  • A one-dimensional cloud model with trimodal convective outflow 

    Folkins, Ian. 2009. "A one-dimensional cloud model with trimodal convective outflow." Journal of Climate 22(23): 6437-6455.
    The author describes a one-dimensional cloud model designed to investigate the relationships between stratiform downdrafts, congestus outflow, stability, and relative humidity in the tropical lower troposphere. In the ...

  • Temperature, relative humidity, and divergence response to high rainfall events in the tropics: Observations and models 

    Mitovski, Toni, Ian Folkins, Knut von Salzen, and Michael Sigmond. 2010. "Temperature, relative humidity, and divergence response to high rainfall events in the tropics: Observations and models." Journal of Climate 23(13): 3613-3625.
    Radiosonde measurements and Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42 rainfall are used to construct composite anomaly patterns of temperature, relative humidity, and divergence about high rainfall events in the ...
