Qīng-dynasty naval official and maritime geographer; zì Zīzhāi 資齋; native of Tóng’ān 同安 (modern Xiàmén area, Fújiàn). Son of Chén Áng 陳昻 (q.v.), the Mǎnzhōu-banner naval officer who had served under Shī Láng 施琅 in the 1683 pacification of Táiwān. Chén Lúnjiǒng grew up in his father’s company at sea, gaining first-hand familiarity with the FújiànGuǎngdōng littoral, the Táiwān strait, and the wider routes of the Nányáng trade. Through hereditary privilege (yīn 蔭) he entered the imperial guard (shìwèi 侍衛), then rose through naval commands at Pénghú (vice-commander 副將), Táiwān (zhèn zǒngbīng 鎮總兵官), and the Guǎngdōng coastal garrisons of GāoLéiLián 高雷廉, the Jiāngnán garrisons of Chóngmíng 崇明 and Lángshān 狼山, before being appointed Zhèjiāng Shuǐshī tídū 浙江水師提督 (Zhèjiāng provincial naval commander). His CBDB record (no. 58797, with the variant graph 烱 for 炯) gives the death year 1751; Wilkinson reports the floruit as 1703–1730. He compiled the Hǎiguó wénjiànlù KR2k0152 in 1730, drawing on the combined maritime experience of two generations.
