Tomoro YANASEAssistant Professor

After earning a PhD from the Graduate School of Science at Kyoto University in 2022 and serving as a Special Postdoctoral Researcher at RIKEN Cluster for Pioneering Research, I began my current position in 2024. I am also appointed as a Visiting Scientist at RIKEN Center for Computational Science. My expertise is in Meteorology, Climate Science, and Atmospheric Physics. I received Yamamoto Award from Meteorological Society of Japan in 2023 for my work on the self-aggregation mechanism of moist convection in radiative–convective equilibrium.

Research Themes

Using advanced numerical simulation models, supercomputers, and theoretical analyses, I investigate the physical mechanisms of clouds and climate. My research focuses on the self-organization of large-scale cloud clusters, the cold pool phenomena linked to precipitating clouds, the variability of droplets within cloud systems, and the development of large-scale data analysis platforms. I am advancing these studies in collaboration with researchers both domestically and internationally.
