Wendy Yang is a Professor at the University of Illinois in the School of Integrative Biology. Her research focuses on terrestrial biogeochemistry and ecosystem ecology, with a particular interest in the effects of human activities on natural and managed ecosystems. Her work explores the interplay between biogeochemical cycles, particularly carbon and nitrogen, and how these are influenced by climate change and anthropogenic inputs. Yang applies novel methodological approaches, including stable isotope techniques, to quantify greenhouse gas emissions and chemical transformations in the environment. Her research program addresses significant themes such as the controls on redox-sensitive biogeochemical processes, plant community composition effects, and various projects aimed at understanding soil and ecosystem dynamics in the context of sustainable agriculture and environmental change.
