Evidence of Isotopic Fractionation During Vapor Exchange Between the Atmosphere and the Snow Surface in Greenland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03)Several recent studies from both Greenland and Antarctica have reported significant changes in the water isotopic composition of near‐surface snow between precipitation events. These changes have been linked to isotopic ... -
Shortwave absorptance in a tropical cloudy atmosphere: Reconciling calculations and observations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-10-04)[1] The absorption of shortwave (SW) radiation by clouds is a topic surrounded by contradictory reports and controversy. Some studies have shown large discrepancies between observed SW absorption and absorption predicted ... -
Synoptic Conditions and Moisture Sources Actuating Extreme Precipitation in Nepal
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-12)Despite the vast literature on heavy‐precipitation events in South Asia, synoptic conditions and moisture sources related to extreme precipitation in Nepal have not been addressed systematically. We investigate two types ...
