Dr. Wang's research focuses on understanding the chemical composition of the atmosphere and their impacts on air quality and climate change. The group uses global and regional models (e.g. GEOS-Chem) with observations (from all scales: ground, drone, aircraft, satellite, etc.) to study the complex interactions between atmospheric chemistry, meteorology, human activities, biological processes, air pollution and climate. Current topics of interest includes:

Atmospheric halogen chemistry
Aerosol optical properties and their impacts on climate
Secondary aerosol formation
Marine effects on atmospheric chemistry
Understanding sources and chemistry of atmospheric pollutants in heavily polluted environment
