Overview
Currently, his primary research focuses on aeolian provenance and sedimentary chronology, arid environment and climate change, as well as the dual influence of human activity and natural forces on salt lake resources. His significant findings have been published in reputable journals such as Geomorphology, ESP&L, Palaeo-3, Holocene, OGR, EES, JGS, Catena, ESR and so on. He is an expert in academic dissertations of CAS, and a reviewer of many academic journals (including Chinese and English) such as QR, QI, FES, QS, JDR, JEE, and a corresponding reviewer of NSFC.
