Hi! I'm an Associate Professor in the Physics Department at North Park University and a Staff Research Associate in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at UCLA. I head up the Climate Research Group at North Park. Photo of Johnny Lin

Contact information: Here's how to get a hold of me in cyberspace or realspace:

  • E-mail: jlin@northpark.edu. (This is the best way to contact me during weekdays.)
  • AIM and Skype: airjwlin. (I can do audio/video chat on both, but I would prefer that new contacts arrange a time to chat with me via email rather than request a chat online.)

About me: I was born in Colorado but grew up in a suburb of Seattle, Washington. I love reading; here is a list of my favorite books. I also enjoy poetry and am interested in recommendations. Places I know people from include the University of Chicago, the University of Colorado, my graduate studies at UCLA, and my undergraduate days at Stanford University. I've met a number of friends through the different organizations I've been a member of; InterVarsity Christian Fellowship has been one of the most significant to me.

Collaborators: Besides teaching and research with colleagues at North Park, I am also currently collaborating in research with: Jianbo Gao (Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Florida), David Neelin (Climate Systems Interactions group, UCLA), Ray Pierrehumbert (Climate Systems Center, University of Chicago), and Rob Rye (Earth Sciences, USC).

Resources: Interested in learning about fine chocolates? Trying to find a math or science poster? Visit my Chocolates and Pralines Survival Guide or Math and Science Posters Guide. I also have a page of tips and examples of using Python/CDAT in the earth sciences. Peruse my IDL, Fortran, or Python libraries for a handy routine. And here's a brief guide to Chicago for visitors.
