The role of Lagrangian drift in the generation of surface waves by wind
A nonlinear stability analysis entirely in the Lagrangian frame is conducted, revealing the fundamental role of the wave-induced mean flow in modifying further wave growth and providing new insight in...

... “One of my big concerns is that the trust in science and in scientists is broken,” says Freilich. It weighs on her that scientists might not be able to follow through on the promises they made to community partners, such as sharing the air-quality findings in a timely manner."

This research emerged from a community science program. We analyzed hydrogen sulfide data, including an air monitor that we installed above the Salton Sea. We found that H2S is under reported. H2S impacts health and quality of life.
