Dean’s Message院長的話

It has been a year since we implemented our strategic plan for the Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE) in June 2015. I am pleased to note that our efforts have been rewarding in many ways. By the end of August 2016, a total of 17 new academic staf f , including 2 distinguished chair professors, 3 p r o f e s s o r s , 1 0 a s s i s t a n t professors, and 2 research assistant professors, have joined

or will join the Faculty. They will no doubt further enhance our teaching and research capacity. Since June 2015, we have received 29 General Research Fund (GRF) grants and 4 grants from the Early Career Scheme (ECS), which represent an overall success rate of 40%, as well as 1 Collaborative Research Funding (CRF) from the Hong Kong Research Grants Council (RGC). We have also secured 5 grants from the Innovation and Technology Fund (ITF) and 4 from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC). In addition, research capabilities of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) and the Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI) were boosted by PolyU’s Large Equipment Fund. Likewise, the establishment of the University Research Facility in Chemical and Environmental Analysis has facilitated research in the area of environmental science and engineering. Our Faculty also received funding from the Chinese Government to engage 7 mainland scholars through the Hong Kong Scholars Programme in 2015. With the establishment of two branches of the Chinese National Engineering Research Centre at PolyU, we can certainly look forward to more research collaboration with our mainland counterparts.

Our strong reputation for research excellence has resulted in a tie for 12th place with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the subject of Civil and Structural Engineering in the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings by Subject 2016. The subject of Architecture/ Built Environment was ranked 16th. These rankings have raised our international profile and attracted more overseas students to undertake further studies with us. It is telling that 6 of the 10 awardees of the 2016/17 HK PhD Fellowship in our Faculty are from countries other than China. Moreover, exchange students from leading universities abroad have added to the diversity of our student body. The number of FCE students participating in overseas exchange programmes is also at an all-time high. For the academic year 2015/16, we have almost doubled the number of non-local students in FCE from the year before that. We will introduce some of them to you in a special feature in this issue.

Our way forward is highlighted by the findings from our four departmental reviews in March and April 2016. Amongst other things, we plan to review our four-year academic programmes, divest our self-financed undergraduate programmes, focus on high-impact multi-disciplinary research and innovation on the one hand, while contributing our expertise to the One Belt One Road initiative in the development of sustainable and smart cities on the other hand. Together, we can make the rest of 2016 an unprecedented period of prosperity for FCE and beyond.

建設及環境學院於 2015 年六月起推行策略性發展計劃，至今一年，成績斐然。到了 2016 年八月底，新加入本院的學術人員將增至十七人，包括兩位傑出講座教授、三位教授、十位助理教授及兩位助理教授 ( 研究 )，大大提高本院的教研實力。自 2015 年六月，我們已獲研資局「優配研究金計劃」及「傑出青年學者計劃」分別核准批出二十九及四筆撥款，整體成功率高達四成，並另有一個項目獲「協作研究金計劃」資助。特區政府「創新及科技基金」及國家自然科學基金方面，本院亦分別取得五項及四項資助。另外，土木及環境工程學系與土地測量及地理資訊學系在年內獲理大的「大型設備基金」資助添置多套儀器，亦有所提升我們的科研能力。校方核准設立「化學及環境分析研究實驗室」，為我們的環境工程及科學研究更添便利。值得一提的是，七位內地學者透過 2015 年「香江學者計劃」資助，得以參與本院的科研工作；而隨著兩個「國家工程技術研究中心香港分中心」在理大落戶，我們與內地的科研合作必然會更趨密切。

我們在科研領域表現不凡，聲名卓著，使理大在2016 年 QS 世界大學分科排名榜的土木及結構工程範疇晉身第十二位，與美國伊利諾大學香檳分校平分春色。在建造 / 建築環境領域，理大亦高踞第十六位。這些排名不僅使我們的國際聲譽更上層樓，亦吸引了更多海外學子負笈理大。十名獲 2016/17 年度「香港博士研究生獎學金計劃」資助入讀本院的國際學生中，六人來自內地以外國家。與此同時，學生交流計劃的規模亦日益壯大：眾多來自外地頂級學府的交換生，為校園文化添上異彩，而前往海外大學交流的本院同學，人數也是歷年之冠。在 2015/16 學年，本院非本地生的人數較對上一年增長幾近一倍。今期院刊將有專文講述他們的故事。

