About Me
Yu Wang (王禹) is a postdoctoral scholar in glaciology at The University of Chicago. My research uses numerical models to investigate Antarctic ice dynamics, subglacial hydrology, and ice–ocean interactions, and to assess proposed glacial climate interventions aimed at slowing ice loss and its contribution to sea-level rise.
During weekdays, I model ice sheets on supercomputers; on weekends, you’ll often find me outdoors on hiking trails, climbing routes, badminton and tennis courts, or by the shoreline with a camera (or a fishing rod).
