Paul E. Roundy

Paul E. Roundy is a Professor in the Department of Atmospheric & Environmental Sciences at the University at Albany. His research focuses on tropical atmospheric and oceanic waves, their interactions with convection, and impacts on global weather/climate systems. Key interests include tropical cyclone formation modulation, ENSO dynamics, and intraseasonal oscillations.

Education: Advanced degrees in atmospheric sciences (specifics not detailed in text).

Research: Develops forecasting systems for tropical cyclones using convectively coupled wave analysis. Investigates MJO (Madden-Julian Oscillation) and Kelvin wave interactions with large-scale circulation patterns. Utilizes extended EOF techniques for climate mode tracking.

Tools/Projects: Maintains operational forecast systems (e.g., tropical cyclone probability forecasts) and visualization tools for real-time climate diagnostics. Collaborates with NOAA and NASA datasets.
