Research Interests

·     Tracing the sources and fate of particulate organic carbon and studying the interaction between organic carbon and mineral property in the South China Sea by analyzing the contents of total organic carbon and total nitrogen, stable carbon and radiocarbon isotope (δ13C and Δ14C) of organic carbon, and mineralogical assemblages and surface area of sediments.
