Zhang Zhihua, Ph.D. of the University of California, USA, distinguished professor of "Mount Taishan Scholar" in Shandong Province, leader of the interdisciplinary big data mining team and director of the climate simulation laboratory, was invited to serve as the chairman of the first branch of the annual meeting of the Mediterranean Geoscience Society (MedGU), and the tenth chairman of the annual meeting of the Mediterranean Society for Life Sciences (MedLIFE). Published over 70 SCI/SSCI papers as the sole first (or corresponding) author, authored 5 monographs as the sole first author in Elsevier/Springer/DeGruyter, co authored 1 book, participated in 3 books, co authored 6 special issues of SCI/SSCI journals, and was invited multiple times to give keynote/lecture presentations at internationally renowned conferences. The research results systematically establish an artificial intelligence theoretical system with framework theory and network theory as the core, serving the national science and technology strategy: 1 The big data-driven near real-time Arctic route optimization system developed has been recognized as a representative achievement by the flagship project of the EU Horizon 2020 framework program, serving the national "Ice Silk Road" strategy. The big data-driven strategy for optimizing the utilization of water resources proposed has been adopted in the special report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), serving the national "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" strategy. 3. The high-precision and high-resolution environmental evolution map technology developed was invited to give a conference report at the annual meeting of the Mediterranean Society for Geosciences (MedGU), serving the "Digital China" strategy. The multifractal modeling of the first national climate system presented internationally has been recognized as a featured paper in a top mathematical journal. The impact assessment of climate engineering on coral has been reported by the internationally renowned New Scientist. 6. Invited to interpret the State Council's climate change policy and action report in the first edition of the China Social Science Journal, serving the country's "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" strategy.

Zhang Zhihua has been invited to serve as the editor in chief of the international journal Int J Big Data Mining for Global Warming, the editor in chief of the international journal Amer J Climate Change, the associate editor of the SCI journal EURISIP J Adv Signal Process, the associate editor of the SCI journal Environment Dev Sustain, the associate editor of the SSCI journal Int J Climate Change Strat&Manag, the editor in chief of the SCI journal Earth Science Informatics, the SCI journal Mathematics, the SCI journal PLoS ONE, the SCI journal Int J Global Warming, the SCI journal J Cleaner Prod, the SCI journal Open Geosci, and the SCI journal Maejo Int J Sci. Tech editorial board member, SCI journal Adv Meteorology editorial board member, etc.

Zhang Zhihua serves as the Chinese host of ePIcenter, the flagship project of the European Union's Horizon 2020 framework program (with a total project budget of 7.55 million euros), the third host of the Qinghai Tibet Scientific Expedition Project of the Ministry of Science and Technology (officially appointed by the Ministry of Science and Technology with a total project budget of 46.16 million euros), and the host of multiple national and provincial scientific research projects. Zhang Zhihua has won the Outstanding Conference keynote speech award and Outstanding Editor award of the Mediterranean Society for Geosciences (MedGU), the Outstanding Work and Scientific Contribution Award of AJGS Journal, and the PLoS Long term Service Award. Zhang Zhihua was invited to serve as a member of the Education Committee of the International Coral Reef Society, a lifelong member of the European Geoscience Society, a review expert of the United Nations IPCC report, a review expert of the United Nations Regional Development Center, a review expert of the Swiss National Science Foundation, an online review expert of the the State Natural Science Award, and a review expert of the demonstration (acceptance) of the achievements of the Ministry of Environmental Protection's climate change response project.
