My research focusses on land use and policies in rural areas. The specific research interests include four aspects: (1) land use change monitoring using remote sensing technology
(2) land use change modelling
such as the development of System Dynamics Model and Multi-agent Model
(3) effects of land use change on ecosystem services
and (4) land use policies.
