Dr. Taihua Wang is currently an assistant research fellow at the Institute of Hydrology and Water Resources, Department of Hydraulic Engineering, Tsinghua University. His research mainly focuses on two aspects: (i) Cryospheric eco-hydrological processes and modelling: The historical and future cryospheric change, especially permafrost degradation, and its effects on the hydrological cycle and regional carbon budget on the Tibetan Plateau and other cold regions. (ii) Hydroclimatic extremes and associated effects: The spatiotemporal changes of hydroclimatic extremes in a changing climate, and associated effects on cryosphere, vegetation and society as a whole. He has published a series of research papers at journals including Science Advances and Science Bulletin, and has been invited as a reviewer for journals including Water Resources Research and Journal of Hydrology.
