🚨 New Study Alert!

Our study with @zmoon92.bsky.social & @edougherty.bsky.social offers new insights into how
African Easterly Waves (AEWs), the seeds of Atlantic hurricanes 🌀, are being shaped by a warmer, moister climate.

In our new paper, we investigate how warming & drying in CO from 1981–2021 has affected trends in cool-season precipitation, which provide most of our water resources. 💧❄️

This results in more dry days and less snow days, with more ablation at high altitudes.

It's that time of year to start submitting #AGU25 abstracts!

We invite those studying droughts, floods, extreme precipitation, heatwaves, etc., to submit to our session on Hydrometeorologic extremes (H083) 🏜️⛈️🌊: lnkd.in/gCFPecVE

Abstracts are due July 30!

Every scientist, long before they were a scientist, was a little kid who stood in front of a fish tank or stared up at the stars or turned over a rock to look at the bugs underneath and said “wow”. On the best days, working in science still feels like that.

Excited to share Kelly & I's new GRL paper: We see an intensification of the West African Monsoon, a stronger African Easterly jet, and increase + southern shift in precip over tropical Africa in a warmer climate using MPAS + the PGW method.
