About
Chew Wai Chang is a prominent atmospheric scientist whose research centers on aerosol particle dynamics, vertical distribution, and optical properties in Southeast Asia. His most-cited work, "Aerosol particle vertical distributions and optical properties over Singapore" (2013), has garnered 48 citations and remains a foundational study for understanding how urban and biomass-burning aerosols interact with regional climate and air quality. By combining ground-based lidar measurements with satellite data, Chang provided critical insights into the vertical stratification of aerosols over a tropical urban environment—a region often underrepresented in global aerosol models. His contributions have advanced knowledge of aerosol radiative forcing, haze formation, and atmospheric transport processes, directly informing policy on transboundary pollution in the ASEAN region. Beyond this key paper, Chang’s broader research portfolio includes investigations into aerosol-cloud interactions and the impacts of land-use change on particulate matter. His work is widely recognized for bridging observational data with climate modeling, making him a vital voice in Southeast Asian atmospheric science and a key resource for students and researchers studying tropical aerosol dynamics.
