Graduation School: Beijing Forestry University
Office: 325, Jingyuan Building
I graduated from Beijing Forestry University with a PhD degree, and now works as a lecturer of Landscape Architecture Department in Huazhong Agricultural University. I mainly taught Ornamental Dendrology, Design and Construction of plant landscape. My research directions included but not limited to ornamental plant application and urban ecology, planning and design of urban green spaces. My core research focused on urban tree phenology and its response to spatiotemporal climate variability. The climate vulnerability of urban trees and greening in harsh urban habitats are also in my academic interests. I love plants, nature and care for climate change, expecting a more sustainable urban living environment and harmonious coexistence between human and nature in the future. I hope my research and teaching can help achieve that.
