Liang, Mengyu (Amber)
Bio
I'm working on developing remote sensing techniques utilizing multi-source remote sensing data (e.g. GEDI, ICESat2, Landsat archive, PlanetScope) for monitoring long term carbon sequestration in forest restoration areas in East Africa. Seeking to understand how to use RS-based quantitative information to improve the sustainability of human-environment interaction is both a passion of mine and the aim of my PhD work.
Moreover, I have developed skills in forest inventory and Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) data collection from working on field campaigns in Mozambique and Uganda. Developing web-based interactive map dashboards is another set of technical expertise that I have been practicing (see map portfolio ) and want to employ in future projects to enhance communications with various stakeholders. If you are interested in my research, please see my associated publications. If you are interested in collaborations, please email me mliang77@terpmail.umd.edu.
