To apply GIS, remote sensing techniques and my statistical knowledge in landscape ecology research is really an enjoyable experience.  I did multivariate analysis to predict parcel land development type by investigating parcel level land cover composition and looking into the neighbor parcel characteristics, which turned out a considerable accuracy. Currently, I am working on land cover classification accuracy assessment derived from LANDSAT TM time series data. I am a 5th year Ph.D. from China; I have a BS in Environmental Science and a MS in Landscape Ecology.
