Research Group for Ecological Restoration & Biodiversity Conservation for Mountain Ecosystems

Update time: 08/21/2009

Mountains including plateaus cover about 70% areas of terrestrial China and foster a ratio of about 45% peoples for China populations, therefore it is central to the national sustainable development. Mountains, as fragile ecosystems with unique biodiversity and natural resources, need to careful exploit and wise use on various resources in order to guaranteeing ecological safety, sustaining biodiversity and promoting people’s livelihoods. But during recent several decades, anthropogenic activities and global climate change have dramatic influences on the stability of fragile mountain ecosystems, biodiversity development, and the livelihoods of mountain people. Nowadays ecological damage and biodiversity decline are seriously challenging mountain sustainable development nowadays. Currently an arduous assignment for mountain region development is pressing to promote ecological restoration and meanwhile to conserve and manage biodiversity as a natural heritage, and a resource for livelihoods and ecological resilience.

The group works mainly for the eastern Tibetan Plateau and the upper reaches of Yangtze River, the Mountains of Southwest China, which is one of the famous biodiversity hotspots and indispensable ecological safeguard barrier regions for downstream regional development. They focus researches on ecological restoration and biodiversity conservation. Overall, The objectives of their works are to explore effects of anthropogenic activities including traditional management practices and mechanism of mountain vegetation degradation and restoration, to search scientific and technological solutions in the ecological restoration and biodiversity conservation of the unique mountain ecosystems, ultimately to facilitate the development of appropriate policies and technologies and increase our scientific and technological knowledge for the unique mountain ecosystems.

After graduated from Southwestern Forestry University and obtained his bachelor degree in Foresty in June 1989, Prof. Bao entered Central Southern Forestry University and earned a master degree in Forest Ecology in June 1992. Since July 1992, he has been working in Ecological center of the Chengdu Institute of Biology (CIB), the Chinese Academy Sciences (CAS). He received his doctoral degree from the Institute of Geographical Sciences and Natural Resources Research in Forest Ecology, the Chinese Academy Sciences in April 1999. Currently he is a research professor in CIB and the director of Maoxian Mountain Ecosystem Research Station of the CAS. He also serves as an active member of China Society on Tibetan Plateau (CSTP) and as a depute general-secretary of Botanical Society of Sichuan.

Dr. Bao has been focused his research on ecological restoration and plant biodiversity conservation for mountain ecosystems, especially in eastern Tibetan Plateau and the upper reaches of Yangtze River. He publishes over 150 peer-reviewed publications in both national and international Journals and is a co-author of five books. 

 

Ms. Fanglan Li graduated from College of Life Science of Northwest Normal University and obtained B.S. degree in Biology in June 2002 and then got Ph.D degree in Botany in School of graduate, the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Currently she works as an assistant Professor in the key laboratory of ecological Restoration, Chengdu Institute of Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Her research interests is in functional botany, including plant functional adaptation from the dry valley of eastern Tibetan Plateau, biological fixation of some leguminous plants native to the dry valley under drought stress and ecological restoration of the dry valley ecosystem. Dr. Li implements two research projects: the capacity of biological fixation of leguminous plants in response to drought stress (2008-2010) and the eco-physiological mechanism of drought limitation on the biological fixation activity of legumes (2009-2010). Ms. Li publishes over 20 publications in peer-reviewed Journals
