Jhordanne J. Jones
Welcome!
Hi, I'm Jhordanne, a NOAA Climate & Global Change postdoc fellow hosted by Purdue University.
My current research examines the degree of predictability we can achieve from large-scale environmental phenomena for seasonal tropical cyclone activity.
Tools being used to explore this TC-environment predictability are global reanalysis datasets, climate model output and simulations.
