Project experience
During my undergrad, I participated a series of projects discovering the biogeochemical process in natural system. For example, I conducted an individual project on finding the trade-off correlation between cadmium and arsenic surrounding the soil capillary fringe. In addition, I also did a large-scale field study discovering the nitrogen circulation at a tidal-intense estuary. However, it is a disappointment to only identify the environmental issues without solving them.
Therefore, I come to study in Michigan to seek for solutions with the engineering tools. Currently, I am assisting with the research on discovering the UV disinfection effects on the microbial community in drinking water systems.