有關四大學系的評審工作已於 2016 年 三月至四月完成，結果清晰顯示了未來的發展路向。除了檢視現行的四年制課程、停辦自資本科課程，以及聚焦具影響力的跨領域研究及發明，本院亦會配合「一帶一路」規劃，為發展可持續及智能城市作出貢獻。只要齊心協力，我們信必可使建設及環境學院在 2016 下半年以至未來更創高峰。

In an effort to reach out to new international undergraduate students who joined the Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE) this academic year and nurture a sense of belonging, a tea gathering was hosted on 30 March 2016 for some of the students. Besides meeting Prof. You-lin Xu, the Dean of FCE, and Prof. Xiaol i Ding, Associate Dean (Partnership) of FCE, the students learnt about some recent achievements of PolyU, such as its latest rankings in the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings by Subject, namely, a tie in 12th p lace for the sub ject o f C iv i l and Structura l

Engineering with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the US, and 16th place for the subject of Architecture/ Built Environment, as well as the Faculty’s success in securing Collaborative Research Funding from the Hong Kong Research Grants Council for group research and equipment purchase. Students also heard from Prof. Ding about FCE’s plans to internationalize its student body with more incoming exchange/ international students and provide more support for them. In addition, they had a chance to chat with one another about their life at PolyU and how they have adjusted to the new experience.

Besides getting used to the widely spoken Cantonese of the locals , students also had to deal wi th differences in the food, the climate, and the general pace of life. In exchange for making these small sacrifices, they get to experience a different culture and hopefully gain an insider’s perspective on it. Late last year, the QS World University Rankings revealed its annual index of the best student cities. At number eight was densely populated Hong Kong, which offers a fast-paced cultural melting pot for progressive students.

The seven FCE international students who took time out from their busy schedules for the tea gathering came from Italy, Korea, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, and Singapore respectively. They were joined by three exchange students from Canada, the UK, and the US. They range in levels from first-year to final-year of study. A few of them came to Hong Kong for the educational opportunities that they would not have had back home. According to Kang Ping Lee, a second-year student from Malaysia in the BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering programme, “Universities in Hong Kong rank well in both Asia and the world, while the tuition fee is relatively affordable compared with those in countries such as the UK and Australia. HK has some really good Civil Engineering schools which rank top in the field and PolyU’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) is one of them.”

Abigael Victorino, from the Philippines

Echoing his sentiment is Abigael Victorino, a second-y e a r s t u d e n t f r o m t h e Philippines in the BSc (Hons) p r o g r a m m e i n B u i l d i n g E n g i n e e r i n g a n d Management, “I believe that Hong Kong is the best place to learn construction as it is s u r r o u n d e d w i t h m a n y famous infrastructures...I want to learn what cannot be found in my country and have a broader view of the international construction industry.”

Abigael adds, “One of the best experiences I had was the opportunity to tour the construction site of the Central-Wanchai Bypass and see its planning and progress. This was an once-in-a-lifetime experience to see the future infrastructure that will help ease the transportation and traffic in Hong Kong Island in its construction process. I was able to learn about the reclamation techniques used by the contractors to form the 4.5 km long underwater tunnel and was able to talk to site engineers about their field. I also

本地人大多使用粵語。除了需要應付語言溝通障礙，國際學生還得適應飲食、天氣，以至生活節奏上的差異。儘管如此，他們卻可借這個寶貴機會，體驗甚至深入了解截然不同的異地文化。根據 QS 世界大學排名榜去年年底發表的年度最佳留學城市指數，香港雖然人煙稠密，卻在榜上名列第八，對喜愛熱鬧生活的學生來說，這城市絕對是一個魅力十足的文化熔爐。

七位參加茶聚的建設及環境學院國際學生，分別來自意大利、韓國、哈薩克、馬來西亞、巴基斯坦、菲律賓及新加坡。當天在座的還有三名來自加拿大、英國及美國的交換生。他們當中，有些是新生，亦有快將畢業；部分人決定來港升學，是因為這兒提供更佳的教育機會。來自馬來西亞的土木工程學 ( 榮譽 ) 工學士課程二年級生 Kang Ping Lee 說：「在亞洲以至全球，香港的大學排名也很高，但學費較英國、澳洲等地便宜，較易負擔。香港好些大學的土木工程學系均位居世界前列，理大正是當中的佼佼者。」

