To whom it may concern,
I am a PhD candidate from Zhejiang University, China, and will get the
doctoral degree this June. During my PhD studies, I mainly focus on
human and nature coupled biogeochemistry (including nitrogen and
carbon cycling on a large scale), and urban ecology (mainly testing
the role of human in urban ecosystem).
Our new paper about coupled human and nature nitrogen cycling in
urbanized region published in Environ. Res. Lett. (Gu et al., 2011)
has been download over 500 times in 41 days after online, which lists
top 3% of all paper published in IOP journals.
I also interest in the connection between nitrogen cycling and human
health, and further how this connection changes global climate and
environment on the basis on socioeconomic development.
