About the authors
Dr. Zhao-Liang Li received the Ph.D. degree in physics of terrestrial environment-remote sensing from University of Strasbourg, France, in 1990. Since 1992, he has been a research scientist (Directeur de Recherche from 2011) at CNRS, France. He joined the Institute of Agricultural Resources and Regional Planning, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences in 2013. He has participated in many national and international projects such as NASA-funded MODIS, EC-funded program EAGLE, and ESA funded programs SPECTRA, etc. His main expertise fields are in thermal infrared radiometry, parameterization of land surface processes at large scale, scaling change, as well as in the assimilation of satellite data to land surface models. He has published more than 100 papers in international refereed journals.
