Vegetation Fires and Pollution in Asia

Dr. Krishna Prasad Vadrevu is a remote sensing scientist at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, Alabama, USA. His research focuses on land cover and land-use change (LCLUC) studies, fires, and biomass burning emissions. He has more than 20 years of research experience in satellite remote sensing. He is currently serving as the Deputy Program Manager for the NASA LCLUC Program (lcluc.umd.edu) and leading the South/Southeast Research Initiative (www.sari.umd.edu).

Dr. Toshimasa Ohara is a scientist and Research Director at Center for Environmental Science (CESS) in Saitama, Japan. He has 33 years of research experience in air quality modeling, emission inventories, and pollution research. He is a lead developer for Regional Emission Inventory in Asia (REAS) and one of the highly cited researchers on the emissions. He is currently working on linking top-down and bottom-up approaches for emissions quantification from different sectors in Asia.

Dr. Christopher Justice is a Professor at the Department of Geographical Sciences, University of Maryland, College Park, USA. He has 40 years of research experience. His current research is on land cover and land-use change and global agricultural monitoring using remote sensing. He is an authority on satellite remote sensing of fires. He serves as Project Scientist for the NASA LCLUC Program, the Land Discipline Lead for the NASA MODIS and the Suomi-NPP VIIRS Science Team. He is the Co-Chair of the GEO Global Agricultural Monitoring initiative (GEOGLAM), Chief Scientist for NASA HARVEST, and Chair of the international Global Observations of Forest and Land Use Dynamics (GOFC-GOLD) program.

Dr. Krishna Prasad Vadrevu是美國阿拉巴馬州亨茨維爾的NASA馬歇爾太空飛行中心的遙感科學家。他的研究專注於土地覆蓋和土地利用變化（LCLUC）研究、火災和生物質燃燒排放。他在衛星遙感方面擁有超過20年的研究經驗。他目前擔任NASA LCLUC計劃的副計劃經理（lcluc.umd.edu），並領導南方/東南方研究計劃（www.sari.umd.edu）。

Dr. Toshimasa Ohara是日本埼玉縣環境科學中心（CESS）的科學家和研究主任。他在空氣質量模擬、排放清單和污染研究方面擁有33年的研究經驗。他是亞洲地區排放清單（REAS）的主要開發人員，也是排放方面的高被引用研究人員之一。他目前正在研究將自上而下和自下而上的方法相結合，以量化亞洲不同行業的排放。

Dr. Christopher Justice是美國馬里蘭大學地理科學系的教授。他擁有40年的研究經驗。他目前的研究方向是土地覆蓋和土地利用變化以及利用遙感進行全球農業監測。他是火災的衛星遙感權威。他擔任NASA LCLUC計劃的項目科學家，NASA MODIS和Suomi-NPP VIIRS科學團隊的土地學負責人。他是全球農業監測倡議（GEOGLAM）的聯合主席，NASA HARVEST的首席科學家，以及國際森林和土地利用動態觀測（GOFC-GOLD）計劃的主席。
