Professional Profiles:
Education:
- Skilled in remote sensing and geo-informatics applications in ecohydrology and landscape
monitoring and management. Currently working on modeling land and atmosphere
interactions, specifically modelling the eco-hydro-climate characteristics using different
process-based models; Remote sensing, in-situ observations and reanalyzed datasets; and
Geo-Informatics techniques. Skilled also in computer programming using various language
and machine learning such as Python, R for data science and Google earth engine (GEE).
- Since July 2022-Present (December 2023): Special research assistant (post-doctoral)
position at Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences
(XIEG-CAS). State Key Laboratory of Desert and Oasis Ecology. Responsibility:
Conducting Eco-hydrological research in Aral Sea basin.
- Since September 2018- July 2022: PhD of research in Institute of Geographic Sciences and
Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGSNRR-CAS), Key
Laboratory of Resource and Environmental Information System. During this PhD, He have
specialized in modelling the ecohydro-climate characteristics using different process-based
models. My PhD thesis topic was: Impacts of the changes in regional climate and land use
on forest dynamics and ecosystem services in the greater Mekong subregion. Awarded a
doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Cartography and GIS.
