Abstract: ABSTRACT Hurricanes cause significant property loss every year. A substantial part of that loss is due to trees destroyed by wind. The destroyed trees block roads and produce a large amount of debris that needs… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/jstars.2018.2873257
Abstract: Conventional scatterometer wind retrieval has been proved effective for low and moderate wind conditions. Under high wind conditions, especially for typhoons, the air–sea interactions are fierce, and usually the sea surface backscattering is complicated by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jpo-d-18-0168.1
Abstract: This paper models the impact of the presence of foam on the short-wave component of surface waves and momentum exchange in the atmospheric boundary layer at high winds. First, physical experiments were carried out in… read more here.
