Summary
Principle research interests
My research works currently focus on conservation genetics of the threatened species of pheasants (Brown eared pheasant and Reeves’s pheasant), population dynamics and habitat protection of the waterbirds along the Bohai Bay. I am also interest in the breeding behaviors of Hair-crested Drongo,Pengduline tit and House Martin.
