Evaluating Cloud Feedback Systems under x2 CO2 Concentrations

Analyzed the effect of different cloud feedback system responses using output from the Community Earth Systems Model under doubling of CO2 concentrations in Python

Advancing Oceanic Iron Fertilization through Modified Iron Particles

Researched iron fertilization to enhance carbon sequestration efforts through phytoplankton by manipulating iron nanoparticles with organic polymer to create phytoplankton bloom and therefore increase carbon sequestration.

Comparing Calcium Carbonate and Aluminum Oxide in Stratospheric Aerosol Injection

Analyzed stratospheric aerosol injection of calcium carbonate and aluminum oxide in a type of geoengineering to reflect incoming solar radiation decreasing the effects of climate change.

Enhancing the Understanding of the “Unmasking” Effect in China

Researched the relationship between the “unmasking” effect in China caused by a rapid decrease in air pollution which has been associated with a raise in local temperatures, changing fundamental belief about pollution.

Linking Immune Infiltrates and Oncogenes in Lung Cancer

Analyzed clinical variables of hundreds of lung adenocarcinoma patients using Python linking certain genomic profiles with specific characteristics with the tumor microenviorment

Battling Urban Heat Islands through Different Types of Green Roofs

Compared the effectiveness of white, solar, green, and asphalt roofing in battling the effects of urban heat islands by stimulating sunlight and measuring surface tempreture
