DOI: 10.1002/joc.5093
Abstract: The characteristics of overlying synoptic conditions play an important role in the production of lake-effect snowfall within the Great Lakes region of North America. With a synoptic climatological approach, the synoptic-scale patterns conducive to lake-effect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jglr.2020.11.013
Abstract: Abstract It is well known that lake-effect snowfall (LES) attributed to Lake Michigan has a significant impact on transportation in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan (LPM). Better understanding of the inter-annual variability and factors contributing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jamc-d-17-0188.1
Abstract: AbstractThe Ontario Winter Lake-Effect Systems (OWLeS) field campaign during the winter season of 2013/14 provided unprecedented data with regard to the structure and behavior of long-lake-axis-parallel (LLAP) lake-effect storms. One of the interesting characteristics of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jamc-d-19-0069.1
Abstract: Using a temporal synoptic index, synoptic-scale atmospheric patterns suitable for lake-effect snow downwind of Lakes Erie and Ontario are identified and analyzed from 1950 to 2009. In response to prior research noting a trend reversal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/mwr-d-20-0253.1
Abstract: The distribution and intensity of lake- and sea-effect (hereafter lake-effect) precipitation are strongly influenced by the mode of landfalling lake-effect systems. Here, we used idealized large-eddy simulations to investigate the downstream evolution and coastal-to-inland transition… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/waf-d-19-0153.1
Abstract: Lake-effect snow (LeS) storms are driven by strong turbulent surface layer (SL) and planetary boundary layer (PBL) fluxes of heat and moisture caused by the flow of cold air over relatively warm water. To investigate… read more here.
