Jerry Mahlman, an affiliate professor at Princeton and director of its
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory, is one of those computer jocks that Lindzen waves impatiently away.
Additionally, research combining global models and convection-permitting models will allow for a more reliable focus on precipitation extremes occurring at time scales shorter (e.g., hourly) than the ones considered in this study.--Salvatore Pascale (Princeton University and NOAA

The ocean general circulation model (OGCM) applied to this system was based on version 3 of the
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) Modular Ocean Model (MOM) [10].
FrEaA[micro]licher and his co-authors showed that the change in ocean heat uptake in the polar regions has a larger effect on global mean temperature than a change in low-latitude oceans, a mechanism known as "ocean-heat uptake efficacy." This mechanism was first explored in a 2010 paper by FrEaA[micro]licher's co-author, Michael Winton, a researcher at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) on Princeton's Forrestal Campus.
But Thomas Knutson, a climate scientist at the
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory in Princeton, N.J., says the results suggest that conditions favoring Sandy-like storms will be less common.
In 2008, a group led by Thomas Knutson of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL) in Princeton, New Jersey, projected a marked reduction in the overall number of tropical storms and hurricanes in the western North Atlantic Ocean.
Whitehead was cited "for his fundamental contributions to
geophysical fluid dynamics and physical oceanography, for which his laboratory and observational studies of rotating hydraulic flows have been particularly illuminating."
