ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES
2014.09, attended the 4th International Agricultural Soil Carbon Sequestration and Climate Change Forum

2014.11, attended the 2014’Yangling International Agri-Science Forum

2015.10, attended the International Symposium on Forest Soils: “Linking Soil
Process to Forest Productivity and Water Protection under Global Change”.

2015.11, attended and gave the oral presentation in the Graduate student Innovation Forum of College of Agronomy, Northwest A&F University.


EXPERIENCE OF GOING ABROAD
2016.11, I attended and gave the oral presentation in the International Annual Meeting of the American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America (see the annual-meeting-attendance-certificate). This meeting took place on November 6-9, 2016 in Phoenix, AZ, USA. The title for our oral presentation was“Despite strong temporal responses, soil microbial communities in afforested land are less susceptible to temporal variability than that in farmland”.
