December 2012
At the AGU Fall meeting, Dr. Wang gave a talk on the regional climate system model RegCM4.3.4-CLM4/4.5-CN-DV, Dr. Yu presented a poster on bias correction of GCM-derived LBCs in climate projections using regional climate models, and Dr. Saini gave a talk on her CMIP5 monsoon onset analysis (work that she started at UMass but continues at UConn). Lab member Kazi Ahmed also attended the meeting as an observer. He learned a lot from the meeting!
November 2012
The lab welcomed Dr. Roop Saini who joined the lab as a postdoctoral research associate. Roop received her Ph.D. degree from University of Massachusetts at Lowell and her dissertation research focused on monsoon dynamics
September 2012
- Dr. Wang attended the Sackler Forum on Integrated Assessment Models and Future Need of Climate Change Research (in London), jointly sponsored by the U.S. National Academies and the U.K. Royal Society.
- Thanks to Farzan Ahmed (PhD student in Wang lab) and Rohit Mehta (from BECAT), the 1/8 degree (~12.5km) daily dataset for future climate (precipitation, Tmax, Tmin during 2046-2065) in New England is now available for others to download!
August 2012
The lab welcomed Zhitong Fei and Joseph Albani, M.S. students interested in hydrology and water resources. Zhitong got his B.S. degree from Jinan University in Environmental Resources, and Joe got his B.S. degree from Northeastern University in Civil Engineering.
