Dr. Liu 's primary research and teaching interests are in the general fields of dynamic simulation of forest resources. Her research activities include: modeling and forecasting stand growth dynamics and stand succession law and environmental change characteristic by canopy gap disturbance at the scale of standard ground investigation. After her PhD research, her focus shifted to landscape ecology and sustainable land use using the "3S" technology. Currently, her research activities include: land use change, land-use driving factor analysis, and land pattern characteristics and ecosystem service function.
