Professor Ying Sun leads the so-called ES research group, which stands for

Environmental Statistics Research Group

Welcome to Environmental Statistics Group, led by Prof. Ying Sun, in the Division of Computer, Electrical and Mathematical Sciences and Engineering (CEMSE) at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). Our group is dedicated to developing statistical models and methods for space-time data to solve important environmental problems. We focus on statistical inferences of spatio-temporal processes, including developing informative graphical tools for complex space-time datasets, building realistic models for natural spatio-temporal processes and finding computationally efficient methods for estimating and assessing the fit of such models. We welcome highly motivated graduate students and experienced postdoctoral researchers to join our group. We are also interested in multidisciplinary collaborations.​
