HUCE Seminar Room MCZ 429
Speaker: Ned Kleiner
Ned will discuss the simple model used to understand the atmospheric blockings.
During the discussion, Ned will introduce the following points:

2. time evolution of the LWA index and its relationship with jet dynamics
3. analogy between atmospheric blocking and traffic jams
