Shih-Wei Fang
I am a postdoc at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology. I am interested in paleo-climate, ENSO dynamics, and climate statistics. 

Current projects:
1) Understanding the natural external forcing contributions to the early 19th-century cooling. (Simulating 19th-century climates by MPI-ESM with combinations of volcanic and solar forcing)
2) Disentangling the internal and external components of Atlantic Multi-decadal Variability. (Estimating the internal component of AMV with statistical method for Past2k simulations of PMIP4)
3) Investagatiing volcanic impacts on ENSO variability. (Comparing ENSO responses from volcanic-forced ensembles with magnitudes and locations)

Besides, I am also interested in topics related to statistical methods (FDR), machine learning, and large-scale circulation.
