My research interests involve evaluating extreme events, such as temperature and precipitation extremes as well as strong Arctic cyclones, and how these impact the Arctic. The tools I use for this analysis include data from regional and global models as well as self-organizing maps, which are used to evaluate the data produced in that model output and place the extreme events in the context of the overall system. Since in the ATOC department I am an Instructor Professor, I try to share elements of the research I do when appropriate in my teaching.
