Scientific Background
Dr. Zhang specializes in
numerical modeling and theoretical study of atmospheric chemistry/air quality
engineering. Her research interests
include air pollution modeling and assessment, atmospheric chemistry and
transport, chemistry and dynamics of atmospheric aerosols, sensitivity,
uncertainty, and process analysis, and interactions among air quality,
meteorology, and climate change. She led
or contributed to the development, improvement, application, and evaluation of
several major three-dimensional models on urban, regional, and global scales
including STEM III, GChM, MIRAGE, SCICHEM, CMAQ, CMAQ-MADRID, CAMx, MM5, WRF,
WRF/Chem, and CESM/CAM5. She utilized
these models for studies on the long range transport of mineral dust and its
interactions with tropospheric chemistry in East Asia; the formation and fate
of tropospheric ozone and particulate matter in the U.S. and trans-pacific
region; power plant plume chemistry and its impact on visibility in the U.S.;
the effects of planetary boundary layer schemes, land-surface schemes, and
cloud microphysics treatments on transport, transformation, and dry and wet
deposition of air pollutants; global aerosol direct and indirect radiative
forcing, feedbacks among chemistry, aerosol, cloud, radiation, and climate on
regional and global scales. She led
several comprehensive reviews of major modules for aerosol dynamics and
thermodynamics, probing tools (e.g., sensitivity, process analysis, and mass
balance analysis) for air quality models, agricultural air quality, online
coupled meteorology-chemistry models, and real-time air quality forecasting. She has incorporated a state of the science
aerosol module and multi-phase chemistry module into the EPA’s
Models-3/Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) Modeling System (referred to as CMAQ-MADRID), and the NOAA’s Weather Research and Forecasting/Chemistry
Prediction System (referred to as WRF/Chem-MADRID). She led the development of a fully-coupled
global-through-urban WRF/Chem (GU-WRF/Chem) model that provides a unified model
framework to simulate both air quality and climate from global to urban scales,
as well as the development and application of an Earth system model based on
Community Earth System Model (CESM) that simulates interactions among air,
water, land, forest, and eco-system. On
urban and regional scales, she is applying several air quality models to
conduct high resolution (1- to 4-km) simulations of urban and regional ozone
and PM in the U.S., Mexico, China, and Europe, developing an integrated air
quality, meteorology, and climate model for research-grade and real-time air
quality forecasting applications, and studying major sources and health effects
of PM. On a global scale, she is
evaluating the impact of aerosol size representations and microphysical
treatments on modeling of cloud-aerosol interactions and aerosol direct and
indirect radiative forcing, developing a global-through-urban
climate-chemistry-aerosol-cloud-radiation model for applications from global to
freeway scales, and developing an Earth system model for applications on a
global scale and downscaling to local-urban scales to simulate atmosphere,
hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere and their interactions. Dr. Zhang is a recipient of the National
Science Foundation Career Award, 2004.
She authored or co-authored 142 peer-reviewed journal publications (135
published/in press and 8 in review), 38 peer-reviewed conference papers and
technical reports and book chapters, 120 non-refereed
conference papers and technical reports, and 405
conference presentations/invited seminars/lectures. The number of
her publication citations from ISI Web of Sciences is 3703 and the h-index is 30 (as of July 26, 2016). The
number of her publication citations from Google Scholar is 5500 and the h-index is 39 (as of July 26, 2016). She
served as a technical committee member for review panels and
conferences/workshops, session chair/co-chair at various conferences including
AAAR, A&WMA, ASAAQ, AMS, and the
Conference on Air Quality, as well as co-chair for the 2008/2009/2010/2011 AMS
Conference on Atmospheric Chemistry. She
was the chair of the Membership Committee of AAAR, and the chair of the AMS
Committee on Atmospheric Chemistry. She
is a member of A&WMA, AAAR, AGU, AMS, and Sigma Xi, The Scientific Research Honor Society.
