Experience
My research interests include fisheries eco-environmental monitoring, essential habitat assessment, resource conservation and discrimination of the geographic origin of fishery products. I have 20 years’ research experience in corresponding conservation biology, pollution ecology, and eco-toxicology, especially through the use of bioindicators (e.g., otolith microchemistry of freshwater, diadromous and marine fishes; “Freshwater Mussel Watch” monitoring).
Projects
- “Microchemical fingerprints” in third pereiopods of Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis) from the Yangchenghu Lake and their characteristics for authentication of the crab.
- Connectivity in Coilia nasus from Poyang Lake, Changjiang River, and adjacent Yellow Sea areas based on otolith microchemistry.
- Metal pollution monitoring in the Taihu Lake by “Freshwater Mussel Watch” of Anodonta woodiana.
