My academic work
Projects and publications
See my research on atmospheric chemistry, chemistry-climate interactions, and my current research of physics of dust emissions.
Hi, I'm Danny Leung. This is a beta version of my personal website built from what I would like to share online. I share my research, resources, and some of my teaching materials made throughout my academic life in this website.
I am currently a scientist at the NSF National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). I work in the Atmospheric Chemistry Observations and Modeling (ACOM) Laboartory. I obtained my Ph.D. in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of California, Los Angeles. I graduated from the Earth System Science Programme at The Chinese University of Hong Kong with a B.S. and M.Phil..
I work on atmospheric chemistry and aerosol modeling. I work on the emission, transport, deposition, and chemistry of different aerosol species, including desert dust, particulate nitrate, particulate sulfate, and pollen. I mostly use the Community Earth System Model (CESM), which is developed and maintained by the NSF NCAR.
During my free time, I like to play the piano and do Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu.

Daily life science
A layman introduction of my work on how weather is related to air quality. This is how I talk research to my friends.
Education
I gather a collection of teaching materials, including lectures and workshops (with codes) on atmospheric science as well as other subjects here.
Open source code
My codes for research, lectures and this website. This link goes back to my github page where most of my codes and repos reside in.
