Profile

Affiliation(s):

MIT Center for Global Change Science;
Advanced Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment

Education:

B.S., Atmospheric Environment, Nanjing University, Nanjing, China, 1991
M.S., Atmospheric Environment, Nanjing University, Nanjing, China, 1993
Ph.D., Atmospheric Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000

Research Interests:
Dr. Huang's research involves modeling the atmospheric lifetime and transport of various greenhouse and ozone depleting gases, and the optimal estimation of trace gas emissions using inverse methods including Kalman filtering. Her recent work has focused on estimating the regional distributions of nitrous oxide, and investigation of the possible polar sources of methyl chloroform. She is also investigating the possible causes of global trends in the sources and sinks of the hydroxyl radical, OH. She is an active participant of the Advanced Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment (AGAGE).
