Research interests:
My research have three main areas:
1) conservation biology of birds and big mammals;
In the past ten years we surveyed the distribution range and population size of some endangered species of birds and big mammals in northwest parts of China such as Falco cherrug, Chlamydotis undulata, Panthera uncia, and Capra sibirica. By doing this we provided first hand data on the surviving status of these endangered species in China.
2) the life history theories and island biogeography of amphibians and reptiles;
We also detected the reason why the body size of the frog enlarged on the islands by the life history theory. We found that predator pressure was the most important reason shaped the pattern.
3) animal behavior of birds and lizards;
Recently my research is about animal behavior. I am interested about how the animal’s behavior affected by predators and human disturbance.
