Research Interests
1. Relation of phytoplankton to the water quality and eutrophication
2. Active compounds and toxins of algae.
3. Long-term ecological study
4. Ecophysiology of algae.
5. Bioindicator of aquatic pollution and paleolimnology.
Lab Introduction
Ongoing projects:

¡´ Allelochemical and active compounds of freshwater algae, with particular emphasis on planktonic species.
¡´ Reconstruction of paleo-limnological environment based on the study of lake sediments, using diatoms as the indicators.
¡´ Long-term monitoring (since 1986) of phytoplankton and its relation to eutrophication and water quality in Feitsui Reservoir
¡´ Ecophysiological studies of harmful algae in the aquatic environment of Taiwan
¡´ Long-term ecological research at Yuanyang Lake, focusing on the characteristics of the acidic environment.
¡´ Control of eutrophication in the water reservoirs.
