Using radar observations to evaluate 3-D radar echo structure simulated by the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) version 1 [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2021 The Energy Exascale Earth System Model (E3SM) developed by the Department of Energy has a goal of addressing challenges in understanding the global water cycle. Success depends on correct simulation of cloud and precipitation elements.

Broad-Scale Weather Patterns Encountered during Flight Influence Landbird Stopover Distributions
Remote Sensing, 2020 The dynamic weather conditions that migrating birds experience during flight likely influence where they stop to rest and refuel, particularly after navigating inhospitable terrain or large water bodies, but effects of weather on stopover patterns remain

The Role of Fuel Characteristics and Heat Release Formulations in Coupled Fire-Atmosphere Simulation
Fire, 2023 In this study, we focus on the effects of fuel bed representation and fire heat and smoke distribution in a coupled fire-atmosphere simulation platform for two landscape-scale fires: the 2018 Camp Fire and the 2021 Caldor Fire.

Aviation Bird Hazard in NEXRAD Dual Polarization Weather Radar Confirmed by Visual Observations
International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace, 2015 Birds represent a significant hazard to flying aircraft as illustrated by the “Miracle on the Hudson” encounter in 2009 between U.S. Airways Flight 1549 and a flock of Canada Geese, forcing the flight to ditch in the river.

Bioacoustic Monitoring Reveals Patterns of Landscape Use by Migrating Birds at a Great Lakes Barrier Crossing. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe use a broad geographic‐scale passive acoustic monitoring network to characterize landscape use of migrating songbirds in the Keweenaw peninsula, a major barrier crossing point along the south shore of Lake Superior. Using nearly 3 million acoustic detections of migrants from 18 sites spanning 328 km2, we demonstrate that landscape use is shaped ...
