Limi Mao is Professor at Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, His research field is Quaternary Palynology and he is interested in Pollen morphology, mangrove Palynology and vegetation history. Limi Mao received his Ph.D at Osaka City University on Holocene mangrove vegetation history on Hainan Island of China in 2004. Then he began his postdoctoral study on airborne pollen and distribution in Western China Xinjiang during 2005 and 2007 at Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IBCAS). Since 2008, he has been based at Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (NIGPAS), and his study has been mainly focusing on mangrove history and palaeobiogeography, pollen morphology, particularly for mangrove pollen flora of China, and cultivated cereals associated with human agriculture. He received his full Professor at NIGPAS in 2017.

Junwu Shu is Associate Professor at Nanjing Institute of Geology and Palaeontology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (NIGPAS). His research filed is Quaternary Palynology and Archaeological Environment and he is interested in Pre-historical Rice Agriculture, Human impact, Vegetation History and Grassland. Junwu SHU finished his PhD at NIGPAS focusing on understanding early rice-cultivator's role in Neolithic vegetation change and landscape dynamics in the center of early rice agriculture in the Yangtze River region, eastern China in 2007. Afterward, he got a JSPS postdoctoral scholarship in Japan to compare Quaternary vegetation history, fire regime and human-nature relationship between eastern China and western Japan. Later, he became an Associate Professor and put new insights that the traditional agriculture practice
