I am seeking 1-2 PhD students (starting Fall 2025) to join my group at the University of Hawaii, see Opportunities for more details.

My main research interests are developing and applying multiscale modeling methods to study atmospheric and climate science.

Dr. Hongwei Sun is seeking 1-2 PhD students (starting Fall 2025) to join his research group in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Sun Group focuses on developing and applying various modeling methods to study multiscale atmospheric processes, including (1) large-scale stratospheric transport, dynamics, and aerosols and (2) small-scale aerosol-cloud interactions. Students can also study applications of (1) and (2) in climate engineering (or geoengineering) if interested. Students are encouraged to email Dr. Hongwei Sun at hongwei8@hawaii.edu to express their interest (with their CV and transcript) before applying.

Qualifications:

1.  A BS or MS degree in Atmospheric Science, Environmental Science, Physics, Math, Computer Science, or a related field.
2. Strong self-motivation and enthusiasm for atmospheric sciences.
