Land-Air interaction

• Modeling and analysis study of vegetation fraction, under-lying heat field and sea ice and their impacts on weather forecast.
• Designed an algorithm to calculate geothermal information below earth surface from soil temperature data.
• Surface energy budget and fluxes were studied using the above algorithm over the Tibetan Plateau.
• Studied the relationship among earthquake, soil temperature, precipitation and soil heat flux.
• The results from the analysis of torrential rain and under-lying heat field were used in the forecast of rain locations.
