Qiuxiang Tian – new visiting researcher

Portrait of Qiuxiang Tian. Photo.

Hi! My name is Qiuxiang Tian, and I am a new visiting researcher in the Functional Ecology division in the lab of Professor Johannes Rousk. I will study at this university for one year.

My research is mainly focused on forest soil carbon cycling, and I am familiar with the determination of SOC fractions and SOC components. I have done some research on how topography (including slope position, slope degree, and also elevation) affects soil carbon accumulation. I also work on how exogenous carbon input influences soil old carbon mineralisation (known as priming effect) and new carbon sequestration using stable isotope tracing techniques. Currently, my research involves studying the impact of mycorrhizal type on forest carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus cycling in AM- and EcM-trees co-existed forests.

I love learning and trying out new things. I am also interested in the culture around the world. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, take photos and get to know the local plants.

So, if you want to chat about Chinese culture, or feel like discussing science, soil, or anything else, feel free to drop by my office. I look forward to getting to know many of you!
