I am a STEP Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Program in Science, Technology and Environmental Policy, Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University, working with Professor Michael Oppenheimer. I combine theory, multi-scale numerical modeling, remote sensing and in situ observations, and cutting-edge statistical methods to study environmental fluid mechanics and land-atmosphere dynamics that relate to climate change, urban environment, climatology, hydrology, climate impacts and adaptation. Before coming to Princeton, I received my Ph.D. degree in Atmospheric Science from the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, Yale University in the summer of 2015. My doctoral advisor is Professor Xuhui Lee. I received my bachelors degree in Atmospheric Physics from Nanjing University, China.
