معرفی
Hongjie Wang is an Assistant Professor of Oceanography at the Graduate School of Oceanography, University of Rhode Island. His research focuses on marine biogeochemical cycles, particularly the interplay between ocean acidification, hypoxia, and climate change in diverse ecosystems such as the Gulf of Mexico, Narragansett Bay, and the Pacific Arctic Region.
- Education: PhD in Coastal and Marine System Science (Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, 2018), MSc in Marine Chemistry (Xiamen University, 2013), BSc in Environmental Science (Ocean University of China, 2010)
His lab employs advanced autonomous instruments (DIC analyzer, SeapHOx pH sensors, SAMI-CO2 pCO₂ sensor) and biogeochemical modeling to study carbon dynamics, oxygen availability, and mitigation strategies like ocean alkalinity enhancement via coastal liming. Current projects include partnerships with local oyster farms to improve aquaculture practices and multi-institutional studies on marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) potential.
- Current Students: Abigail Baskin (PhD), Jacqueline Rosa (MS), Feras Kamhawi (PhD Candidate)
