Dr Wenshou Tian

ICAS Associate

Email address: w.tian@leeds.ac.uk
Room: 10.17b

Biography

Qualifications: BSc Atmospheric Environment and a MSc in Atmospheric Dynamics, Department of Atmospheric Science, Lanzhou University, China. PhD, Dynamic Meteorology, School of the Environment, University of Leeds, UK

Memberships/Fellowships: Member of Chinese Meteorological Society

Research Interests: The stratospheric chemistry and its effects on climate change; Convection and convection triggering by orography; The atmospheric aerosols and its radiative effects on the atmosphere.

Wenshou joined the School of the Environment in October 1999 as a PhD student under the supervision of Dr Doug Parker with a research into the triggering of convection by orography. Currently he is working with Dr Martyn Chipperfield on chemistry-climate studies using a GCM coupled with a chemistry model.
