Dr. Xiaohong Liu’s research group focuses on the complex life cycles of atmospheric aerosols and their interactions with cloud microphysics to improve the accuracy of global climate modeling.
Research Areas
Research Areas
Aerosols
Aerosols
Our group investigates how tiny airborne particles form, evolve, and affect air quality, clouds, weather, climate, and human health using Earth system models.
Cloud Microphysics
Cloud Microphysics
We study how tiny cloud particles form, grow, interact, and turn into rain, snow, or ice using Earth system models.
Aerosol-cloud Interactions
Aerosol-cloud Interactions
We study how airborne particles influence cloud formation, cloud properties, precipitation, and Earth’s climate.
Climate Modeling and Model Development
Climate Modeling and Model Development
We use computer simulations to understand, predict, and improve how Earth’s climate system and atmospheric processes are represented.
