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.
