I specialize in air quality, focusing on aerosols, particulate matter and chemical composition, and trace (polluted and greenhouse) gases utilizing satellite remote sensing, big data, and artificial intelligence (machine and deep learning), and assessing the impacts of air pollution and extreme weather on the environment, health, and climate. Up to now, I have authored over 80 SCI papers as (co-)first or (co-)corresponding authors in leading journals like Nature Communications and The Lancet Planetary Health, including 7 ESI Hot (Top < 0.1%) papers and 15 ESI Highly Cited (Top < 1%) papers indicated by the Web of Science, and 9 papers have been cited more than 100 times, including one first-author paper cited over 400 times. My total citations are more than 6100 times with an H-index of 41. I was the sole recipient of the AGU James R. Holton Award (2022), Remote Sensing Young Investigator Award (2023), and ranked in the top 0.1% highly cited authors (Atmospheric Sciences) over the past decade (OpenAlex), and on the Stanford University List of the World’s Top 2% Scientists (2022, 2021, 2020). I have served as an Editor of Earth System Science Data, and an Associate Editor of Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres. I have generated the high-resolution and high-quality datasets of air pollutants for the Global World (GHAP), China (CHAP), and the United States (USHAP), which have been widely used, leading to more than 280 applied publications.
