Research interests

Focusing on the high-impact weather, including heavy rainfall systems and dust storm weather:
(1) The mechanism of mesosacle convective systems: including heavy rainstorm, snowstorm, squall line and interaction between multi-scale systems in Asian monsoon area;
(2) Numerical prediction and modeling: including the development and improvement of the mesoscale numerical prediction models and various physical process parameterization schemes suitable to East Asia in models;
(3) Dust storm: including dust storm formation mechanism, numerical simulations and prediction.

Ongoing Projects

I am doing the research work for following projects as the chief scientist and/or the main member:
1. National key basic research and development project—Research on Theories and Methods of Monitoring and Predicting of Heavy Rainfall in South China (No:2004CB418301). Supported by The Ministry of Science and Technology of China.
2. A Study on mesoscale convectively generated vortices (MCV) and embeded MCSs over Yangtze River basin. Supported by NSFC.
3. Multi-scale ensemble-based Kalman filter assimilation of Dopplar radar data for severe convective. Supported by NSFC.
