About the HyMetS Group

Dedication. Expertise. Passion.

We have worked with great intensity toward the successful completion of diversified research projects ranging from watershed modeling to impact assessment of climate change on hydrologic cycle. We have also conducted investigations on sustainable urban design for climate change adaptation and urban water disaster mitigation focusing on the characteristics of rainstorm events, dam operation and flood routing with a strong academic background in applied mathematics, physics and statistics. These research areas are directly connected to measurement and analyses of hydrological processes over a range of spatial and temporal scales in urban areas for water sensitive cities towards sustainable nations.

Group History

2017 - 2019

Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University

The HyMetS Group was established at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University. Under the guidance of Professor Changhyun Jun, students from various East Asian countries have studied and conducted research.

2019 - 2024

Chung-Ang University

The group laid its foundation and experienced rapid growth at Chung-Ang University. Our group has advanced through collaboration with various researchers and across diverse research topics.

2024 - present

Korea University

At Korea University, a leading institution in the field of hydrology in South Korea, the group is evolving into a passionate research team, driving forward advanced topics by merging tradition and cutting-edge skills.
