An evaluation of snow initializations in NCEP global and regional forecasting...
Snow plays a major role in land-atmosphere interactions, but strong spatial heterogeneity in snow depth (SD) and snow water equivalent (SWE) makes it challenging to evaluate...- publication PDF

Hydraulically‐vulnerable trees survive on deep‐water access during droughts i...
Deep-water access is arguably the most effective, but under-studied, mechanism that plants employ to survive during drought. Vulnerability to embolism and hydraulic safety...- publication PDF

Impact of mixing and chemical change on ozone-tracer relations in the polar v...
Tracer-tracer relations have been used for a long time to separate physico-chemical change from change caused by transport processes. In particular, for more than a decade,...- publication PDF
