Description
This research program is involved in understanding various aspects of the dynamics, structure, and chemistry of planetary atmospheres. Current investigations include studies of the dynamics and internal heat flow of Uranus and Neptune; atmospheric superrotation and circulation of Saturn‘s moon Titan; Saturn ring seismology to reveal properties of Saturn‘s interior; and the thermal structure and chemistry of exoplanetary atmospheres. Potential new projects include a study of atmospheric evolution in Super Earths.
