Hello! My name is Xueying Yu. I joined the State University of New York at Albany (SUNY Albany) as a research faculty in Sep 2024. I am looking for highly motivated PhD students, postdocs, and visiting scholars. Please email me (xyu2@albany.edu) if you are interested.

I am a junior faculty at Atmospheric Sciences Research Center, the State University of New York at Albany. Previously, I was a postdoctoral fellow in Earth System Science at the Jackson Lab, Stanford University. I received my PhD degree from University of Minnesota Twin Cities in 2022, as a future investigator of the NASA Earth and Space Science Fellowship, advised by Prof. Dylan Millet. I received bachelor degree in Atmospheric Science and master degree in Meteorology from Nanjing University.

The goal of my research is to understand the drivers of climate change. Our work specifically focuses on greenhouse gases and air pollutants, to address critical knowledge gaps related to land-atmosphere-ocean exchange, climate-chemistry interactions, and their changes over time. We combine satellite and in-situ measurements to study the above issues over multiple scales. Specifically, we quantify methane emissions from point source level to the global budget. Our work also seeks to develop advanced computational methods for analyzing big data, for example by formulating novel inverse modeling approaches for leveraging the vast information provided by next-generation satellite data.
