Zhengyu Xia

For my postdoc, my research interests include using models and data of stable isotopes to quantify (1) the evapotranspiration fluxes in the atmospheric water cycle and (2) the influence of hydrological processes on weathering fluxes in terrestrial systems. During my PhD study at Lehigh University, my research mainly focused on developing paleoclimate records from peat deposits in southern Patagonia to understand the variability of the Southern Hemisphere Westerly Winds.
