Do you know what is QBO?
Quasi-Biennial Oscillation(QBO) is a very interesting atmospheric
topic. I finish a term paper about QBO for Dr Yanai's class - "Wave motion
in Tropics". You may want to know why the zonal wind in the tropical lower
stratosphere will oscillate from westerly wind to easterly wind in about
2 and half years. Did QBO
relate to El Nino? Welcome to see my
QBO Story!

Beautiful Sunset!
Wow! So beautiful sunset, doesn't it? I took this photo
just right before a strong thunder storm would move into Ames,IA.
That was in May 1997. I lived in Buchanan Hall of Iowa State University.
My Iowa story not just only that.
I remember there was a sleepless night. I got up early and go to the top
of Buchanan Hall to see a beautiful sunrise. The flat place, Iowa, always
make you smile. Welcome to see the beautiful state, Iowa!

Beautiful Clouds!
This is another beautiful cloud photo. I took this one on front of
Buchanan Hall,too. It was in 1996. I remember that's a day I just got back
from Ames depot for train-watching. You can see different clouds on the top
and buttom.
