Coastal Urban Environmental Research Group CUERG

The Coastal Urban Environmental Research Group (CUERG) is a part of the Atmospheric Science Research Center of the University at Albany. Our group conducts climate research studies on complex coastal-urban areas. The research includes observational and modeling studies of coastal-urban physical phenomenon and their practical impacts on climate modification.

The research group uses the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) developed by NCAR as main modeling tools, with urban physics developed by CUERG and collaborators.
