Tom’s research focuses on: targeted observation and seeding using autonomous unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), resolving credibility issues of measurements made with scaled-down versions of conventional measuring devices, and applying scientifically and engineering sound principles as part of a solution to socio-economic problems with atmospheric interfaces (e.g., Fog/low stratus deck dispersal to enhance solar energy production, Inadvertent weather modification).
