Dr. Dan Li is an Associate Professor in the Department of Earth and Environment and Department of Mechanical Engineering at Boston University (BU). He is also an Urban-H Associate Director of the Initiative on Cities at BU. He completed his Ph.D. in 2013 in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Princeton University. Prior to joining Boston University in 2016, he was a postdoctoral research associate in the Program of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at Princeton University. His research focuses on improving the understanding of the dynamics and thermodynamics of the atmospheric boundary layer and applying the knowledge to addressing real world sustainability challenges. He is the recipient of the Humboldt Fellowship for Experienced Researchers from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, the 2022 Timothy Oke Award from the International Association for Urban Climate, and the 2023 American Geophysical Union Global Environmental Change Early Career Award.

As urban populations grow and the globe continues to warm, the importance of urban climate is not in dispute. The field of urban climate thrives when it draws on and balances insights from both applied meteorology and climate science. However, urban climate studies have predominantly taken an applied meteorology perspective. In this presentation, I will use a few examples to demonstrate how integrating climate science with applied meteorology can deepen our understanding of urban processes and support the development of solutions to pressing urban environmental challenges.
