　　Research interests

　　My research interest is to study some typical measures of soil and water conservation and its benefits assessment, and  hydrological consequences of watershed management in the loess plateau (e.g., soil moisture, overland flow, and infiltration affected by land uses) by using stable isotopic signatures to near- surface hydrological systems. I also appreciate to use various approaches including field measurements and experiments, numerical modeling, geostatistical analysis to evaluate water bearing capacity in loess hilly region.

　　Seleted Publications：

　　I had published more than 100 papers, and written four books as co-editors. Papers had been published  in many key periodicals in soil and water conservation science, such as journal of Chinese Soil And Water Science,  Journal of Soil And Water Conservation,  Acta Ecologia Sinica,  Journal of Applied Ecology, Advances in Water Science, Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, Transaction of the Chinese Society of Agricultural Engineering. listed below is part of that.
