I am currently a postdoctoral researcher working with Dr. Cheng Li in the Department of Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. My focus is to disentangle the atmospheric composition and thermal structure of gas giant planets using physical modeling and flyby mission observations. I am working with the Juno mission Atmospheric Working Group (AWG), as an effort to characterize the vertical structure of Jupiter’s polar cyclones and investigating the associated lightning activity.

Previously, I worked with Prof. Rui Li at the University of Science and Technology of China, where I obtained my Ph.D. degree in Geophysics in June 2023. As an ongoing effort, I studied hydrological variability in terrestrial ecosystems by integrating satellite remote sensing, field observations, and physical modeling. In particular, I developed algorithms to retrieve surface microwave emissivity and the associated vegetation indices, as well as a development canopy radiative transfer model, which aims to interpret forest ecohydrology from spaceborne observations.
