Samuel Smith studies large-scale atmospheric and climate patterns, focusing on how moisture moves through the atmosphere and how major weather-influencing oscillations behave and evolve. Recent work examines atmospheric rivers (long streams of concentrated water vapor), the North Atlantic Oscillation, and the Southern Annular Mode, along with related questions about the water cycle in present and future climates.
