Dr. Luo Yiqi

Professor of Ecosystem Science, Center for Ecosystem Science and Society, Northern Arizona University, US

Luo earned his Bachelor’s degree from Yangzhou University (formerly Jiangsu Agriculture College) in 1982.

Luo is a professor of Ecology at Northern Arizona University. He got his PhD degree from University of California, Davis in 1991. He was trained as an ecologist with an emphasis on systems analysis and modeling. His current research focuses on the data-model integration to improve our ability for predicting ecosystem responses to global change. Dr. Luo’s research is aimed to understand interactions and dynamics of carbon, nutrient, and water resources in ecosystems. His work concerns a variety of ecosystems types, including forests, grasslands, and coastal wetlands. He is particularly interested in how ecophysiological processes are manifested at the ecosystems levels and used to address issues in global change including terrestrial carbon sequestration and atmosphere-biosphere coupling. Now he is editor-in chief of Advance in Ecological Research; associate editors of Ecological Applications, Journal of Plan Ecology, Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, advisory boards to editors: New Phytologist, Global Change Biology.
