Observations of the Upper Ocean from Autonomous Platforms during the Passage of Extratropical Cyclone Epsilon (2020)
… (2020) was a late-season, category-3 tropical cyclone that underwent extratropical transition and became Extratropical Cyclone Epsilon on 26 October. The upper ocean response to the passage of the storm was observed by three types of autonomous platforms: the eXpendable Spar buoy, the …

A Wall of Smoke: Understanding the Drivers of the June 2023 Canadian Wildfire Smoke Event for New York City
… the fires. We conclude that a strong, stationary extratropical cyclone east of the fires organized the smoke plume and advected smoke into New York City. This smoke remained at high concentrations throughout the boundary layer and lower troposphere. Additionally, the diurnal cycle of the source …

Identifying Dry Intrusion Outflows in Present and Future Climates with Machine Learning
… are one of the key airstreams associated with extratropical cyclones. They are known to exacerbate the impacts of mid-latitude weather through mixing with the boundary layer and enhancing atmosphere-surface interactions. Currently, DIs are identified with Lagrangian trajectory analysis, which …

Precipitation growth processes in the comma head region of an east coast winter storm
On 7 February 2020, a rapidly deepening extratropical cyclone impacted the east coast of the United States, contributing 20-30 cm of snowfall in its comma head region. As part of the Investigation of Microphysics and Precipitation for Atlantic Coast-Threatening Snowstorms (IMPACTS) field campaign, …

Statistical models for extreme weather events
… in winter is from the passage of low-pressure extratropical cyclones from the North Atlantic. The second aim of this thesis is to quantify the risk associated with extreme wind speed events, which we call windstorms, arising from an extratropical cyclone system. First, we develop a model …

Identifying Synoptic Controls on Boundary Layer Thermodynamic and Cloud Properties Using a Regional Forecast Model
… across the cold front of midlatitude synoptic cyclones in the Eastern North Atlantic (ENA). Simulation output is compared against observation from satellite and retrievals from ground-based observations at Graciosa Island in the Azores. Composite transects across the cold front reveal a …
