I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Marine Chemistry at Xiamen University, China. My research interests are centered around biogeochemical cycles in the ocean, with the objective of constraining the mechanism governing carbon and oxygen cycling in the context of a changing climate. I combine a wide spectrum of scientific approaches including deck incubations, biogeochemical sensor data from autonomous platforms, satellite observations, as well as statistical and biogeochemical modeling. More specifically, I focus on:
- Biological pump and ocean productivity
- Biogeochemical cycling of carbon and oxygen
- Autonomous platform observations
- Physical and biochemical controls on planktonic and bacterial metabolism
- Marine Ecology
