He had engaged in meteorological research with passion and dedication for more than 60 years, always standing at the forefront of the world meteorological science with a regional focus on need for the weather and climate forecast in China. He had made pioneering, visionary and systematic achievements in understanding the atmospheric circulation and the severe weather and climate which include the atmospheric general circulation theory, the subtropical high movement, the stratosphere-troposphere connection, the Southern and Northern Hemisphere interaction, the East Asian summer monsoon regime structure, and the severe weather like heavy rain and typhoon. He proposed a variety of novel findings, theories, thoughts and methods which are of great academic and practical significance, and made tremendous contributions to enriching synoptic meteorologyand climate science and improving the level of weather forecast and climate prediction in China. On the occasion of the centenary of his birthday, this paper reviews his main academic achievements from four aspects: atmospheric circulation, subtropical high, East Asian summer monsoon, and heavy rain and typhoon, so as to commemorate and remember his important academic contribution to meteorological science.
