My career goals as a scientist are to improve our understanding on how human activities impact the Earth’s water and nitrogen cycles and consequently to inform decision-makers in achieving environmental and food co-benefits. My research has focused on agricultural soils, which are the largest consumer of global water and nitrogen resources and have imposed negative effects on environment and human health. The overarching question for my research is How agricultural soils can be sustainably managed to meet the increasing crop demand in the context of global environmental change and human pressure. The specific research questions I have addressed include: 1) How strongly do environmental and anthropogenic drivers influence the change in water cycle? 2) What are the major biogeochemical and socioeconomic processes that contribute to soil nitrogen losses across different interfaces? 3) How much mitigation of soil N losses could be achieved without compromising crop production, and where are the best opportunities? To address these questions, I have closely collaborated with numbers of first-class field experimentalists, modelers, and data scientists worldwide and led multiple interdisciplinary and international research teams to develop experiments, models, and analyses.

I have maintained a vibrant research program with total grants of >4.0 million US dollars. I have published >100 articles in peer-reviewed journals (e.g., PNAS and Nature Food as first or corresponding author) with total citations of >2900 and h-index of 33 (Google Scholar). As of now I have designed and taught three courses, and mentored 21 students (5 Ph.D., 8 master, 12 undergraduate), 6 postdoctoral researchers, and 7 visiting scholars. In addition, I have provided considerable services in PKU and for the broader science community (e.g., Associate Editor for Global Biogeochemical Cycles and Biogeochemistry, Committee Member for 3 global research projects). I have awarded by the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars and as the Young Cheung Kong Scholar issued to China's domestic top scholars by the Ministry of Education (300 scientists per year for all disciplines).
