Biography
B.A., M.A. Theoretical physics, Trinity College, Cambridge Univ., U.K., 1976, 1981. -PhD. Physics, McGill University, 1981, Thesis: "The Remote sensing of Rain".
Research Interest
Complex geosystems with structures spanning large ranges of scales, theoretical frameworks (scaling, fractals, multifractals), and data analysis and modelling. Application areas include atmospheric dynamics, climate, turbulence, hydrology, precipitation, topography, geogravity, geomagnetism, and biogeosystems.
