Personal Information

l am an Associate Researcher at the Center for Watershed Ecology, Nanchang University. My interest is wetland ecosystem ecology and biogeochemistry under global change. Now, my research mainly concentrates on the effects of seasonal flooding on soil carbon cycling in the largest freshwater lake in China (Poyang Lake). I has published 43 researchpapers  with over 1,100 citations and an H-index of 20 on Google Scholar.
