High-resolution observations of the near-surface wind field over an isolated mountain and in a steep river canyon [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015 A number of numerical wind flow models have been developed for simulating wind flow at relatively fine spatial resolutions (e.g., ~ 100 m); however, there are very limited observational data available for evaluating these high-resolution models.

Daily black carbon emissions from fires in northern Eurasia for 2002–2015 [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2016 Black carbon (BC) emitted from fires in northern Eurasia is transported and deposited on ice and snow in the Arctic and can accelerate its melting during certain times of the year. Thus, we developed a high spatial resolution (500 m × 500 m) dataset to
