I'm so excited for you, Dr. Clark! And I'm so proud of all the amazing communicators who seem to all be getting their PhDs at once like Dr. Dawson, Dr. Le Page, and Dr. Dainis. I'm sure there are others, but congratulations you all!
I’ve never been so proud of someone I’ve never met before! I surprising understand what you’re talking about and even recognize (and now understand!) terms you’ve said throughout your PhD vlogs and I feel so well taught. This video was great!
I had just finished watching your "From primary school to PhD" video and now, watching this one where there isn't a proper primary school maths, makes me understand how people can learn during a short amount of time. Thank you so much for everything you've done during these years, Dr Simon Clark!
Congratulations!!!! I have been following your since 2015. You always sharing a lot of tips to make sure we are on the track. I started my PhD in 2015. I've done my viva voce in October last year and expected graduated in the same year. However, the verdict was split and rose a debate among the committee. I was very confident with my research, however, one of my external wanted to fail me because he disagree with my findings. Another external examiner (a Professor) past me without any correction. Meanwhile my Internal examiner decided to give me minor correction. So, I got a major correction. Now, I m working on the correction. Wis me luck. Proud of you!!!
You are brilliant Simon I studied this at the most basic level doing a degree in Environmental Science at Uni, so have a vague understanding of the principles used here, but everything after that is completely beyond my comprehension. I just want to congratulate you on your achievement, as it's something I myself, could never achieve
I loved this video, mostly because of how excited you were to talk about this. I wish I could support you in some way that's not just my repeated binge sessions of your PhD vlogs with my adblocker off.
From what I see about my community, academia has a long way to go before the general public is caught up with current research. You're at the forefront of this sort of science communication, and you have the knowledge and experience to back it up. Thanks for what you do!
Can't say I understood all of that, but it was really cool to finally know some more about what you have been working on in all those vlogs I have watched :)
Brilliant summary! Will definitely be passing this along. Would love to see more videos on this topic (but will be visiting your website to read stuff too). Have been watching you for years and it’s super lovely to finally see your thesis come together and proud of your accomplishments for atmospheric science!
I'm really glad you made this video, because I was trying to read your thesis the other day. I can't believe they let you put all those movie quotes in it!
This is a great video, Simon! :) I really find yours and other scientists or PhD students who choose to communicate their research and graduate school experiences both insightful and motivating! Hopefully once I'm further along in my own PhD I'll be able to have more substantial research to share with others :)
Fascinating and important stuff, sir. You can justifiably proud of the outcomes you have achieved. As a non mathematician, I felt that I got the principle and might even get the proofs if I studied it a bit more! Thanks
Congratulations, Dr. Clark. You have actually achieved a BIG THING in your life. You'll now be in atmospheric physics classes around the world. I hope we one day hear about you here in my home country. Great.
This is so so cool. I am really proud of you, Simon. I am sure it was hard and I wish I could do something like that in my life one day. Add to the humanities body of knowledge and do something no one else has ever done.
i'm so happy to have found someone with a similar research interest to mine! i'm also doing an MSci (final year, meteorology and oceanography) and hoping to go into an atmospheric based PhD - thank you!!
Thank you for your great contribution to science Simon Clark, which is a great result, and not just result but the new methods and framework developed are going to add to human knowledge! Thank you for your great work!
This was an absolutely fantastic video, I have a biological sciences background and it was great to understand something I would never normally! Goals in life are to be able to communicate science as well as you manage.
You’re an absolute inspiration. I love you’re videos so much. I have been following you through your adventures since the beginning of your vlog. You have inspired me to chose a college major that interest me more. Keep up the amazing work 😊
Your videos are inspiring me to want to do PhD vlogs too! I'm going to be starting my PhD in Virology/Immunology in the Fall and I think it would be really fun to track my progress through the PhD (even if it's just for my own benefit to go back and watch later).
This is great, it's like a RUclips viva! Just found your channel, congrats for getting through it! I'm a music Master's student, not sure I'll tackle a PhD, at least for some years!
I'm taking fluids physics next semester (last semester of my B.Sc), I'd really like to see if I'd get it better after that. but that sounds awesome! and I can't wait to learn more about this and other subjects of physics.
Very interesting, I wont say i got alle the small points, but generally i understood it. I realised that I am not smart enough yo do a PhD. I am very impressd by the way you discovered the science, and exited that it works. I will try to read the whole thing, and hopfully not get lost.
Came here from your shameless civilization religion plug on the Yogscast. Happy to start watching your videos. I've recently gone back to school and hope to become an Environmental Engineer, so you videos are a fortuitous find!
At 11:15 you say: total V = V(psi_S) + V(psi_T) Aren't they the same thing? What goes up (through the horizontal surface inside the cylinder) equals what goes down with a negative sign. As I understand your model, then it should be: total V = V(psi_S) = - V(psi_T)
This is awesome work! Now that you have simplified the oscillation correlation it will be more palatable to look at the electro magnetic effect of high sun spot activity on the ionosphere. Perhaps your work will create a more open perspective on the effect the ionosphere has on tropospheric temperature. Then the world will see space weather effects earth weather and we can get busy preparing for that solar slowdown which allows the polar winds to wriggle south. Sorry. Got exited about your work and started adding variables outside our atmosphere to figure out what makes the oscillation cycle. I’m just a farmer mechanic so I may have overstepped. It’s just those damn solar flares pushing on our poles have captured my attention lately and then I saw your video. Nice work young man.
Thank you, Simon. I liked this post very much. Specially the equations. I know I can follow up on your website. Please post more physics or science with equations or more details than an average popular science post. When you like science and read a lot of popular science post or books it becomes repetitive "useless "
That’s some brilliant work, Simon. And very well explained, too. I am an Oceanographer, but the physics are similar. Those equations technically should work for the ocean too. Do you know of such applications?
First time viewer, love this video and how everything is explained. I can't wait for better supercomputers to come online (especially state side - it's about time) and to see how researchers like Simon will better improve modeling. I get that meteorology is incredibly complicated and the chaos of earth's weather is immeasurably difficult to predict so I don't complain when weather 5 or 10 days out is wrong, but here in LA the meteorologists can't seem to predict the weather that's happening literally right now. It will be heavily raining and every app will say clear skies, zero percent change of rain. It takes me all of 4 calories to turn my eyes out the window and get a better reading. Not saying it's up to you to fix this, but Simon, please fix this.
Hey Dr. Simon Clark, I am about to be starting a PhD in October. I would love it if you could do a video on general PhD advice, and any tips on being successful on a PhD.
I was watching the civ game you guys were playing a couple of days ago and you mentioned the emissions that might be set off by getting and refining nuclear fuel, possibly deterring some from it, yes you fail go mention the significant amount more that comes from making solar panels, making and refining steel for wind, the land usage and more. I think we should all take after the European states that run off of hydroelectric and nuclear rather than believing in things such as solar that arent efficient at all at making energy, take up land, and indirectly cause a lot of pollution (not just co2, but ground pollution too when they break.), and wind that only work in places that have the terrain for it.
oof havin a hard time with this one, but I think I got the basic gist of it: you're trying to find the link between the stratosphere behaviour in the north pole, and the consequences it might have on the troposphere. I'll watch it a second time, see if it helps. PS: the visuals are amazing, great job on the animations. edit: I hadn't quite finished it before commenting (i was at about the 11 min mark), but the recap helped a lot.
Are we going to ignore to ask two important questions here? 1. We want to see your Thesis Defence video 2. Explain - Wendover Production supporting you in Patreon Congratulations! Dr. Clark
Do you think the bulk of the winter weather will be in the first half of winter while the seconf half of winter will have unseasonably warm weather in Central NY?
Hey, will u please help me out....??..........I am seriously interested in theory of physics but when coming to numerical part , even the earliest one seems to be insane...please help me out .....please.....
Hi Simon. I’m assuming that the expanding height of the Troposphere over the decade’s doesn’t affect the relationship given the relative scales involved in the zones. It would merely alter the altitude of the transition which fluctuates in any event around the planet. Is that assumption correct? Does the trend in that expansion matter?
As someone who was pretty good at physics in high school but never had calculus at uni, I'm kinda stunned/ashamed at how little this all made sense to me XD
A Ph.D is nice, but if you want to go for the Nobel Prize you need to show how fluctuations in the magnetosphere alter interaction between the troposphere and stratosphere. Can you derive math that explains how convection from equatorial latitudes influences pressure gradients above the Arctic circle? Measurements suggest recent significant shifts in Earth’s magnetism at the equator are changing the behavior of the Hadley Cells. In turn, turbulence associated with cycling warm-to-cold air from the equator to the poles can influence the interaction covered in your thesis. Now, this is where the physics and math get interesting! Magnetic fields can affect airflow to limited extents in experiments. This is limited compared with the enormity of Earth’s magnesium. Model the influence measured in your lab and scale it up. Test your model against data for El Niño and La Niña events…. among other weather-influencing events. Let us know how you make out.

