Research Interests:
Research involves use of global climate models to examine how climate might
change in the future as atmospheric greenhouse gases increase, with an emphasis on
changes in the hydrologic cycle and the Arctic climate system. There are two primary
components of the research: one is on the impact of climate change on large river
systems, and the other is on the role of climate feedbacks in high northern latitudes.
Of particular interest are water and energy budgets and interactions and feedbacks
among climate variables such as clouds, atmospheric water vapor, radiation, atmospheric
and oceanic transport, and changes in permafrost and active layer depths in high northern
latitudes.
Related teaching activities include an interdisciplinary upper level undergraduate
seminar course on climate change.
