Halaby Fellowship: A tribute to Najeeb Halaby’s legacy that builds on his contributions to aviation meteorology.
Arman’s focus under the Halaby Fellowship includes modeling of transoceanic aircraft’s deviation maneuvers due to convective weather events and finding effective convective weather avoidance strategies based on using NCAR’s Convective Diagnosis Oceanic (CDO) and Cloud Top Height (CTH) weather products.
