Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
Many of the climate modelling results to analyze the Asian Monsoon were completed in Fiscal 2022, though some were not completed and therefore the final paper will not be ready until Fiscal 2023. However, I completed a number of other projects, some which were related to a previous postdoctoral position. As a result, I had several papers published during fiscal 2022.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
In fiscal 2023, the final paper with the results of the current postdoctoral position is intended to be finished and submitted.
