My current research focuses on the microbial oceanography of marine nitrogen cycling. The marine nitrogen cycle is perhaps the most complex and therefore the most fascinating among all biogeochemical cycle in the sea. In the sea, the nitrogen’s flux, budget and balance mainly are driven by microbial metabolism. However, we have just barely begun to understand its major process and factor the regular them. So the research for marine nitrogen cycle would be a very challengeable and interesting work.

My studies will investigate the microbial nitrogen cycle in theSouth China Seaand Pear Rive Estuary with molecular and stable isotopic technology. SCS located in the subtropics, is a typical oligotrophic marginal sea. However, the N-compounds in the sediment are very high concentration. So the nitrogen cycle would be a very interesting issue in the SCS. The pear rive estuary (PRE) is located in the Pearl River Delta (PRD), one of the leading economic regions and a major manufacturing center ofChina. Reactive nitrogen is one of most important pollutant in the PRE. To optimize regional allocation of investments in reduced nitrogen load it is therefore essential to evaluate the sensitivity and the nitrogen retention capacity of the local aquatic systems including estuaries.

My research focus on marine nitrogen biogeochemical cycle, includes: (1) Quantifying denitrification and anammox, AOB and AOA, population diversity and structure. (2) Assessing the denitrification and anammox, AOB and AOA, population dynamics in response to the environmental factors, for example temperature, some heavy metal pollutants, the concentrations of reactive nitrogen and so on. (3)Determine the transformation rate and quantitative relationship with denitrification and anammox, AOB and AOA. (4) Conforming the general mechanism of microbial reactive nitrogen transformation in the estuary affected by the artificial activity. (5) Nitrogen and oxygen isotopic analysis of nitrate with. Through these researches, I hope to make deeper insight into the relationship among nitrogen cycle, marine environment and climate change in the SCS and the PRE. In a word, I want to answer how human’s activities change the marine nitrogen cycle and what ecological effect the change can result in.
