Characterization of small scale atmopheric dynamics from radar and in situ measurement techniques
Overview of the research
My research is mainly focused on the characterization of atmospheric turbulence from the boundary layer up to the lower stratosphere, at various latitudes and in both convective and stratified conditions, using ground-based remote sensing and in situ techniques. For this objective, I analyze observation data and compare with theories and models.
