Dr. Biqiang Zhao

FACULTY POSITIONS
2009-present, Associate professor of the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences

EDUCATION
  • B.S., 2001, Theoretical Physics, Central China Normal University in Hubei Province
  • Ph.D., 2006, Space Physics, Wuhan Institute of Physics and Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences
  • Post-doctor, Space Physics, Institute of Geology and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences

Research Interests:
My previous and current research focuses on two important topics of the ionospheric field. My first task is to investigate how the ionosphere behaves during the extremely space weather events and figure out the mechanisms that control the process of ionospheric storm evolution especially at middle to low latitudes. My second work deals with the climatology study of the ionospheric parameters which aims to find out possible causes that produce various anomaly phenomena in the ionosphere such as winter anomaly, semiannual anomaly and December anomaly.
