Biography (只提供英文版)

Associate Professor in Department of Earth Sciences at The University of Hong Kong
Research focuses on the application of thermal and near infrared reflectance spectroscopic remote sensing along with laser altimetry, and stereo imaging to systematically identify, map and characterize ancient volcanic structures on the planet Mars in order to characterize the geological evolution of the martian crust with implications for crustal recycling mechanisms that pre-dated plate tectonics
RFS project - to explore ancient volcanotectonics on Mars using remote sensing data returned from spacecraft in orbit around the red planet. Remote sensing datasets will be used to explore and quantify Noachian (>3.6 billion years old) volcanism through morphometrics, mapping and infrared spectral measurements in the ancient highlands of Mars
Awards and Honours:
- RGC Research Fellow (2023)
- Fellow of Geological Society of America (2022)
- Fellow of Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (2019)

赞词

这项研究的重点是应用热和近红外反射光谱遥感以及激光测高和立体成像来系统地识别、绘制和表征火星上的古代火山结构，以便表征具有意义的火星地壳的地质演化。用于早于板块构造的地壳回收机制。这个星球上板块构造的起源尚不清楚，因为大部分地质记录已因侵蚀和构造循环而丢失，但火星包含丰富而复杂的古代火山构造记录，其细节将揭示早期行星过程。生命起源于这个星球上受板块前构造过程控制的富含能量的热液环境。但通过研究火星上的类似过程，我们可以更好地了解火山构造与火星上生命可能起源之间的可能联系。
