个人简介：
Dr. Jason Blake Cohen is currently a Young 1000 Talents Professor in the School of Atmospheric Sciences, Sun Yat-Sen University. His research work is mainly on Climate Change. His specific foci are related to the use and development of models, integrating models with data, representation of non-linear processes such as urbanization and land-use change, and interactions between aerosols/Haze and the climate system.
For an example of work that Dr. Cohen is currently engaging (and looking for undergraduates for FYP projects, or PhD level students): (1) the yearly "Haze" events we face here, and how these are connected with properties of the present day and recent past land surface, atmosphere, and climate system; and (2) how these important non-CO2 related climate agents, such as Black Carbon and Organic Carbon aerosols, and Ozone (all components of the "Haze") are expected to impact the future climate system (such as long-term temperature and rainfall changes).
Prior to starting at NUS, Dr. Cohen held the following relevant positions: (a) Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, National University of Singapore (2012-2016); (b) Postdoctoral Associate, Singapore-MIT alliance for Research and Technology Center (2010-2012); (c) a Research Assistant, Teaching Associate, and Teaching Assistant, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (2003-2010); (d) Lecturer, Roxbury Community College (2005); (e) Research Assistant, California Institute of Technology (2000-2002); (f) Lecturer, Teaching Assistant, and Senior Tutor, University of California, Berkeley (1998-2000); and (g) Professional Instructor for many different academic chess programs (1994-2010).
