 The 11th Chengyao Young Scholars Forum of Nanjing University, the sub-Forum of Nanjing-Helsinki Institute in Atmospheric and Earth System Sciences were successfully held.

 

 

The 11th Chengyao Young Scholars Forum of Nanjing University, the sub-Forum of Nanjing-Helsinki Institute in Atmospheric and Earth System Sciences were successfully held on December 27th, 2023. Fifteen young scholars from MIT, Paul Scherrer Institute, Yale University, University of Bergen, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, University of Reading, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, McGill University, Duke University, York University, University of California at San Diego, Max Planck Institute, and other renowned domestic and international universities and research institutes participated in the theme sharing. The party and government leadership team of Atmospheric and Earth System Sciences, and nearly 100 teachers and students from the school attended the forum.


 

Lin Shiyao, Secretary of the Party Committee of the school, warmly welcomed the young scholars attending the forum. He introduced the implementation of “The First NJU” and “NJU Forging Ahead Initiative”, and pointed out that the university has always attached much importance to the development of talents, and provides for young talents excellent infrastructures for scientific research and great living conditions. He hoped that the young scholars could make full use of this forum to present themselves, improve mutual understanding via academic exchanges and then have clear thoughts for their future orientation.

 

The forum was divided into two stages, which were hosted respectively by Prof Wang Haikun, Vice Dean of Nanjing-Helsinki Institute, and Prof Lei Li Li, Assistant Dean of Atmospheric and Earth System Sciences. Participants exchanged their ideas mainly on frontiers and hotspots of the discipline. Topics included climate change, typhoons, wildfires and volcanic aerosols, human health and the environment and other research areas. The atmosphere was lively and friendly.

 


At the first stage of the forum, eight scholars discussed about the “Impacts of Wildfires and Volcanic Aerosols on Stratospheric Chlorine”, “Biogenic Aerosols, “Impacts of Land Utilization on Temperature in Human History”, “Thermodynamic Changes in the Arctic-Atlantic Ocean during Winter”, “Health-Oriented Control on Air Pollution”, “Simulation Experiments regarding Urban Air Quality Based on Coupled Multi-Scale WRF-LES-Chem Model”, “Evaluation on Impacts of Meteorological Data on Convective-Scale Numerical Weather Forecasting” and so on. At the second stage of the forum, seven scholars focus on “Earths Energy Budget and Radiative Feedback in Climate”, Changing Drivers on U.S. Pacific and Atlantic Oceans”, “Reasons Why U.S. Has the Most Tornadoes in the World”, “Study of Atmospheric Reaction Chemistry in Air-Earth Matter Exchange”, Air-Sea Interaction and its Influence in the Tropical East Pacific in Spring”, Modelling Turbulence on Complex Terrain”, Adverse Health Effects Resulted from Air Pollution”.


 To get the point furtehr, the number of young scholars attending this year’s forum doubled that of last year. During the meeting, the participants took an active part in exchanging their ideas. Their discussions varied from microscopic to macroscopic processes, from physical phenomena such as weather and climate to atmospheric chemical processes, from the atmospheric layer to different layers of the earth system such as the ocean and terrestrial ecosphere, from climate and atmospheric environmental changes to human health, etc. These all reflected that young scholars boast a broad academic vision and the ability to innovate, which proved to inject new vitality into the development of the discipline.
