Resümee

Academician Li Xiaowen devoted his time in fundamental research in remote sensing. He was the pioneer in the field of geometric–optical modeling of vegetation canopy and had a great reputation in international remote sensing community. The Li–Strahler geometric–optic model was selected as the SPIE milestone series. Li Xiaowen, who was the chief scientist, led the scientific team to obtain outstanding achievements in bidirectional reflectance distribution modeling, directional thermal emission modeling, spatial- and temporal-scale effects of remote sensing information, quantitative remote sensing inversion, and comprehensive experiments. In this paper, Li Xiaowen’s biography was briefly introduced, and his academic contributions in quantitative remote sensing theory and methodology were summarized.
