About

I am an Associate Professor in Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences & Civil and Environmental Engineering at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology. I received my M.S. and Ph.D. in Meteorology from Penn State and my B.S. in Atmospheric Sciences from the University of North Carolina at Asheville. Currently at SD Mines, I am the program director of the Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences Program.

My research interests are the remote sensing and modeling of surface features and land-surface processes with emphasis on applications in operational meteorology, risk and hazard assessment, numerical weather and regional climate prediction, and land-surface hydrology. In particular, I’m interested in developing tools to examine the role of land cover, vegetation and subsurface processes on the hydrologic cycle and the influence in climate change and extreme weather events on natural and designed surface systems.

My teaching specialties revolve around climate change and resiliency, numerical weather prediction, boundary layer meteorology, computing in the geosciences, numerical methods and environmental modeling. I've also taught courses in remote sensing, and synoptic meteorology.

Metrics description

h-index

A scientist has an h-index if h of his N publications are cited at least h times each, while the remaining (N - h) publications are cited no more than h times each.

https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.0507655102

i10-index

The number of the author's publications that received at least 10 links each.

https://scholar.googleblog.com/2011/11/google-scholar-citations-open-to-all.html

m-index

The researcher's m-index is numerically equal to the ratio of his h-index to the number of years that have passed since the first publication.

https://harzing.com/publications/white-papers/reflections-on-the-h-index

o-index

The geometric mean of the h-index and the number of citations of the most cited article of the scientist.

https://arxiv.org/abs/1511.01545

g-index

For a given set of articles, sorted in descending order of the number of citations that these articles received, the g-index is the largest number such that the g most cited articles received (in total) at least g² citations.

https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-006-0144-7

w-index

If w articles of a researcher have at least 10w citations each and other publications are less than 10(w+1) citations, then the researcher's w-index is equal to w.
