Biography
Impacts of climate change on water resources in Hong Kong Impacts of climate change and urbanization on hydrologic processes over Hong Kong and the Pearl River Delta in South China Integration of remote sensing products and numerical model simulations for drought prediction and impact assessment over the East River basin in South China Experimental and numerical studies of the hydrological features of flash floods in Hong Kong Dominant hydrologic processes for floods and droughts over the Pearl River Basin at different temporal and spatial scales Assuring Hong Kong's water supply: Learning the lessons of the 1963 drought Two regional climate models for dynamical downscaling climate projections over Hong Kong and its vicinity Advancing land surface parameterization in a coupled land-atmosphere model
Research Interest
Management of water resources Climate changeand urbanization effects Multi-scale terrestrial hydrologic processes Integrated watershed processes (water, sediment, and water pollutants) Interactions of the land surface and the atmosphere Predictability of the hydrological variables Water-related natural hazards Remote sensing in hydrology
