Editors Biography
Dr. Khan M. G. Mostofa Photochemist and
Geochemist, is a Research Scientist at the State
Key Laboratory of Environmental Geochemistry,
Institute of Geochemistry, the Chinese Academy of
Sciences, PR China. He received double MS degree
(Chemistry, Jahangirnagar University, Dhaka,
Bangladesh in 1992 and Biogeochemistry, Institute
for Hydrospheric-Atmospheric Sciences (IHAS),
Nagoya University, Japan in 2001) and Ph.D degree
from Hiroshima University, Japan, in 2005 in the field of Environmental Dynamics
and Management. Dr. Mostofa then joined as a postdoctoral fellow the Institute
of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China, 2006–2008. He has then
been appointed as Associate Professor in the same Institute on 2008 and presently
holds that position. Dr. Mostofa also worked as key researcher on several international projects, particularly on the Montreal Protocol Project entitled ‘Institutional
strengthening for the Phase out of ODSs in Bangladesh’, 1996–1999, Bangladesh
and the global “International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP)” project, 1999–
2001, Japan. Currently, Dr. Mostofa served as reviewer for several international
peer-reviewed Journals. His key researches are mostly focused on the photobio-geochemistry of organic matter and nutrients, characterization and identification
of organic substances of both allochthonous and autochthonous origins, complexation of OM with trace metal ions, photosynthesis and global warming.
Approximately three years were needed to complete the primary drafts of the manuscripts for the ten chapters in this book.
