Research Interests  

The primary emphasis in research of Dr. Fang is concentrated on soil biochemistry, especially on coupling of soil carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) cycles and environmental effects. He has worked in the following areas: (1) Linkage between C, N, and P transformations and related functional microbial communities under global change; (2) Mechanisms involved in the nonlinear responses of soil greenhouse gas fluxes to exogenous N and P inputs; (3) Short- and long-term effects of N and P enrichment on C sequestration and organic matter stability in soils.
