Introduction of Prof. Dickinson:
Prof. Dickinson’s research interests are in climate modeling,
climate variability and change, aerosols, the hydrological cycle and droughts,
land surface processes, the terrestrial carbon cycle, and the application of
remote sensing data to modeling of land surface processes. As an outstanding
scientist, he has won all the top awards in the field of geoscience.
Introduction of Prof. Fu:
Prof. Fu’s research aims at understanding the role of the atmospheric hydrological cycle in determining the stability of the Earth's climate. In recent years, her research has been focused on the coupling between rainfall, rainforest and biomass burning in the Amazon, and on convective transport of water vapor in the tropics and over the Tibetan Plateau. She has served on a variety of national and international panels and programs.
