Profile

Dr. Ren Wang is an associate professor at the School of Atmospheric Science, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology (NUIST). His research focuses on land-atmosphere interaction and the terrestrial water cycle in the context of global change. Specifically, his work involves utilizing big data (observations and simulations), remote sensing, machine learning, and physical modeling to investigate: 1) surface evapotranspiration and energy balance; 2) the responses and feedbacks of terrestrial ecosystems-water cycle process to climate change; and 3) the evolution laws and impacts of extreme hydroclimate events including drought, heatwave, and heavy rainfall.


Dr. Ren Wang obtained B.S. in Geographic Information Science (2012) and M.S. in Physical Geography (2015). He received Ph.D. from Sun Yat-sen University, Guanzhou (2019). During his doctoral studies, he was a visiting Ph.D. student at Columbia University in New York (2017-2018), supported by the CSC scholarship and Prof. Pierre Gentine. Before joining NUIST, he was a postdoctoral fellow at the School of Geography, Nanjing Normal University (09/2019-03/2022).
