Severe Storms Research

My primary research interests lie with understanding the influence of environmental variability on the evolution and severe weather production of severe convective storms. More specifically, I’m interested in projects relating to:

  • Maintenance of supercells and mesoscale convective systems
  • Numerical modeling of severe storms
  • Storm interaction with complex terrain
  • Impact of heterogeneous environments (temporally or spatially varying) on storm evolution

Refereed publications:

Environmental Evolution of Long-Lived Supercell Thunderstorms in the Great Plains

Python-Based Supercell Tracking for Coarse Temporal and Spatial Resolution Numerical Model Simulations

An Observational Analysis Quantifying the Distance of Supercell-Boundary Interactions in the Great Plains

Creating a More Realistic Idealized Supercell Thunderstorm Evolution via Incorporation of Base-State Environmental Variability

Partnering Research, Education, and Operations via a Cool Season Severe Weather Soundings Program

The Impact of the Nocturnal Transition on the Lifetime and Evolution of Supercell Thunderstorms in the Great Plains

Impact of Environmental Heterogeneity on the Dynamics of a Dissipating Supercell Thunderstorm

Observations of the 9 June 2009 Dissipating Supercell from VORTEX2

Base-state Substitution: An Idealized Modeling Technique for Approximating Environmental Heterogeneity

Impact of Environmental Variations on Simulated Squall Lines Interacting with Terrain

Forecasting the Maintenance of Mesoscale Convective Systems Crossing the Appalachian Mountains
