Papers for end-of-term review presentation

Instructions: Choose one of the papers below for your end-of-term review. Some papers may be long or very detailed; in such cases you can choose to present only a part of the paper. Papers listed here are a mix of theoretical, observational, and simulation-based. A few classic papers are also included. When presenting these, try to bring out how they have impacted research in the field.
