Jiankui SHI, male, PH.D

He is research professor in State Key Laboratory of Space Weather, National Space Science Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences (NSSC/CAS), professor in University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS), the director of the committee of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy of Chinese Geophysics Union, the secretary general of Chinese Committee for IAGA/IUGG, and a member of American Geophysical Union (AGU).

He studied, from 1978 to 1982, in Peking University as a bachelor degree student specialized in Space Physics, from 1982 to 1984, in the graduate school, Chinese Academy of Sciences as a master degree student specialized in Solar Physics, from 1991 to 1994, in NSSC/CAS as a PH.D student specialized in Magnetospheric Physics.

Now, his speciality is ionospheric disturbances and Magnetosphere  -  Ionosphere coupling. He is PI of the ionospheric measurement with DPS-4D digisonde, GPS TEC monitor and GPS scintillation monitor at the NSSC/CAS low latitude ionospheric observation station Hainan. 

He has more than 300 publication mainly on space plasmas, ionospheric disturbances and irregularities, as well as on the ionosphere-magnetosphere coupling. He was in charge of Science and Application System of the China-ESA space science joint mission Double Star and now is the adviser of Science and Application System of the China-ESA space science joint mission SMILE.
