I’ve just joined the Department of Ecology and Environmental Science at UmeΓ₯ University, Sweden! πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ͺ My postdoc research will focus on plant water use and evapotranspiration in Arctic ecosystems using isotopes and hydrological monitoring. UmeΓ₯ lies in a beautiful forest, and fika tradition is so cozy.

Just attended the China Annual Conference on Hydrology and Geographical Sciences β€” deeply impressed by the field visit to a national research station. Massive soil columns and a manually excavated 45-meter deep borehole, monitored every 20 cm, with an elevator to the bottom.

Just passed my PhD defense successfully!
Grateful for all the support along the way β€” supervisors, collaborators, and friends. Looking forward to the next chapter in ecohydrology research!

We estimated epikarst hydraulic conductivity (Kh) using slug tests. Steady-flow models underestimated Kh, while non-steady simulations worked better when Reβ€―>β€―17. Soil-filled fractures shaped flow paths, revealing key controls on water availability in karst. #karst #hydrology

New study: We examined how heterogeneous soil–rock structures affect subsurface stormflow in karst. Thicker soils reduced outflow, porous gravels boosted evaporation, and rainfall intensity flipped flow paths. Key insights for modeling runoff in complex terrains.

Attending EGU25 brought me to the beautiful city of Vienna, a place filled with history, music, and art. I was especially thrilled to visit my favorite art museum, where every masterpiece offered a profound dialogue with the past.

Montreal, the β€œLittle Paris of North America,” is full of French charm. The city’s style is quite similar to Harbin, with a touch of cyberpunk. The churches are beautiful. Here, French is more prevalent than English, making it quite challenging to understand the signs.
