Introduction:
I have worked extensively in the field of geodetic data processing and satellite gravity inversion. One of my notable achievements is leading the development of the Tongji-GRACE series of global gravity field models, which were recognized and published on the website of the International Center for Earth Gravity Models (ICGEM). This marked a significant milestone as it was the first time that China's gravity field models were included.
As the principal investigator, I have successfully led numerous research projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China. These include one key project and seven general projects. Through these endeavors, I have authored and published over 190 core papers, including more than 70 papers indexed by SCI, accumulating a substantial citation count of over 3000 times.
My contributions to scientific and technological progress have been recognized with multiple awards. I have received two first prizes, two second prizes, and four third prizes at the provincial or ministerial level. In addition to my research work, I have also made significant contributions as the chief editor of the textbook "Practical Methods for Surveying Data Processing" and as a contributor to the monograph "Science of Geodesy".
In terms of professional service, I have served as a member of the Evaluation Committee for Surveying Science and Technology under the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council during the sixth and seventh sessions. Additionally, I have been involved as a member of the Geodesy Professional Committee. Furthermore, I have held editorial board positions for esteemed journals such as "Journal of Geodesy", "Journal of Surveying and Mapping", and "Geodesy and Geodynamics".
Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of mentoring and training numerous talented individuals in the field of geodesy. Many of my mentees have achieved remarkable accomplishments, including nominations for the 100 Excellent Doctoral Dissertations in China, recognition through the Youth Thousand Talents Program, recipients of the National Excellent Youth Fund, and recipients of the Alexander von Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellowship.
