Xinping Hu is the Endowed Chair for Ecosystem Science and Modeling at the Harte Research Institute and an associate professor in chemical oceanography at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC). His research interest includes coastal and estuarine carbon cycle, ocean and estuarine acidification, sediment biogeochemistry, and stable isotope biogeochemistry. His major contributions include the discovery of multidecadal dealkalization and acidification in estuaries of the northwestern Gulf of Mexico, theorization of an "estuarine minimum buffer zone", and studies focusing on hypoxia issues. His current research includes examining carbon fluxes and ocean acidification in estuaries, hydrological control on estuarine biogeochemistry, and long-term changes in ocean margin CO2 levels and fluxes. His research has been funded by the Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative, Texas Sea Grant, Texas Water Development Board, Coastal Bend Bays and Estuaries Program, Texas General Land Office Coastal Management Program, National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Gulf Research Program, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and National Science Foundation. Prior to joining TAMU-CC, he received a BS degree in Chemistry in Peking University in 1997, a PhD degree in Oceanography at Old Dominion University in 2007, after which he went to the University of Georgia, first working as a postdoc associate and then an assistant research scientist in the Department of Marine Science, from 2007 to 2012.

Anna Rubio received her Ph.D. thesis in Physical Oceanography from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (Spain) in 2006. Her work is mainly focused on ocean mesoscale variability, based on different source in situ and remote sensing data, including high frequency ocean surface currents from HF radar, and numerical modelling. She authored/co-authored >45 peer-reviewed papers (H-index 16), has supervised 2 successful PhDs (currently supervising 2 PhD students), 7 successful MSc candidates, participated in 7 PhD committees and to the review of several scientific projects, articles and book chapters. She is Topic Editor in Ocean Science and Frontiers in Marine Science. She has been involved in JERICO-NEXT (leading JRAP4 in WP4), CMEMS-INCREASE, CMEMS-SE COMBAT, CMEMS UU IBISAR, MYCOAST (Interreg Atlantic Area) and LIFE-LEMA (LIFE) projects. Currently, she participates in CMEMS-IN Situ TAC-phase II, H2020 SUSTUNTECH, EUROSEA, H2020 JERICO-s3 (leading WP1 on JERICO-SI Science Strategy) and FORCOAST (Leading WP2 – User Engagement) projects in tasks related to operational oceanography and HF radar technology and its applications to different sectors, including: the monitoring and forecast of marine litter hotspots, search and rescue activities, fisheries and bivalve mariculture. She is also involved in European networking initiatives (Member of EuroGOOS HFR Task Team, Vice-chair of the EuroGOOS Coastal Working Group).
