Six Hong Kong scientists, including Professor Lin Liu, participated in China’s 41st Antarctic expedition, conducting field research at three key locations across Antarctica in 2024-25. This milestone highlights Hong Kong’s expanding role in national and global scientific endeavours.
At this lecture, Professor Liu will share his fieldwork experiences, insights from studying the warming cryosphere, and its worldwide implications.
This lecture will take place on 13 May from 12:00–13:00 BST (19:00–20:00 HKT) and can be watched online via Zoom or attended in-person in Hong Kong.
This event is jointly organised by our Hong Kong Regional Group, the Geological Society of Hong Kong and the CUHK Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change.
Professor Lin Liu
Lin Liu is an Associate Professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. His research leverages a diverse range of geodetics, geophysical, remote sensing, and deep learning techniques to investigate Earth’s cryosphere, focusing on permafrost, glaciers, and ice sheets. In recognition of his pioneering work, he received the 2021 John Wahr Early Career Award from the American Geophysical Union for his innovative use of geodetic methods in studying the cryosphere. He also received Exemplary Teaching Awards from the Faculty of Science, CUHK in 2016 and 2023.
