Measuring dynamical properties of atmospheric convection using C2OMODO: a tandem of microwave radiometers Open
Convective clouds serve as a primary mechanism for the transfer of thermal energy, moisture, and momentum through the troposphere. The lack of understanding of the convective updraft properties and their relationship to environmental facto…

Quantification of increased biologically active CXCL12α plasma concentrations after ACKR3 antagonist treatment in humans Open
CXCL12 acts as a chemoattractant by binding to the receptor CXCR4. The (atypical) chemokine receptor ACKR3 (CXCR7) scavenges CXCL12. Antagonism of ACKR3 thus leads to an increase in CXCL12 concentrations that has been used as a pharmacodyn…

Prognostic value of right ventricular dilatation on computed tomography pulmonary angiogram for predicting adverse clinical events in severe COVID-19 pneumonia Open
Background Right ventricle dilatation (RVD) is a common complication of non-intubated COVID-19 pneumonia caused by pro-thrombotic pneumonitis, intra-pulmonary shunting, and pulmonary vascular dysfunction. In several pulmonary diseases, RVD…

Observing the dynamics of deep convection using a tandem of spaceborne microwave radiometers Open
Deep convection plays a fundamental role in the climate system by transporting from the lower layers of the atmosphere to the free troposphere, air, water and momentum. Although its study has been the subject of intense and rich scientific…
