Course Description

Being the most densely populated and the fastest developing region in the world, Asia has undergone the most dramatic changes on earth at an unprecedented rate in all aspects, rendering a natural test bed for witnessing and understanding interactions between anthropogenic activities, environment and climate and their changes. Frequently reported episodes of severe pollution characterized by high concentrations of aerosol particles not only affect people’s daily lives and health, but also affect the monsoon climate of Asia which has changed dramatically over the past few decades. Unraveling relationships between aerosols and the Asian monsoon climate system are critical to making sound policies for sustainable development and for the well-being of over half of the world’s population. Dramatic increase in studies on aerosol and monsoon in Asia have taken place in recent decades. In the past, aerosol and monsoon studies were carried out rather independently by two distinct communities who had little interactions. It is now evident that the two are intertwined to jointly affect the climate of Asia significantly. To foster the collaborative efforts and to train a new generation of scientists to be able to engage in interdisciplinary studies, we have invited some world leading researchers in both fronts to give an intensive summer course through a series of systematic, coherent and comprehensive lectures.
