Prof. Jimmy Fung received a BSc and PhD in Mathematics from the University of Durham, UK, and from Department of Applied Mathematics & Theoretical Physics, University of Cambridge, UK respectively. After his PhD, he stayed on in DAMTP as a research associate working on dispersion problems which was funded by the MOD, UK. He joined the Department of Mathematics in 1992. Research Interests The current major focus of my research is in the understanding of the meteorology and air pollution problems in urban and coastal areas like Hong Kong and Pearl River Delta. The techniques used include geophysical data analyses, numerical weather prediction, prognostic flow models, diagnostic models, statistical and case study methods. I am also interested in computational fluid dynamics and turbulence research.
