Eddy Chung

Biography

Dr. Chung’s research is focused on reducing the uncertainty in the effect of aerosol on climate.  To do this, he integrates and analyses aerosol observations to reduce the uncertainty in aerosol; uses observations to constrain the optical properties (such as the single scattering albedo) of each aerosol species; and uses observations to constrain the aerosol direct radiative forcing.  In addition, he does climate modelling experiments with aerosol effects in a way that focuses on reducing the uncertainty of a chosen climate model.  He also attempts to reduce the uncertainty in greenhouse gas radiative forcing and looks into the effect of more accurate greenhouse gas forcing on climate
