Research
I am a marine scientist with a focus on estuarine and coastal biogeochemistry and water quality. My research is interdisciplinary and combines elements of marine optics, remote sensing, organic geochemistry and photochemistry to promote a better quantitative understanding of various types of interactions between terrestrial and marine environments and their perturbations by climate change and human activities. It typically involves a combination of field work, laboratory-based analyses and experiments, remote sensing data and image analysis, and modeling.
Research topics of particular interest include:
- 环境al and biogeochemical change in the Arctic Ocean
- Climate- and human-driven changes in estuarine/coastal biogeochemistry and water quality
- Remote sensing of aquatic biogeochemical properties and water quality
- Impacts of UV radiation and photochemical processes on biogeochemical cycles
- Fate of land-derived carbon in the ocean and impacts on marine biogeochemistry
- Fate of contaminants in aquatic environments
