The Climate Watch and Hydrogen quality Metrology Team aims to become world-leading group in the field of measurement standards regarding climate forcing factors of greenhouse gases and hydrogen fuel quality. Spectroscopic measurement standards and relevant advanced technologies of those are becoming increasingly important due to urgency on recent national agendas in the Carbon Neutral. The team places particular focus on the development of measurement standard of global warming potential(GWP) and metrological measurement technique for hydrogen fuel quality. Additionally, the team conducts research on measurement standards regarding major stable isotope ratios and quantitative remote sensing of GHGs as a tool of integrated GHG information system.

Current R&D Projects

• 1 Measurement standards of Global Warming Potential
• 2 Metrological measurement platform of hydrogen fuel quality
• 3 Isotope ratio mass spectroscopy: development of measurement standards for major stable isotopes (C, N, S, O, H) and gas reference materials
• 4 High precision spectroscopy: Development of molecular spectroscopy measurement technology based on optical frequency combs and high resolution FTIR
