Personal Details : 

Research Interests:
Present interests focus on the evolutionary response of some marine organisms (e.g. fishes‚ crabs,  shrimps, phytoplankton and zooplankton) to fluctuating palaeo-climatic and oceanographic conditions  including the following fields:
1. Demographic history and genetic population structure of some coastal species in the marginal seas of West Pacific;
2. Dispersal  origin and colonization pathway  of  some widely distributed species in the Indo-West Pacific;
3. Changing species composition of phytoplankton and zooplankton through time in the sedimental cores.
