Hans Chen

Assistant Professor

I lead the Climate Dynamics Group at Chalmers. I obtained my PhD in Meteorology and Atmospheric Science from The Pennsylvania State University. My research interests include climate variability, synoptic-scale atmospheric dynamics, Arctic climate change, inverse modeling of carbon dioxide, and data assimilation.

Ziqian Zhong

Postdoc

I am currently dedicated to research in the field of global carbon and water cycles, with a particular interest in studying the response of vegetation to climate change. Furthermore, I have also explored the topic of asymmetric warming on land surfaces.

Hari Nair

Postdoc

I’m a climate and atmospheric scientist with a background in environmental science and engineering, currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden. My research explores the complex interactions between aerosols, atmospheric transport, and climate dynamics, with a particular focus on black carbon and its role in Arctic climate change.

Xinyu Yang

Postdoc

I am a postdoctoral researcher studying the link between extreme climate events and vulnerable populations. I analyse historical feedback between climate shocks and social resilience to forecast future risk hotspots, which informs the development of dynamic adaptation strategies and climate resilience solutions.

Erik Holmgren

PhD student

I’m a PhD student working on atmospheric moisture transport at high latitudes and what role it plays in the arctic and subarctic climate system.

Fangyuan Cheng

PhD student

I am a PhD student working on the quantification of the economic impacts of one specific type of climate extremes or climate variability.
