Yiqi Luo is a Liberty Hyde Bailey Professor at Cornell University. He is ecosystem ecologist/biogeochemist.

Research
The overall goal of the research in his lab is to advance predictive understanding of biogeochemical cycles of terrestrial ecosystems under the global change. Key scientific questions to be addressed include: (1) how global change alters biogeochemistry of terrestrial ecosystems and what is the underlying mechanism for such alterations, and (2) how the changes in biogeochemistry of terrestrial ecosystems feedback to global change. These scientific questions are addressed by integrating data with ecosystem models. The main approaches include process-based modeling, data synthesis, data-model fusion via data assimilation and machine learning, and theoretical analysis.

His lab developed the DYNAMIC DISEQUILIBRIUM framework to assess future land carbon sink dynamics, the MATRIX APRROACH to unify land carbon cycle models, and the TRACEABILTY framework to diagnose the uncertainty in model predictions of land carbon cycle.
