Personal profile

Research overview

My research interests lie in exploring ecology and physical geography by GIScience approaches.

It remains a question that how birds find their target and directions when flying across oceans in search of breeding and wintering islands in a featureless environment, and how they migrate thousands of kilometres each year. My current research looks into the navigation mechanisms of pelagic birds, particularly their olfactory hypothesis, by remote sensing techniques, animal movement data and GIS development. This study will also utilise experience and data from fieldwork.
