Area
Prof. Feng’s research focus centers on elucidating the spatiotemporal dynamics and interactive feedback mechanisms within complex urban-rural continuum ecosystems. The research themes encompass urban green space and microclimatic wind dynamics, climate-responsive urban planning and design for ecosystem resilience, sustainable stormwater management systems and nature-based solutions, soil-ecological interactions within urban green spaces, vegetation selection for air quality enhancement and human health benefits, climate-adaptive vegetation dynamics, and, and integrated approaches to sustainable, resilient urban-rural ecosystems through holistic landscape ecological planning.
