mountain waves, downslope winds, and orographic precipitation. I joined the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of Colorado at Boulder in January of 2008. Investigating ...

My research focuses on investigating kinematic and microphysical processes in orographic precipitation ... atmospheric circulation for assessing the impact of climate change on precipitation in ...

Dynamics and microphysics of orographic precipitation (since 2006 ... were used to study the dynamics of towering cumuli over the Santa Catalina Mountains in Arizona during their summer monsoon, and ...

Research on orographic precipitation in the Tianshan Mountains further emphasized how altitude and local conditions affect DSD. The study found that the concentration of raindrops varied ...

indicate that glaciogenic seeding of orographic clouds in the Medicine Bow and Sierra Madre can increase precipitation, although the amounts and optimal seeding conditions remain rather uncertain.

In the northern Sierra Nevada, snow will fall in feet — not inches. And in the Northern California Coastal Range, a general 5 ...
