Expertise and
Research Interests
Dynamics of geophysical columnar vortices ranging in scale from small dust devils to fire
whirls, with a primary focus on tornadoes; application of laser-doppler velocimetry to
laboratory measurements in experimental fluid mechanics; earth science education at all
levels, K-12, undergraduate and graduate; meteorological measurements and instrumentation,
especially surface-based instruments for weather observations; post-event analyses of
tornadoes and tornado-producing thunderstorms (debris transport); experimental fluid
mechanics as applied to atmospheric problems. |
