Hello, I'm

Jian Guan

Ph.D. Candidate ยท MIT EAPS

I'm a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences at MIT, advised by Prof. Susan Solomon. My research focuses on stratospheric chemistry โ€” understanding when and how human activities have altered the ozone layer, the long-term fate of organic aerosols in the stratosphere, and the photochemistry of reactive nitrogen.

I combine climate model simulations (CESM-WACCM6, CCMI), satellite observations (MIPAS, OMPS), airborne campaign observations, and statistical signal detection methods to link stratospheric changes to their human and natural causes.
