The effects of atmosphere-ocean-wave coupling during tropical cyclone
Published 2018“…A sea state dependent spray parametrisation was developed, where the spray generation was estimated from the wave energy dissipated through whitecapping was developed as part of this study. Furthermore, the effects of atmosphere-ocean coupling on a TC are investigated, where the influence of sea surface temperature and ocean currents is considered. …”

Pnictogen-halide semiconductors for photovoltaics
Published 2025“…<p>Indoor photovoltaic (IPV) development has garnered increasing interest in recent years because of the potential to sustainably provide energy to the billions of autonomous devices part of the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem. The emission spectra of indoor light sources are narrower and blue-shifted compared to the standard terrestrial outdoor AM 1.5G solar spectrum, which is the reference spectrum for standard testing of solar energy conversion systems, with a specified standard irradiance of 1000 W/m2[1]; AM stands for air mass coefficient. …”
