• Spatiotemporal variation of PM2.5 over the contiguous United States 

  CrowleyFarenga, Remy Michael John (2018-07-20)

  PM2.5 is the set of airborne particulate matter (also known as aerosols) with diameter 2.5 m or smaller. Ambient concentrations of these aerosols have been shown to be highly correlated with premature mortality throughout ...

• Effects of atmospheric profiles on local infrasound propagation 

  Lammers, Andrew R (2018-07-18)

  A deep understanding of the impact of the natural environment on local (< 150 km) infrasound propagation is important, specifically for persistent infrastructure monitoring. Passively sensing the infrasound field provides ...

• The effects of entrainment in the developing and rotating stages of supercell thunderstorms 

  Engelsen, Bryan Nicholas (2018-07-19)

  Entrainment, the process by which turbulent clouds introduce dry air from outside the cloud inward via overturning eddies at the cloud edge, can decrease the cloud buoyancy, and the water and/or ice mass it contains, ...

• An investigation of the development of supercells in the Indiana and Ohio tornado outbreak of 24 August 2016 using a WRF model simulation 

  Gray, Kevin Thomas (2018-07-18)

  On 24 August 2016, a tornado outbreak that produced 24 confirmed tornadoes impacted portions of Indiana and Ohio. Initially elevated multicellular convection transitioned to surface-based supercells between 1700 and 1830 ...

• Microphysical Influences on cold pools 

  Mallinson, Holly M. (2018-07-16)

  Downdrafts extending from within convective clouds to the ground can produce cold pools, regions of air at the surface cooled by melting or sublimating ice and/or evaporation of rain within the downdrafts. These cold pools ...
