My work at BGI
- Development of the microbially explicit soil organic carbon model, Jena Soil Model (JSM, Yu et al. 2020), to account for the effects of carbon-nutrient intereactions, explicit microbial processes, and organo-mineral association on SOM formation and turnover.
- Contribution to the development of the QUINCY model (Thum et al. 2019), mainly in the phosphorus cycle and soil biogeochemical processes
- evaluation of JSM and QUINCY model at a range of beech forest sites along a P availability gradient
- Improvement of soil phosphorus cycling processes in QUINCY
- Projects involved: SPP1685, QUINCY
Research Interests:
- terrestrial phosphorus cycle
- soil phosphorus processes
- interaction between carbon cycle and nutrient cycles, e.g. the phosphorus cycle
