theory in that as climate and oceans warm, low laying clouds form less frequently, which lowers the albedo of the earth with more infrared radiation is absorbed rather than reflected, leading to a warmer climate with less clouds. As most in of her research, these findings support a

Clement is a climate scientist studying atmospheric and oceanic interactions related to climate change. She studies the physics of climate modeling, and seeks to understand the mechanisms of climate change to refine a global climate model. Clement is currently a professor at
233:(ENSO), which is known to play a large role in the climate system. Clement and her researchers somewhat controversially suggest that atmospheric and ocean dynamics need not be connected in order to understand tropical climate and their associated global patterns.
240:. Clement was nominated for this award because of her research in tropical atmospheric and ocean dynamics. In conducting this research, she focused on how the atmosphere and ocean interact with both orbital changes and the
