Resume

Meng Xu received her Ph. D. degree in physical geography from Chinese Academy of Science in 2015. After one-year experience as research assistant in Institute of Geodesy and Geophysics, Chinese Academy of Science, she joined South-Central Minzu University located at Wuhan and became a member of the college of Resources and Environment. Her current research interests mainly aim to study the pollutants adsorption and desorption onto sediments and the way how it affects the water environment.

Research Fields and Interests

1. the detection and evaluation of non-point pollutions

2. pollutants adsorption and desorption onto sediments

3. pollutants adsorbed by sediments in urban run-off
