    Focusing on the atmospheric carbon cycle, Bo Zheng has developed a variety of techniques to analyze the sources and sinks of atmospheric constituents (e.g., greenhouse gases) based on satellite remote sensing. He has published research articles in high-profile journals such as Science, Science Advances, and Nature Communications. The Science paper was selected as one of the Research Highlights and was featured in News Briefings by the Science magazine at the 2023 annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), widely reported by more than 100 news media worldwide.
