Teng Wang | Fisheries | Best Researcher Award

Dr Teng  Wang |  Fisheries  |  Best Researcher Award

Guangzhou at  South China Sea Fisheries Research Institute,  China

Teng Wang is a Doctor of Fishery Ecology and Environment at the South China Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences in Guangzhou, China. His research focuses on the dynamics of coral reef fish communities, biodiversity, and conservation in the South China Sea, with particular emphasis on fish species composition, trophic diversity, and ecological changes in marine ecosystems.

Profile:

Educational Background:

Teng Wang earned his Doctorate in Fishery Ecology and Environment from the South China Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, in 2016.

Research Interests:

Teng Wang’s primary research interests lie in the ecology of coral reef fish communities, biodiversity conservation, and fish population dynamics. He has worked extensively on the dynamics of coral reef fish communities, particularly in the South China Sea. His studies include evaluating species composition, trophic diversity, and food web structures in various marine ecosystems, including the Xisha Islands and Daya Bay.

Research Contributions and Impact:

Teng Wang has made significant contributions to the understanding of marine biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics in the South China Sea. His work on mitogenome analyses of reef fish and the genetic diversity of species like the parrotfish has provided new insights into the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary patterns within these species.