修讀建築工程及管理學 ( 榮譽 ) 理學士課程二年級的Abigael Victorino 對此深有同感。來自菲律賓的她說：

「香港有很多著名基建，我認為這裡是修讀建築學的最佳地點之一。我希望學習在家鄉沒有的東西，增進對國際建築業的認識。」

「最使我雀躍的一次，就是參觀中環 - 灣仔繞道的工地，透徹了解其規劃及施工進展。興建繞道，是為了紓緩港島區的交通擠塞問題，實地參觀施工情況，真是一生中難能可貴的體驗！這項基建涉及長四點五公里的海底隧道工程，我可以藉參觀工地的良機，認識承建商使用的填海技術，甚至與當值工程師傾談。上岩土工程課時，我曾到水壩及山區實地考察。走出課室的學習體驗，有助我學以致用，在現實環境中實踐理論。」

5had other fieldtrips to dams and mountains for my geotechnical class where being exposed to outside learning helped me become more practical in applying theories to real world situations.”

Speaking about her decision to attend university in Hong Kong, Isabella Iran, a first-year student from Italy pursuing a BSc (Hons) in Surveying, had this to say, “It turned out to be better than I expected. Not only is PolyU really nice and organized, but Hong Kong is also a great city, with lots of activities to do.”

Obviously, PolyU has not disappointed them. Following are some more student comments about their new life in Hong Kong.

Sami Khan, exchange student from the University of Maryland in the U.S.

“Due to the amazing CEE p r o g r a m m e a n d t h e research being done at PolyU, I wanted to study here. It also allowed for a lot of travel opportunities nearby and within HK... I have been pushed to visit different sites in order to satisfy a group project.” (Sami Khan, an exchange student from the University of Maryland)

“Since the start of the second semester, I have b e e n w o r k i n g f o r t h e

CEE department in the wastewater laboratories as a student assistant. This has given me a great opportunity to learn more about water monitoring and assessment, and also be exposed to projects that are being undertaken by the research students. By working in the lab, I have learnt a lot about different techniques used in analysing wastewater as well as researched on the different methods involved for a more environmentally sustainable option in wastewater treatment.” (Siti Muhammad Anwar, a second-year student from Singapore in the BSc (Hons) Environment and Sustainable Development programme)

PolyU has established University Entry Scholarships for outstanding international students. For 2015/16, FCE has nine of these students, with five from Kazakhstan, two from Malaysia, and one each from Pakistan and Thailand. Two of the scholarship students made it to the tea gathering. They were Junaid Khan from Pakistan and Yerkezhan Kassenova from Kazakhstan. Both of them are in the BEng (Hons) Civil Engineering programme, as is Eun Shim from Korea. With a few more years to go before they finish their studies, it is hoped that they can add some diversity to the student body and make some life-long friends. Befriending exchange students may be more challenging, as they are at PolyU for just one semester or at most a year. Both Christopher Jakubowski from the University of Calgary and Emma Beirns from the University of Leeds will return to their home universities after the end of this semester. We wish them well and hope they will promote PolyU to their friends once they are back home. FCE is working hard to attract more international/ exchange students, whose presence on campus is expected to enhance the university experience of other students.

Isabella Iran (on right), from Italy

說起來港升讀大學的決定，來自意大利、現為地產及建設測量學 ( 榮譽 ) 理學士課程一年級生的 Isabella Iran

坦言：「情況較我預期還要理想。理大是個井井有條、讓人喜愛的地方；香港更是一個了不起的城市，生活多采多姿，活動任君選擇。」

毫無疑問，理大生活並沒讓他們失望，而在席位中分享在港生活的學生，還有以下兩位：

「理大土木及環境工程學系的課程和科研工作非常吸引。來港後，我得到很多在本地及到鄰近地區旅遊考察的機會 ...... 有一次，為了完成小組專題研習，我要走訪不同的地方。」( 美國馬利蘭大學交換生 Sami Khan)

