Biography:

Dr. Yujie Wang received a BS and an MS in physics from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China in 1994 and 1998 respectively, and Ph.D. in geography from Boston University, Boston, MA in 2002. In July of 2002, Dr. Wang joined GEST center of UMBC. During his Ph.D. study, Dr. Wang's research was mostly focused on the prototyping and validation of radiative transfer based EOS MODIS LAI/FPAR algorithm. Since 2004, he has been developing the AERONET-based surface reflectance validation network (ASRVN) designed for global validation of land surface reflectance products from space-borne instruments and sensor calibration support. At present, he is developing a new generic aerosol retrieval and atmospheric correction algorithm, MAIAC, for the EOS MISR, MODIS and future NPOESS VIIRS instrument.
