Current research interests

I am currently a Prof. in Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences. My research focus on trying to understand the effects of environmental change on the vegetation dynamics in the Cenozoic. I try to integrate a number of approaches and methodologies, including palynology and climate and vegetation modelling to reconstruct the palaeovegetation, palaeoclimate in China or global area.
