Dr. Liang is a Fellow of the IEEE and AAAS, and a Global STEM Professor. He serves as an Editor-in-Chief of the Science of Remote Sensing journal. Dr. Liang led the development of the Global LAnd Surface Satellite (GLASS) products, freely available at awww.glass.hku.hk and www.geodata.cn. He is also leading to develop the high-resolution (30 m) version of GLASS (Hi-GLASS) products. His Google Scholar H-index is 107, with over 46,000 citations. Clarivate recognizes him as a Highly Cited Researcher, placing him among the top 0.1% of scientists globally. Han Ma is Research Assistant Professor at the Department of Geography, the University of Hong Kong. She was a research assistant at the University of Maryland, USA in 2017, and a postdoctorial fellow at Wuhan University, China from 2018-2022. Her main research interests include radiative transfer modeling and inversion of land surface/atmospheric variables, and high-level global satellite product generation/analysis. She developed two global satellite products (leaf area index and fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation) at 250m spatial resolution from 2000-2021, which are the global LAI and FAPAR time-series products with the highest spatial resolution in the world.