Does this (you having quantified the influence) mean that all weather forecasting models can/will have to be updated now?

@@SimonClark Of course...these darn physicists assuming everything is an ideal gas....So typical of them.
Would 1200 ppm of CO2 really stop clouds from forming?
So are U saying when the low heats fast the air expands forming a upper high pushing the jet stream out and scrambles the pressure?
I'm studying atmospheric science as an undergrad and this video made me realize I have a long way to go. Great job with the thesis, Simon!
Same. I know I'm late to this video, but I understood the concepts like SSW's, the AO, and other things, but yeah.
I'm doing a PhD and I have the same thought, so yeah.. lol
Soooo what you are saying is, the world actually isn't flat?

Assume air resistance negligible
Really appreciate this breakdown, you make science videos easy to follow like no other!
Also great job on all the graphics, they really help to illustrate your explanations
I’m only 2 minutes in but omg this video is brilliantly edited!!
Very nice animations, they really do help with conceptualizing the whole thing (especially since most of us are new to the topic)
These visuals are fantastic Simon!

I can believe that his work is so relevant for something that has got so much media attention.
This is amazing, the thought that you discovered something that has never been discovered before is just so cool.

Hi Simon. I’m assuming that the expanding height of the Troposphere over the decade’s doesn’t affect the relationship given the relative scales involved in the zones. It would merely alter the altitude of the transition which fluctuates in any event around the planet. Is that assumption correct? Does the trend in that expansion matter?
