Biography

Chen Wang is a postdoctoral scholar in the Earth & Environmental Sciences Area at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. His research focuses on environmental geophysics and hydro-geophysics, aiming to improve the understanding and prediction of subsurface hydrological and biogeochemical processes using various geophysical and hydrological techniques. He received his PhD in Environmental Science from Rutgers University Newark, where his thesis focused on the improvement of data acquisition, data interpretation, and hydrological applications of spectral induced polarization, a geophysical technique assessing the physicochemical properties of porous earth materials by measuring the complex electrical conductivity. At Berkeley lab, he works with Baptiste Dafflon to improve the estimation and prediction of heat/water fluxes in Arctic and snow-dominated regions using sensor network and remote sensing data.
