Curriculum Vitae :

• Prof. Shi is the recipient of the National Natural Science Outstanding Young Fund (2020). Over the years, he has been devoted to the research in environmental soil science and has published more than 60 SCI papers in Environmental Science & Technology, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta and other journals. Currently, he is an associate editor of Applied Geochemistry and an editorial board member of ACS Earth & Space Chemistry. He is also the deputy director of the Soil Chemistry Committee of the Soil Society of China and the director of the Youth Working Committee of Guangdong Soil Society.

Field of research

• In response to the major scientific needs of China in soil pollution control and soil health, the team is currently focusing on the following two areas of research: (1) kinetic mechanisms and quantitative prediction of coupled multi-scale and multi-process reactions in soils; (2) predictive models of spatial and temporal changes in soil pollution patterns and biogeochemical cycles of elements

Recent research projects

• He has undertaken projects such as the National Outstanding Young Scientists Fund, the Key R&D Special Project of the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the National Natural Science Foundation of China.
