Shibo Fang joined the faculty of the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences in 2007. Fang is well known for his agriculture remote sensing and agriculture ecosystem response to climate change expertise, organizational ability, and program leadership. He worked on Climate change, Surface solar radiation variation, Agriculture ecosystem response to climate change, Climate risks in agriculture, Risks of food security, as well as Climate change and extreme events. Now he would pay more attention to integrated modeling tools for climate, land use, energy and water  strategies.

He mainly concentrate on climate change (such as precipetation,  temperature and extreme temperature trend; surface  solar  radiation trend and its relationship with air pollution), agriculture remote sensing, agriculture ecosystem response to climate change, climate risks in agriculture, risks of food security, and climate change and extreme events. Now he would move  to imodeling for climate, land use, energy and water  strategies.
