Reasearch interest

I am currently focusing on the geochemistry cycling of the sulfur in the marine atmosphere at the polar region from the insight of high dimensional stable isotopes and global atmospheric models like GEOS-Chem. I am also interested in conducting the formation mechanism of atmospheric particles in urban and marine areas, especially the misterious of mass-independent fractionation.
