lt;p>Prof. Peiyue Li is currently working as a Full Professor in the field of hydrogeology and environmental sciences at Chang'an University, China. Professor Peiyue Li holds a Ph.D. in Groundwater Science and Engineering from Chang'an University (2014), and has wide experience in groundwater quality assessment, hydrogeochemistry, and groundwater modeling. He has edited and co-edited 9 textbooks and academic monographs, and published over 180 articles in refereed journals on topics that range from groundwater quality assessment and groundwater hydrochemistry to groundwater pumping tests and in situ tracer tests. He at present serves as Associate Editors for Exposure and Health, Mine Water and the Environment, Archive of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, Discover Water, Human and Ecological Risk Assessment, and Frontiers in Environmental Science, published by Springer Nature, Taylor and Francis, and Frontiers, and is an editorial board member for Water, Hydrology, and some national key journals. He was selected into the national "Ten Thousand Talents Program", and awarded the Ministry of Education's Young Changjiang Scholars in 2018. He has led or is leading more than 30 research projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and other national and provincial agencies, and has been awarded one of the most highly cited researchers by Clarivate, Elsevier, and other organizations.

Dr. Jianhua Wu is currently working as an associate professor in the Department of Hydrology at the School of Water and Environment, Chang'an University. Her research mainly focuses on hydrology and water resources in arid areas, loess seepage and its disaster mechanisms, and groundwater environmental protection. She has led and participated in more than 10 research projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC). She has published more than 80 academic papers in international journals, including over 50 as the first/corresponding author in SCI-indexed journals. The topics of her publications cover groundwater quality assessment, groundwater hydrochemistry, human health risk assessment related to exposure to groundwater pollution and groundwater circulation in loess aquifers. She has 16 papers selected as highly cited papers and hot papers by ESI (Essential Science Indicators). Her paper coauthored with colleagues was published in Nature and was recognized as one of the top ten highlights of Nature journal in 2014. She currently serves as an associate editor for the international journal Exposure and Health, and is a reviewer for various international journals. She has been awarded one of the most highly cited researchers by Clarivate, Elsevier, and other organizations.

Dr. Wanfang Zhou has more than 30 years' experience in hydrogeology and environmental engineering. His research interests include environmental and engineering impacts of karst, prevention and mitigation of mining-induced hazards, development of eco-friendly coal mining methods, and characterization and remediation of contaminated land. He provided technical support to more than 300 research and consulting projects. He is the author or co-author of eight professional books, six topical journal issues, and more than 80 peer-reviewed articles. He serves as associate editor of Mine Water and the Environment and on editorial board in Environmental Earth Sciences and Carbonates and Evaporites.
