Brief Description
Prof. Dr. Yi HUANG is a Full Professor in the College of Environmental Sciences and Engineering, Peking University, China.
Holds a Doctor of Science (major in Environmental Ecology, Germany), Prof. Yi HUANG has experience in teaching and researching in China, Germany, Canada and Australia. Her current research focuses on function of soil microbial to shape and maintain terrestrial biodiversity and ecosystem service, as well as bioaugmentation technology of degraded ecosystem rehabilitation.
She has been leading quite a few national and international research projects. Supported by National Scientific Foundation of China, a project on ectomycorrhizal association improve tolerance of host plan to excessive heavy metals in soil have been carrying out for years in lab of Prof. Yi Huang. Currently she is leading two national key projects (2016-2020) on microbials in semi-arid land in northern and in Tibet China. The projects emphases on function of microbial on improving soil aggregation and stability, and plant biodiversity under drought and high-altitude extreme habitat. Basic on those research, Prof. Yi Huang published more than 100 scientific papers.
Meanwhile, Prof. Yi HUANG is very active at international cooperation. She is a Coordinator of Collaborating Center of China for Global Environment Outlook (GEO) and is the Leading Author of Asia Chapter of GEO 4 and Coordinating Leading Author of Water Chapter of GEO5 and co-chare of high level consultation panel of GEO6. She is the leading scientist for UNEP Project on Vulnerability Assessment of Freshwater Resources to Environmental Change in Asia, and leading author of Methodological Guidelines of the project and report entitled Freshwater Under Threat – North East Asia. Because of her deeply involved into Convention for Biological Diversity (CBD), She is selected to be one of member of multidisciplinary scientific panel (MEP) in IPBES (International Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Service) under UN.
