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, 20062008. 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, 19961999, 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.

Davide Vione Received his summa cum laude


Laurea degree in Chemistry at the University of
Torino (Italy) in 1998, and the Ph.D. in Chemistry
in 2001. In 20022011 he has been University
Lecturer in Torino, and he was appointed Associate
Professor in 2011. His research interests focus on
environmental photochemistry, particularly the
sunlight-driven processes that involve transient
species in surface and atmospheric waters, and
on Advanced Oxidation Processes for water and
wastewater decontamination. In June 2012 the ISI
database reported 107 entries under his name, with
1,499 citations and h index 22 (for Scopus: 110 entries, 1,549 citations, h index 22).
In 2003 Dr. Vione was presented the Young Researchers award from the Analytical
Chemistry division of the Italian Chemical Society (SCI) and the European Young
Researcher of the Year award by the European Association of Chemistry and the
Environment (ACE). He is Editorial Board Member of the E-Journal of Chemistry,
and reviews around 30 articles per year for several environmental chemistry journals. Dr. Vione has contributed some chapters as a co-author as well as an editor of
this book.

Dr. M. Abdul Mottaleb Received B.Sc.


(Honors) and Masters of Science degree in Applied
Chemistry from the University of Rajshahi,
Rajshahi, Bangladesh. He earned his Ph.D. degree
in Analytical and Environmental Chemistry/
Sciences from the University of Strathclyde,
Glasgow, UK. Over past 22 years Dr. Mottaleb
got experience in teaching and research in the area
of analytical and environmental sciences in different countries: Bangladesh, United Kingdom,
South Korea and the United States of America. Examples are (i) Scientific officer,
Bangladesh Atomic Energy Commission, (ii) Associate Professor in Chemistry,
University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh, (iii) KOSFE postdoctoral research fellow,
South Korea, (iv) Research Associate, National Exposure Research Laboratory,
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Las Vegas, Nevada, and (v)
Research Scientist/Professor, Baylor University, Texas. Dr. Mottaleb was a recipient of the Science Achievement Awards (SAA) in Chemistry 2005, and Science
& Technological Achievement Awards (STAA) 2005, offered by U.S. EPA and
American Chemical Society, for his outstanding and impressive discovery of emerging contaminants and nitro musk-haemoglobin adducts in aquatic organisms such as
fish. Currently Dr. Mottaleb is working as an Analytical Chemist at the Center for
Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Northwest Missouri State University, USA and is

also serving as Editorial Board Member of peer-reviewed journals; Phytochemical


Analysis, Maejo International Journal of Science and Technology, International
Journal of Current Research, International Journal of Pure and Applied Sciences and
Technology as well as a reviewer for many professional journals. Dr. Mottaleb contributes some chapters as a co-author as well as an editor of this book.

Dr. Takahito Yoshioka Received his Doctor of


Science degree from Nagoya University on the
mechanism of lacustrine nitrification. Dr. Yoshioka
got experience in several organizations such as
the Mitsubishi-Kasei Institute for Life Sciences
(19841986), Faculty of Science in Shinshu
University (19881992), Institute for HydrosphericAtmospheric Sciences in Nagoya University
(19932000), Research Institute for Humanity and
Nature (20012006) and Field Science Education
and Research Center in Kyoto University (2007 to
date). Dr. Yoshioka is distinguished as one of the Japanese pioneers of stable isotope
ecology. Dr. Yoshioka was awarded a Biwako Prize for Ecology in 1999, for his outstanding contribution to stable isotope studies of lacustrine ecosystems. During the
IGBP project (19972001), Dr. Yoshioka studied the dynamics of freshwater dissolved organic matter with Dr. Mostofa, using three-dimensional Fluorescence
Spectroscopy, Ultra-filtration and Stable Isotope Techniques. Dr. Yoshioka was former Editor-In-Chief of Limnology (Springer-Verlag) and will contribute some chapters as co-author as well as an editor of this book.
