Landscape heterogeneities can have pronounced effects on atmospheric boundary layer processes. Examples include a modification of the boundary layer growth and the generation of mesoscale circulations. My research focuses primarily on the investigation of these processes in hilly and mountainous terrain using a combination of field studies, data analysis, and numerical modeling techniques. I seek to apply my expertise to problems in a multi-disciplinary context such as found at the interface with ecology, atmospheric chemistry, and hydrology. Examples include the venting and regional transport of aerosols and the estimation of regional CO2 fluxes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1734695,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"otheraff":[],"phd-degree":[],"primary":[2378],"research-discipline":[2529],"research-opportunity":[],"training-grant":[],"class_list":["post-1730558","faculty-listing","type-faculty-listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","primary-environmental-sciences","research-discipline-environmental-sciences"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nDe Wekker, Stephan Franz Joseph - Research Faculty Directory<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/med.virginia.edu\/faculty\/faculty-listing\/sfd3d\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"De Wekker, Stephan Franz Joseph - Research Faculty Directory\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Landscape heterogeneities can have pronounced effects on atmospheric boundary layer processes.
