My research is is on numerical simulation of the atmosphere and Earth system. I am working on a project to permit and evaluate kilometer-scale climate modeling with the Community Earth System Model (CESM). Kilometer-scale resolution will allow for storm systems in the...

I work to characterize the atmospheres of planets outside of our Solar System (“exoplanets”), through three-dimensional modeling of their atmospheric circulation patterns (winds and temperature structures). These numerical simulations couple fluid dynamics...

I work on planet formation theory, with a current focus on giant planet formation in a core accretion paradigm. My current work looks at distinctions in the formation of gas giant planets as a result of conditions in their local environment, and how these differences...

Her research is based on the theoretical framework of Galactic Dynamics. Two profoundly mysterious unseen components of galaxies are central supermassive black holes and dark matter halos (massive, invisible halos of matter whose presence is inferred only from their...
