Extreme Weather and Climate Physics
Extreme Weather and Climate Physics
Hi, I'm Funing Li!
I'm a postdoctoral associate at MIT EAPS since September 2023, working with Professor Talia Tamarin-Brodsky, as part of the MIT Climate Grand Challenge Project.
I have broad interests in extreme weather (e.g., severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, heatwaves, and convective precipitation). My research combines physics and multi-complexity models to probe their formation (why do they look the way they look today?) and evolution (how extreme can they become as climate changes?) on the planet.
