Hamish Prince, an intern at CW3E (studying at the University of Wisconsin), recently published a paper (Prince et al., 2021) in Geophysical Research Letters along with co-authors from CW3E and JPL including Peter Gibson (now at NIWA, New Zealand), Mike DeFlorio, Thomas Corringham, Alison Cobb, Bin Guan, Marty Ralph, and Duane Waliser. This study contributes to the goals of CW3E’s 2019-2024 Strategic Plan to support Atmospheric River (AR) Research and Applications by furthering our understanding of AR dynamics.
