海洋保护|Marine conservation

I am interested in integrating ecology, evolution, genetics, and spatial analysis to achieve more effective conservation and management. These multidisciplinary research tools are used to reveal biodiversity patterns, spatial structure and connectivity corridors, as well as the responses of protected animals and communities to environmental change, to inform population conservation of endangered species and marine protected area selection. In addition, I am attempting to establish techniques for environmental DNA metabarcoding to assess the impact of human activities on marine biodiversity.
