Term projects

Each student in ATM 623 is required to carry out an original model-based investigation on a subject of their choice. Here is a list of the projects completed in Spring 2015.

  • Christine Bloecker: Orbital variations versus carbon dioxide- a comparison of climate change effects
  • Oscar Chimborazo: Patterns of rainfall change under a pseudo-global-warming scenario over Ecuador
  • Chris Colose: Exploring a range of obliquities for exoplanet Kepler 186f
  • Alex Gallagher: Analyzing Sensitivity of Atmospheric Energy Transport to Orbital Eccentricity and Obliquity
  • Ted Letcher: An Investigation into the WRF Energy Balance and Energy Transport
  • Lanxi Min: Investigating vegetation feedback using the single column model
  • Lance Rayborn: A Radiative Kernel Approach to Feedbacks Resulting From Ocean Heat Uptake Patterns
  • Cameron Rencurrel: Analyzing the Insensitivity of Planetary Heat Transport to Variations in Ocean Heat Transport
  • Geng Xia: Wind Farm impact on Land Surface Temperature in WRF simulation
