Yao Liu is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography and Environmental Sciences at Northumbria University. Her research investigates ecological memory mechanisms in terrestrial ecosystems, focusing on how past environmental conditions influence current ecological processes.
Research examines photosynthesis in fluctuating environments, tree growth responses to climate variability, and carbon flux dynamics in forests. Combines chlorophyll fluorescence monitoring, manipulative experiments, and Bayesian modeling approaches across multiple temporal scales.
Publications demonstrate how climate legacies influence forest resilience through physiological memory mechanisms. Recent work reveals how non-structural carbohydrates mediate drought recovery in foundation tree species.
