Zeng Zhi is a senior engineer at the Third Institute of Oceanography, Ministry of Natural Resources. With degrees from Wuhan University and Xiamen University, he has dedicated over two decades to researching coastal, estuarine, and harbor environmental dynamics. His primary research interests encompass the investigation and analysis of marine hydrology, sediment, and other environmental factors in marine engineering projects. He is proficient in developing ocean numerical models for tidal currents, sediment transport, wave dynamics, thermal discharge, oil spills, and the diffusion of other environmental pollutants. Additionally, Zeng Zhi has contributed to the field of marine hydrological observation through the application of artificial intelligence and computer vision models, including high-definition video monitoring of tides, waves, and currents.
Yanyu Chen, female, Ph.D., graduated from Ocean University of China. Her main research interests are offshore circulation dynamics, and she has published five high-quality research papers in domestic and international academic journals. She has published five high-quality papers in academic journals at home and abroad. She has co-authored and published the book “Beibu Gulf Circulation and Related Ecological and Environmental Studies” with Chen Bo, Bao Xianwen, and Shi Maochong, and has also participated in the preparation of the book “Processes and Mechanisms of Nutrient Impacts on the Ecological and Environmental Environment of the Gulf”, and has participated in the construction of several courses such as “The Past and Present of the Ocean” and “Humans and the Ocean”. The “Past and Present Life of the Ocean” has been awarded the National High-quality Online Open Course by the Ministry of Education.
Chen Bo is a distinguished marine scientist from Fangchenggang, Guangxi, specializing in marine environmental research, ocean dynamics, and marine planning. Chen Bo has led a number of research projects, particularly during his tenure as Director of the Guangxi Institute of Oceanography, where he oversaw comprehensive surveys of coastal areas and islands and received the highest provincial award for his contributions. As a leading figure in Guangxi's marine science community, he has organized important marine zoning and planning studies that have had a significant impact on regional policy. He has presided over a number of National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) projects and published more than 40 academic papers, including works in authoritative national journals. His research results have won numerous provincial and ministerial awards, and he has provided valuable insights into the impacts of typhoons and currents on the coastal areas of Guangxi.
Mr. Shui Maosong, a professor at Ocean University of China, graduated from the Department of Oceanography of Shandong University in 1959 and then stayed in the university to teach. He is mainly engaged in teaching and researching physical oceanography. He has served as an invited editor of the Encyclopedia of China, editorial board member of China Ocean Yearbook, deputy secretary-general of the Ocean Society of China, director of China Pacific Historical Society, consultant of Guangxi Academy of Sciences, chief engineer of Hainan Ocean Development Planning and Design Institute, chief engineer of South China Sea Marine Survey and Research Center, part-time professor of the Second Institute of Oceanography of the State Oceanic Administration, consultant of the Ocean Monitoring Center of the Beihai Branch of the State Oceanic Administration.
