Biography

His research focuses on air pollution and aerosol radiative forcing in China with modeling. His team developed an emission inventory for biomass burning (both forest fire and crop residual fire) in China based on remote sensing. The new dataset with 1 kmand daily resolution well reflects the burning activities in the study area. His team also developed an ammonia emission inventory in China with1 kmresolution. Now, his team is trying to answer the question “how much is the contribution from agricultural emissions to air pollution and aerosol radiative forcing in China”.

Research Intrest

Agricultural emissions in China, atmospheric environment and climate effects
