX-II) to fog formation (MATERHORN-FOG, CFOG, CFACT, FATIMA). I have special interest in wind lidar observations, clear-air radiative cooling, and the complex interaction between wintertime cold pool meteorology and air chemistry.
