Research topics

  • The quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO): How can the QBO be modeled realistically starting from explicitly simulated convection and atmospheric waves?
  • Interaction between waves and the large scale mean circulation: How does this interaction work in a numerical model?
  • Global atmospheric models: How to couple dynamics and physical processes for realistic simulations?
