Chang, Ping Professor
Positions
- Professor, Oceanography, College of Arts and Sciences
Chang's expertise is on climate dynamics and climate prediction, as well as global and regional climate modeling. He leads a research group in global and regional climate modeling studies at Texas A&M and has developed research collaborations with many institutions in the US and other countries. Chang's research involves the understanding of climate variability and predictability, including El Ni?o-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Tropical Atlantic Variability (TAV) and Atlantic Multidecadal Variability (AMV). He co-chaired the International CLIVAR Atlantic Research Panel (http://www.clivar.org/clivar-panels/atlantic) and was a contributing author to three chapters in the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
