I primarily study invasive species, especially
their impacts on native ecosystems with the applications of several
quantitative/ qualitative modeling techniques such as loop analysis
and Bayesian inference network. I worked on the interaction between
the introduced bullfrogs (Rana catesbeiana) and native amphibians,
and used Bayesian models to predict the potential affected habitats
and habitats to be conserved. I am now involved with study on New
Zealand mud snails (Potamopyrgus antipodarum), including their adaptation,
spreading, and interaction with native species in Oregon.
Besides my research and study, I work as an aquarist in the visitor
center of Hatfield Marine Science Center, Oregon State University
in Newport. I enjoy the outdoor life here especially the fishing.
I also play basketball and badminton.
