Jungho Park received his Ph.D. from Indiana University, Bloomington in Applied Mathematics, focusing on Geophysical Fluid Dynamics. Park's research area is bifurcation and stability problems in fluid dynamics and geophysical fluid dynamics. Accurate weather or climate forecasts and warnings are absolutely vital services, which are provided by those in meteorological profession. There are two major components that influence weather and climate on the earth; the atmosphere and the ocean. Due to their nature of rotating geophysical fluids, the rotating convection problem can be considered a key model for atmospheric and oceanic flows. Park's research involves the rigorous mathematical analysis for the original partial differential equation models which is needed to overcome the inherent limitations of numerical studies. This analysis shows how the solutions of a differential equation changes as the system parameter changes. Park's new research area consists of dynamic transition and pattern formation for biological systems. Mathematical modeling of chemotaxis has developed into a large and diverse discipline, which include mechanistic basis, modeling of specific systems, and mathematical behavior of the underlying equation.
