Welcome!
I’m a
graduate student in the Department of Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences at
the University
at Albany, where I am working toward my Ph.D. under the advisement of Chris Thorncroft.
My research focuses on the mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) observed over
Africa and their
interaction
with African easterly waves (AEWs). I am examining the two-way interaction
between
MCSs
and AEWs within the West African monsoon. One focus is the role of AEWs in
initiating
convection.
Another is the impact of the convection on the genesis and life-cycle of
African easterly
waves.
