By Lou Brett, University of Strathclyde

?We want to hear from you and your exciting research! Always wanted to make your research more visible? If you’re interested in joining the CompoundNET early career network, or even featuring as an EC of the month, this is your chance to ?️ fill out this form.

Our Early Career Researcher (ECR) of the Month for January 2025 is Yinglin Tian!

Yinglin  earned her PhD in Hydrometeorological Physics in 2024 from Tsinghua University, Beijing and  is currently an ECR at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) in Potsdam, Germany. Yinglin’s research currently explores the non-static, nonlinear, and interactive physical processes during heatwave events, using surface energy equations, causal effect network analysis, and explainable machine learning methods. The aim is to deepen the understanding of extreme heat events and improve prediction and forecasting for extreme weather events.

Beyond her professional interests, Yinglin enjoys jogging and playing badminton!
