My primary research interest in quantitative remote sensing centers on 3D radiative transfer modeling and parameter retrieval. I focus on developing and applying advanced models—such as radiosity and Monte Carlo ray-tracing/path-tracing methods—to simulate radiative interactions in complex 3D scenes, and subsequently using these models in inversion frameworks to estimate key parameters including vegetation traits (e.g., LAI, chlorophyll) and thermal infrared properties (e.g., land surface temperature and emissivity).
