Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2011 / Yixiong Wang
Explorations by controlled experiments into such a parameter space will shed light on both our theoretical understanding of circulation dynamics and our growing interest in the potential habitability issues of rocky extrasolar planets. The awarded poster systematically presents the diagnostic results of varying the rotation rate of an Earth-like planet, as well as some ongoing development of a 1-D radiative-convective model for the investigation on the influence of atmospheric radiative properties on general circulation regimes.

This workshop series is based upon the ‘Inspire & Challenge’ approach used by the Glasgow Science Center, Scotland, to communicate a diverse range of science subjects. Led by four experienced members of the Science Center team, participants will learn how to: employ modern theories of learning to hook people into their science; use practical tools and resources to bring their research to life; structure hands-on activities that inspire audiences of all ages and backgrounds; and choose language and approaches that are appropriate, making the engagements relevant and meaningful for the participants.
