OLA: Ocean Environment Study Using Lidar and AI

Personal Introduction:

----------------------------

Chen Peng, male, researcher. Recipient of the National Outstanding Youth Fund. His main research focus is on marine laser remote sensing. He was the first to establish an optical multimodal polarization laser multiple scattering model that couples the remote sensor with the complex marine environment. He introduced an innovative iterative energy perturbation method for inversion technology that does not require laser radar comparison. Additionally, he developed new methods for laser remote sensing of global and polar chlorophyll and diurnal changes in sea-air carbon flux. He produced satellite remote sensing products spanning 20 years of day and night, which is the first of its kind internationally. He has presided over 3 National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) projects for outstanding young scientists and general projects, 3 key national research and development plan topics and subtopics, 2 key research and development plan topics and provincial natural science foundation items in Zhejiang Province, as well as more than 20 other projects. He has published over 80 academic papers, including more than 30 SCI papers as the first or corresponding author, 2 monographs, and more than 30 patents and software copyrights. Currently, he serves as the executive director of the Coastal Branch of the Chinese Society of Remote Sensing, guest editor for Remote Sensing, and a reviewer for over 20 journals including RSE, ISPRS, JGR, TGRS, OE, JSTARS, etc. He has received two provincial and ministerial science and technology awards, including a special prize for Marine Science and Technology (ranked 7 out of 20).