「從第二個學期起，我便在土木及環境工程學系的廢水實驗室擔任學生助理，學習更多關於水質監察和評估的知識，並接觸由研究生進行的專題科研項目。在實驗室工作讓我學會許多分析廢水的技術，又有機會參與研發不同的廢水處理方法，希望達致可持續發展的目標。」( 來自新加坡的環境與可持續發展學 ( 榮譽 ) 理學士課程二年級生 Siti Muhammad Anwar)

理大為優秀的國際學生設立了新生獎學金，在二零一五 / 一六年度，共有九名同學入讀建設及環境學院，當中五人來自哈薩克、二人來自馬來西亞，巴基斯坦及泰國亦各有一人。出席茶聚的學生中，巴基斯坦的 Junaid

Khan 及哈薩克的 Yerkezhan Kassenova 都是上述獎學金得主。兩人與來自韓國的 Eun Shim，均為土木工程學 ( 榮譽 ) 工學士課程學生。他們的加入可使校園更多元、更國際化，在歷時數載的大學生活裡，他們亦可把握機會，結交相知一生的好友。相比之下，交換生在理大修業的時間較短，從一個學期至一年不等，結交朋友或許較具挑戰性，像來自卡爾加里大學的 Christopher Jakubowski

及列斯大學的 Emma Beirns，均會於本學期結束後回國繼續學業。我們祝願其學業有成之餘，亦期望他們會向家鄉的朋友推薦理大。本院也會繼續努力，吸引更多國際學生和交換生來港，為全體同學的學習生活增添色彩。

Intelligent Transportation System Developed by CEE ScholarAn intelligent transportation system (ITS) developed by a team of researchers in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) has of late been widely reported in the local media. Led by Prof. William Lam, Head of CEE, the team made use of an integrated algorithm to estimate in real-time how long a particular route would take. To customize a reliable driving route for motorists, the algorithm takes into account the uncertainty of traffic networks (such as adverse weather and traffic accidents) and the on-time arrival probability of a traveler at a destination. Three types of traffic data are integrated and optimized, including:

1) offline travel time forecasts;2) f i l t e r e d r e a l - t i m e a u t o m a t i c v e h i c l e

identification data; and3) real-time video detector data to update the

journey time and/or traffic speed once every two minutes

In addition, the research team plans to extend the ITS to the public transportation network. It will also develop a people-oriented traffic control system to help improve the network reliability of multi-modal transport.

CEE Academic Advocates Electronic Road PricingA public consultation on a pilot scheme to charge users electronically for going onto the roads in Central was recently launched by the government of the HKSAR. According to the Secretary for Transport and Housing, Prof. Anthony Cheung, Hong Kong has conducted research on this issue for more than 30 years, and it is now time to put it into practice. Concurring with him was Dr Wing-tat Hung of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE), who pointed out that the existing technology could collect fees without infringing on commuters’ privacy, since it would not be necessary to collect the drivers’ records of vehicles.

The principle of “user-pays” has already been implemented in places like Singapore, Gothenburg in Sweden, and London in the UK, with the hours of operation from 8am to 6 (up to 8)pm. Both Singapore and Gothenburg charge different rates at different times in various zones on a “cordon basis.” In contrast, London charges a flat fee per day on an area basis. The cheapest cost charged on a “cordon basis” would be HK$3, while the most expensive one charged on an “area basis” would cost $140 per day. The experience of those cities suggests that traffic could be reduced by 15% during peak hours, and the average speed could be raised by 20%. Dr Hung believes that each pricing model has its own advantages: charging vehicles once on an area basis would be simple but not very effective; charging every time they cross the cordon points would be fairer but more complicated to implement.

The public consultation lasted for three months, after which detailed boundaries and levels of charges will be set for further research.

土木及環境工程學系學者成功研發嶄新智能交通系統

由土木及環境工程學系學者研發的嶄新智能交通系統，最近成為本地傳媒的熱門報道專題。以系主任林興強教授工程師為首的研究團隊採用綜合方法整理各種各類的交通數據，從而實時估算指定路線所需的行車時間。為了替駕駛者度身制訂可靠的行車路線，除交通網絡的一些突發因素 ( 如惡劣天氣及交通事故 )，準時到達目的地的成功率亦會納入估算範圍。系統要整合的三類不同交通數據包括

