Prof.
Jiyuan Liu is a geographer and a scientist engaged in the
research works on resources and environmental remote sensing
and geo-information science. He is director general of Institute
of Geographical Sciences and Natural Resources Research
(IGSNRR) of Chinese of Academy Sciences (CAS). He was born
in the city of Shanghai in May 1947 and graduated from CAS
and obtained master degree of Cartography and Remote Sensing
in 1981. From the early of 1980s, he has presided at and
completed several key national projects on construction
of resources and environment information system, such as
“Remote Sensing Investigation of Land Use in Tibet”,
“Macro Investigation and Dynamic Analysis of National
Resources and Environment Based on Remote Sensing”,
“Construction of dynamic information service system
of national fundamental resources and environment based
on remote sensing”, and the key project on knowledge
innovation of CAS, “Spatio-temporal information analysis
of national land environment by remote sensing”. He
has developed several multiple thematic analysis models.
On the basis of his research achievement of land resources
and natural environment of China, he put forward a series
of important research conclusions and propositions. He has
been awarded several prizes, such as the second prize and
third prize for national scientific and technical progress,
first prize of scientific and technical progress of CAS,
first prizes of scientific and technical progress of national
ministries. He is the vice-president of China Society of
Geography, the vice-president of China Society of Natural
Resources, the executive member of China National Committee
for IGBP, the member of Scientific and Technical Advisory
Committee of State Environment Protection Administration
of China, and the member of the scientific committee of
National Remote Sensing Center of China.
The
research projects that he is presiding currently include:
-
Integrated Ecosystem Assessment of Western China, a sub-global
project of MA (Millennium Ecosystem Assessment);
-
Spatial-temporal Pattern and Evolution Mechanism of Modern
Processes of Land Use in the Western China, a key project
funded by the Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC);
-
A Study on the Carbon Cycle of Terrestrial Ecosystem and
Driving Forces in China, a key project of 973 Scientific
Program of Chinese government.
