M. (Meiling) Cheng

Profile

I am a Postdoc researcher in the Geoscience & Remote Sensing Group. Previously, I obtained my PhD degree in Imperial College London in 2022. Prior to joining Imperial College, I obtained master's and bachelor’s degrees in Wuhan University in China. 

Research

My research interests and expertise revolve around developing novel machine learning technologies addressing a wide range of issues across computational fluid dynamics, hydrology, and climate. In my current project, my work will focus on data-driven atmospheric cloud research supervised by Franziska Glassmeier. I will combine machine learning methods with partial physical knowledge such as conservation laws to efficiently and accurately describe cloud characteristics and processes across different data sources.
