Mengyu Liang (Amber)
Postdoctoral Scholar, Earth System Science
BioI'm currently a postdoc at Stanford Woods Institute of the Environment working on combining remote sensing and econometric to assess the environmental and social outcomes of natural climate solutions and forest management interventions. I completed my PhD at the Department of Geographical Sciences at UMD in May 2024. During my PhD, I developed 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 Earth Observation to improve the sustainability of human-environment interaction is both a passion of mine and the research agenda during my PhD and onwards. 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 http://mliang8.github.io/ for map portfolio ) and want to employ in future projects to enhance communications with various stakeholders.

Lixing Lin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Energy Science and Engineering
BioDr. Lixing Lin is a postdoc scholar specializing in pore-scale fluid transport, thermodynamic modeling, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR). He holds a Ph.D. in Petroleum Engineering from the University of Alberta, where his multiscale research focused on bridging micro-level fluid physics with macroscopic reservoir dynamics.
Lixing’s work spans critical areas of the energy landscape, including the thermodynamics of nanopore-confined hydrocarbons, chemical-assisted matrix-fracture interactions, and pore-scale visualization for Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS) and carbon sequestration. By integrating advanced microfluidic visual experimentation with thermodynamic modeling, his research provides actionable insights for optimizing hydrocarbon recovery from unconventional reservoirs and advancing clean energy transition technologies.
Besides academics, he is dedicated to educating and mentoring young students on energy and STEM-related topics through his leadership in various outreach programs.
