Dr Xiangbo Feng

BIOGRAPHY

Xiangbo Feng is a senior research scientist at NCAS-Climate (Reading). He researches towards better understanding and predictions of tropical cyclones and associated extremes on different time scales. He collaborates with the UK Met Office, WMO, China and Southeast Asia partners to evaluate dynamical models, and design tailored statistical models if necessary, for tropical cyclone hazards for operational purposes. He is also interested in the underpinning physical processes in tropical cyclones (e.g., precursors, genesis and intensification) and associated extremes. He also has research experience in sea level extremes (storm surge and ocean waves) and data assimilation.
