Remembering my grand-father's stories about Polynesian reefs, I took on the adventure of discovering
coral reefs ecology during my second year of master degree & could not consider another path for myself ever since.

I have an interest on both modern & paleo-reefs as past ecosystems can hold crucial informations for scientists to understand better reef ecosystems & predict their future in the ongoing changing era.
However, the reciproque is also true. It is important to have a good knowledge of reef's functioning using today's reefs in order to understand past-reefs functioning & their trajectories through geological periods.
I have a keen interest in both modern & paleo-reefs, as past ecosystems can provide valuable information for scientists striving to better understand reef ecosystems & predict their future in the ongoing changing era.
Conversely, understanding present-day reef functioning is equally essential for deciphering the dynamics of past reefs & their evolution across geological periods

To date [07/2023], we performed field investigations in 101 locations, using transect and photo-quadrat methods. Our survey includes numerous remote islets
such as Penjiayu (彭佳嶼), Mianhuayu (棉花嶼), Huapingyu (花瓶嶼), Turtle Island (龜山島), Ludao (綠島), Lanyu (蘭嶼), Xiaoliuqiu (小琉球), Penghu archipelago (澎湖) as well as remote sites such as Qixingyan (七星岩). <br>

In Taiwan, numerous governing agencies are implementing various types of MPAs without necessarly consulting each other in their establishment or management. This can occasionally lead to complex overlap between MPAs &/or managing agencies
(<i>see maps below</i>). Such situations are unlikely to provided better or more efficient ecosystems management,
highlighting the necessity for a countrywide evaluation of the different types of MPAs existing in Taiwan and a better consultation between the various governing agencies involved in both MPAs implementation and management.
