I am a researcher in atmospheric sciences, specializing in aerosol-cloud-radiation remote sensing. My work focuses on developing innovative algorithms to improve aerosol retrieval accuracy using various remote sensing data, with a particular emphasis on combining deep learning and transfer learning techniques. I have contributed to studies on aerosol optical properties, PM2.5 estimation, and the integration of remote sensing with ground-based observations.