1) 離線行車時間預測；2) 從車輛自動識別檢測器收集、並經過濾的數據；

以及3) 根據視頻檢測器收集的實時數據，每兩分鐘更新

行車時間及車速。

研究團隊計劃把上述系統擴展至公共交通網絡，並希望研發一套以人為本的智能交通系統，提升多模式交通網絡的可靠性。

土木及環境工程學系學者倡議推行電子道路收費計劃

特區政府最近就於中環及鄰近地區推行「電子道路收費先導計劃」發出了公眾諮詢文件。運輸及房屋局局長張炳良教授指出，香港對有關計劃已進行了逾三十年的研究，現在正是付諸實行的時機。土木及環境工程學系的熊永達博士對此深表贊同，並表示以現行科技水平，收費時不一定需要收集駕駛者的車輛紀錄，因此可避免出現侵害私隱的情況。

事實上，「用者自付」的原則早已在新加坡、瑞典歌德堡、英國倫敦等地實施，收費時段為上午八時至下午六時 ( 最夜至晚上八時 )。新加坡及歌德堡兩地均使用周界為本的收費機制，在不同時間和區域收取不同費用；倫敦則採用區域為本的收費機制，所有於收費區內駕駛的人士一律須支付定額款項，每日計算。前者的最低收費為三港元，後者的最高收費則為每日一百四十港元。這些城市的經驗顯示，實行收費計劃後，繁忙時間的交通流量可因而減少 15%，平均車速則提升 20%。熊博士認為兩個收費模式各有優點：區域為本收費機制的 原理簡單，但成效較遜；周界為本收費機制則較為公平，但結構複雜，較難推行。

今次公眾諮詢為期三個月。當局之後會設定詳細的周界及收費水平，再作深入研究。

CEE Academic Leads Drive to Improve Taxi ServiceDr Wing-tat Hung of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) has spearheaded an initiative of the Hong Kong Taxi Council to improve service standards in the cab industry. Targeting current taxi drivers, a smartphone app covering at least 500 taxis was launched in May for customers to hail a cab and rate the quality of service they got from the cab driver. Drivers who are rated unsatisfactory will be asked to attend a four-hour training course to improve their customer service skills. Upon completion, they will receive a certificate and be recognized on the app. It is hoped this scheme will enhance the quality of service provided by the city’s cabs.

The First Smart e-City CompetitionThe first Smart e-City Competition was recently held from January to May this year. Jointly organized by the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and K&K Property Holdings Ltd., the focus of the competition was how to revitalize Kowloon East into a smart city. Nearly 150 students from disciplines as diverse as business management, building and real estate, design, and languages etc. participated in the competition. After the initial rounds in March and April, over 50 students in nine teams advanced to the final on 23 May 2016 to present their ideas to a panel of judges, which included Mr Kino Law, Chief Executive Officer of K&K Property; Ms Brenda Au, Head of the Energizing Kowloon East Office (EKEO); Dr Pamsy Hui, Associate Dean (External Relations and Development) of the Faculty of Business; and Dr Patrick Fong, Associate Head (Partnership) of the Department of Building and Real Estate.

The Champion Team was a group of six students from the Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE). Known as the Ps Surveyors, they are Chiu Yingying, Ho Cheuk Wun, Lau Nga Yi, Tai Tiffanie Hiu Lam, Tsui Yuen Shan, and Wang Pei. Their winning proposal had “Create” as its theme to encompass six broad areas, including commerce, entertainment, education, housing, transportation, and environment. It was designed according to the five principles of efficiency, energy, entertaining, eco-friendly, and economy.

According to Chiu Yingying, writing a business proposal was a big challenge for her and her teammates, since none of them had a background in commerce. “Applying our knowledge of city planning to a particular project, we need to consider many other things, such as the impact on the environment during construction, the costs of construction etc.” The competition has given them an invaluable experience. Not only did it enable them to develop a comprehensive proposal, it also deepened their understanding of the developing district of Kai Tak and the entire Kowloon East. They shared a HK$60,000 scholarship and will intern at K&K Property Holdings Ltd. for three months this summer.

The 1st Runner-up Team was the team called Tommy & Friends, with four FCE students, and one student each from the School of Design and the Faculty of Business. The FCE students were Abigael Victorino, Hong Yining, Xu Rui, and Zhang Yiang. The team of six shared a HK$40,000 scholarship. In addition, Abigael Victorino also received the Best Presenter Award, which came with a HK$10,000 scholarship and an internship at K&K Property Holdings Ltd.

