CESSRST Postdoctoral Fellow Spotlight
Christopher C. Collimore successfully delivered a talk titled 'Evidence of High Aerosol Concentrations Near Atlantic Cloud Clusters that Developed into Tropical Cyclones​' at the American Meteorological Society's Hurricane Conference. Using satellite data, Chris
showed that cloud clusters that develop into tropical cyclones are surrounded by more aerosols than clusters that come
close to developing into TCs but fizzle
out. Thus, indicating that aerosols don't inhibit the tropical cyclone formation process.
