I came from Kunming, the capital of Yunnan Province in south China, It is a beautiful city with ample ecological biodiversity. The natural environment develops my curiosity and love in nature science. I graduated from Hunan University in China with a B.S. degree in Biotechnology. Soon after my graduation, I came to Montclair State University in fall 2010 to pursue my Ph.D. degree study in Environmental Management.
With urban expansion and economic development in coastal areas, toxic metal contamination in coastal waters and sediments is one of is a public concerns and has received much attention. To better understand biogeochemical cycle of metals in estuarine and coastal ecosystems, my current mechanism study of metal translocation between sediments and wetland plants under different environmental conditions. The goal of this study is to improve our current knowledge for sustainable development in coastal urban areas. Measurement of metal concentration is currently being conducted using Synchrotron-based techniques at Brookhaven National Laboratory under the guidance of Dr. Huan Feng
