Personal profile

Yuheng Tang, male, PhD, Associate Professor, member of the Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Intelligent Weather Forecasting and Application for Big Data and the Institute of AI Meteorology. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Atmospheric Science from Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology in June 2019 and his PhD in Meteorology from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in June 2024. His research interests include: climate dynamics (the relationship between the Antarctic Oscillation and the climate of the Tibetan Plateau and East Asia), and AI meteorology (the application of artificial intelligence and causal inference methods in climatology) (Figure 1). He has published more than 20 SCI papers, including in academic journals such as Geophysical Research Letters, Environmental Research Letters, and Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres. He has presided over projects such as the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) Youth Science Fund Project (Category C) and the Basic Research Program of Jiangsu Youth Fund Project, and was awarded the title of Outstanding Graduate of Beijing in 2024.
