Cloud and Aerosol Lab
Research Field
Dr. Sheng-Hsiang Wang received his BS and MS degree from National Central University (NCU), Taiwan, in 1999 and 2001. During 2008 and 2011, Dr. Sheng-Hsiang Wang was an exchange scholar (postdoc) of National Central University and the University of Maryland Collage Park, and worked on-site in NASA/GSFC. His research work was strongly related to many groups in GSFC, i.e. SMARTLabs, AERONET, and MPLNET. In 2012, Dr. Wang returned to NCU as a faculty position to continue his research related to aerosol and radiation. His major research topics include: (1) Aerosol and radiation interactions; (2) Aerosol optics measurements and remote sensing; (3) Satellite remote sensing for air pollution; (4) low-cost sensors and applications. More than 60 journal papers have been published.
NCU Cloud and Aerosol Lab have focused on atmospheric and environmental observation in the past decade. The research areas covered by atmospheric basic observation, remote sensing, radiative transfer, aerosol-radiation interaction. Especially, the indoor and outdoor calibration laboratory, which can correctly correct the observed data, was established in this year. Analyzing these high-quality observation data will help to understand Earth's energy budget and regional climate change.
