Research interest
My research focuses on understanding the extreme weather (e.g. Atmospheric Rivers, ARs) events associated with multi-scale dynamics and climate variability using statistical and physical models, theory, and in-situ and satellite observations. Furthermore, I am interested in quantifying the emission of urban greenhouse gases such as CO2, CH4, and their sources and sink. I am also interested in understanding the Transpacific (long-range) transport of O3, cloud-meteorology-aerosol interactions, and their impact on surface air quality and human health.

I served as a CAARE (Center for Applied Atmospheric Research and Education, led by Prof. Sen Chiao, SJSU) mentor of two SJSU students during 2017-2018 summer on Atmospheric River Research. I have also taught atmospheric dynamic class at SJSU in Fall 2018 - spring 2020.
I participated in California Baseline Ozone Transport Study (CABOTS) project as a member of AJAX team in 2016.
I was involved in the NOAA El Nino Rapid Response (ENRR) Field Campaign in late 2015 and early 2016 as a part of AJAX team. From this field campaign, I have led a study regarding a coastal barrier jet associated with atmospheric rivers, to understand its kinematic and thermodynamic characteristics.
I have joined AJAX (Alpha Jet Atmospheric eXperience,PI: Dr. Laura Iraci) team at https://www.nasa.gov/centers/ames/home/index.html since Sept. 2014.
I worked with Prof. Inez Fung from 2012 to 2014, focusing on the urban CO2 sources in Salt Lake city, Utah.
I worked at Caltech JPL from 2011 to 2012, as a Caltech postdoctoral fellow I was one of the main team members of CALWATER, studying Atmospheric Rivers using in-situ/satellite data, model, and theory. I worked with Chief Scientist, Dr. Duane Waliser and AIRS leading scientist Dr. Eric Fetzer
I received MA and Ph.D from Dept. of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Johns Hopkins University from Fall 2004 to July 2009. I was advised by Prof. Darryn Waugh,
I received B.S. degree from Dept. of Mathematics and B.S. and M.S. degree from Dept. of Atmospheric Sciences, Yonsei University, S. Korea, under a supervision of Prof. Hye-Yeong Chun.
