Research

Biogeochemical cycling in estuarine and coastal systems by molecular isotopic (13C, 14C and D/H) studies of organic matter and nitrogen isotope of related organic matter.
Studies of climate and environmental change or global change.
The fate and transportation of organic matter in the contemporary and past marine and lacustrine environment.

My current projects include the vegetational evolution, changes in C3 and C4 plants during the last glacial in Southern China, as well as continental and sea-surface paleotemperature reconstruction by organic geochemical proxies.
