Liang Geng studies how coastal wetlands—especially salt marshes and tidal flats—form and change over time, focusing on tidal channel networks, erosion, sediment movement, and the role of vegetation in shaping these landscapes. Much of the work uses field observations and computer models from coastal sites in China to understand processes like carbon loss from eroding marshes and how engineering and natural methods can be combined to prevent coastal erosion. Note: a couple of publications on unrelated computer-science topics (graph processing systems) also appear in this record, suggesting either a name overlap with another researcher or a secondary line of work.
