Short Bio:

Dr. Xiaodong Huang, associate professor and master supervisor at the Sanya Oceanographic Institution, Ocean University of China. The research interests of Dr. Huang include generation, evolution and dissipation processes and mechanisms of internal waves, and the scale-scale interactions between internal waves and mesoscale eddies. The main research achievements include: he has revealed the characteristics and generation mechanisms of extremely large internal solitary waves in the northern SCS; he has revealed the impacts of mesoscale eddies on the evolution processes of internal solitary waves in the northern SCS; he has revealed the modulations of mesoscale eddies on the internal tides in the northern SCS. Dr. Huang is now supported by four National projects, and he has published more than 10 peer-review papers in the journals such as JPO, GRL etc.
