Research Interests
My research mainly focuses on quantifying the response of soil organic carbon to global changes (e.g., global warming, climate extreme, elevated CO2). Taking advantage of a global data set of SOC measurements in soil profiles across the globe, we developed a hybrid approach combining Space-for-time substitution and Meta-analysis. Using this approach, I quantified the response of soil profile organic carbon to global warming and climate extremes and mapped the spatial pattern of these responses across the globe. Besides, I am also interested in predicting the dynamics of whole-soil profile organic carbon by using soil carbon model, especially under climate change.
