An aspiring climate dynamist, modeller and researcher, my research interests currently include investigation into tropical dynamics using a wide array of tools, ranging from idealised climate models, to reanalysis datasets. At this moment, I am particularly interested in how the islands of the Maritime Continent interact with large scale regional dynamics such as monsoons, and on the monsoon characteristics of the tropical regions and its interactions with the diurnal cycle of rainfall. I have also investigated the impacts of tropical heating on extratropical weather such as mid-latitude storms and the subtropical jet, and am interested in using observational and remote sensing data to better understand regional climatology, and bridge the gap between remote sensing and ground-truth data.

Although the large and great earthquakes (Mw > 7.0) that occurred along the Sunda Megathrust have mostly been studied using GPS measurements of surface displacements from the Sumatran GPS Array (SuGAr), many of the moderate earthquakes (6.0 < Mw < 7.0) detected by SuGAr were not studied in depth. Our research therefore aims to:

The Australasian strewn field points towards an impact event somewhere within Indochina about 0.78 Ma. The ejecta that resulted from this high-velocity impact formed a layer of loess in the region several meters thick, and our research attempts to determine the sedimentation processes involved in the formation of this loess.