The 2nd Runner-up Team was called Hexagon, which consisted of five FCE students, namely, Lai Kang Leong, Ma Ruiqu, Tong Wing Ho, Tsang King Fai, and Yik Chun Cheung, as well as Ying Jiang from the School of Design. They shared a HK$30,000 scholarship.

Celebrated Pioneer of FCE Mourned The Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE) has lost a guiding light with the passing in late January 2016 of Dr Deric Daniel Waters, a former Head of the Department of Building, Surveying, and Structural Engineering (1963-1968) at the Hong Kong Technical College, PolyU’s predecessor, and a pioneer in technical education. He came to Hong Kong in 1954 and had a long, distinguished career as an educator. He was the founding Principal of Hong Kong’s first Technical Institute at Morrison Hill in 1969 before joining the government’s Education Department a few years later to oversee the setting up of additional institutes. His leadership was instrumental to the establishment of four more technical institutes before his retirement in 1980. He was well known for his high standards and unwavering support for education in the construction disciplines. Without his contribution, FCE would not have as solid a foundation upon which to grow and flourish. Seeing it grow in stature to rank alongside leading universities worldwide was a source of enormous satisfaction and pride for him.

FCE Departmental ReviewsT o b e n c h m a r k t h e p e r f o r m a n c e o f t h e f o u r departments of the Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE) against the standards of overseas inst i tut ions, departmental reviews (DR) of the Department of Building and Real Estate (BRE), the Department of Building Services Engineering (BSE), the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) and the Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI) were recently held on di f ferent days (10-11 March for BRE, 6-7 April for BSE, 18-19 April for CEE, and 15-16 March for LSGI). Each cycle of a Departmental Review is for six years, and this is the second DR exercise conducted by Departments of the Faculty. Introduced in 2009/10 to replace the Departmental Assessment system which started in 1996/97, the DR system is a natural evolvement of the University’s quality assurance framework, from quality assessments of a department’s past performance to quality enhancements, in order to provide major input for future strategic planning and visioning of the academic departments, as well as for international benchmarking. As an instrument for quality enhancements in academic departments, the DR adopted the following six parameters for benchmarking purposes: (i) departmental planning; (ii) organization structure; (iii) academic programmes, ( iv ) qual i ty of students; (v ) students’ learning experience and outcome, and (vi) support to students, infrastructure.

Chaired by the Dean of FCE, Prof. You-lin Xu, the review panel for each department is made up of a Departmental Academic Advisor, three overseas senior academics, and two local members (an external expert from industry or a relevant government department and a senior academic from another department of PolyU). Among the issues under review were each department’s mission, vision, strategic plan, organization, staffing and resources, its academic programmes, and its research development. Besides meeting with the relevant Departmental Committees, such as the Departmental Management Committee, Departmental Programme Committee, Departmental Learning and Teaching Committee as well as the Departmental Research Committee, each respective review panel also met with industry representatives, alumni, and students of the department concerned. Visits to Departmental laboratories and reviews of student works and examination papers were also conducted by panel members. Each DR concluded with a review of how the department compares with academic departments elsewhere in the same discipline areas and strategic input for its future planning, particularly with respect to international benchmarks was provided.

FCE Academics Led Seminar for CPDOn 21 April 2016, three academics from the Faculty of Construction and Environment (FCE) gave a seminar on the use of remote sensing for monitoring vegetation in Hong Kong. Organized by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) for the purpose of continuing professional development (CPD), the seminar covered some key features and technologies for monitoring vegetation, which contains large reserves of carbon that are vulnerable to disturbance from human activities such as development and climate change. Dr Charles Wong of the Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI) talked about a Green Index Map of Hong Kong, while his colleague from the same department, Dr Wallace Lai, shared his research on tree trunks and tree roots using nondestructive survey methods. Dr Ben Leu of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) spoke about the effects of climate change on forests and carbon sequestration modelling. All three studies were the first of their kind to integrate multi-scale high resolution satellite imagery, airborne LiDAR data, in-situ measurements and numerical modeling to derive a baseline study on vegetation in Hong Kong. It is a relief that accurate estimates of vegetation, vegetation health, and biomass carbon in Hong Kong are available for ecosystem conservation and the future development of our city.
