Jianjun Zhang
Professor at the School of Land Science and Technology, China University of Geosciences (Beijing).
I work on land use and sustainability, ecological modeling, land economics and regional planning, low-carbon land use and ecosystem services in human disturbance zones, urban management. The focus of my current research has been expanded to green infrastructures, ecologic economics and heat island effects related with land use.
Zhe Zhu
Zhe Zhu is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment at the University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT. He obtained a B.E. in Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry from Wuhan University (China) in 2006, and a Ph.D. degree in Geography from Boston University in 2013.

Matteo Zucchetta
Matteo Zucchetta obtained his PhD thesis entitled "Habitat distribution models for the management of fishery and conservation concern species in lagoon environment” at the University Ca’ Foscari Venice (Italy). He has previously covered the position of researcher University Ca’ Foscari Venice (Department of Environmental Sciences, Informatics and Statistics) and at the National Centre for Coastal Zone Protection and Characterization, Marine Climatology and for Operational Oceanography of the Italian Institute for Environmental Protection and Research (ISPRA). Since 2020 he is a researcher of the Institute of Polar Sciences of the National Research Council of Italy. His work was carried out in the framework of different EU and Italian projects, and his main research topics are: 1) analysis of the spatial distribution of plant and animal species in coastal and transitional water bodies; 2) Community ecology in transitional water ecosystems; 3) Use of fish fauna assemblages as indicators of ecosystem ecological status; 4) Ecological models for food webs analysis; 5) Climate changes effects on aquatic ecosystems.
