- MS in Ecology, Chinese Academy of Sciences
- BS in Resources and Environmental Science, China Agricultural University
Dr. Cao's research focuses on global agricultural sustainability, examining interactions between livestock systems, nutrient cycling, and climate change mitigation. He develops integrated platforms combining data science, environmental models, and remote sensing to address challenges like food security, land degradation, and biodiversity loss.
Key research trends include historical nutrient budget analysis (1850–present), high-resolution crop mapping, and livestock sector sustainability. He has published extensively on nitrogen/phosphorus cycles, GHG emissions, and agricultural data synthesis. Current projects involve analyzing cross-country dietary diversity and biochar-soil interactions.
Located at 102 Bruckner Hall, Ithaca, NY, Dr. Cao collaborates with Food Systems & Global Change researchers and contributes to Cornell's Global Development initiatives. His work leverages interdisciplinary methods to connect agricultural policies with environmental outcomes.
