Congratulations to Professor Yen-ting Hwang for receiving the NSTC Outstanding Research Award!
ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY IN TAIWAN
In my lab, we focus on atmospheric gas-phase and aerosol chemistry research questions and employ a range of analytical techniques to address them. We are eager to solve air quality problems and direct our findings to policymakers as an aid in making informed decisions.
Atmosphere and Ocean Dynamics Lab
We bridge the gap between theory and reality by using a hierarchy of simplified models to figure out the "how" and "why" behind the global circulation of our atmosphere and oceans
Lab of Chaos and Predictability
Using hierarchical modeling frameworks, data-driven methods, and statistical mechanics, our lab focuses on the predictability and future projections of climate extremes from a dynamical system perspective.
Polar Climate Research Group
The Polar Climate Research Group aims at studying the fast changing polar climate system. We focus on the causes and consequences of polar amplification using observations, theories, new modeling approaches with different complexity, and innovative data-driven methods. Link
Climate Dynamics and Global Change Laboratory
Our lab views the Earth as a coupled system, investigating how energy exchanges between the atmosphere, land, and ocean drive global circulation changes under GHGs, aerosols, and ozone depletion. Integrating physical theory with observational data, IPCC-class modeling, and AI-driven emulators, we decode these large-scale dynamics to sharpen regional projections of shifting rainfall, droughts, and flooding.

Atmospheric Environment Laboratory
The Atmospheric Environment Laboratory studies tropical organized convection in the Asian monsoon region, spanning convective organization, synoptic controls, and the regional convection–circulation–energetic coupling that leads to features of convection aggregation. We integrate satellite data analysis and field observation campaigns with a hierarchy of models—from large eddy simulations, superparameterized global model, and global storm-resolving models—to develop physically interpretable, storyline-centered projections for weather and extreme rainfall dominated by organized convection over Taiwan and the surrounding monsoon region.

Terrstrial Hydroclimatology & Remote Sensing Research Group
Our group focuses on land-atmosphere interactions, integrating in situ observations, satellite remote sensing, and numerical modeling to investigate how water and energy cycles respond to anthropogenic climate change and how these changes affect climate, extreme events, and ecosystems. Link
