I study tropical ocean-atmosphere coupled processes:
how the transfer of energy, freshwater, and momentum across the air-sea interface affects the tropical upper ocean and lower atmosphere
how ocean-atmosphere communication affects the frequency, intensity, and organization of convection
how well these processes are represented in climate models.
