Dr. Hyeon-Joon Kim

Research Professor

My research is dedicated to understanding the meteorological mechanisms behind the increasing occurrence of natural disasters, such as floods and typhoons, driven by climate change. By analyzing the microphysical and thermodynamic processes of precipitation, I aim to provide critical insights into the development of these phenomena. Utilizing both remote sensing data and ground-based observations, my work focuses on diagnosing the key factors that contribute to extreme weather events.

 

The primary emphasis is on understanding the intricate processes underlying precipitation events, analyzing meteorological factors from multiple perspectives, and identifying the conditions that lead to the formation of severe storms and flooding. This research not only deepens our understanding of extreme weather but also contributes to reducing future risks by identifying potential hazards before they occur. Furthermore, the interdisciplinary nature of this work facilitates the integration of advanced meteorological research supporting efforts to mitigate damage and protect vulnerable communities from the escalating impacts of climate-related natural disasters.
