Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt
  • Subduction

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Zircon, Paleozoic, Paleontology and Petrology. Chao Yuan combines subjects such as Adakite, Magmatism and Pluton with his study of Geochemistry. The concepts of his Zircon study are interwoven with issues in Precambrian, Basalt, Igneous rock and Gneiss.

The Paleozoic study which covers Devonian that intersects with Ordovician and Fault. His work on Passive margin, Craton, Subduction and Island arc is typically connected to Population as part of general Paleontology study, connecting several disciplines of science. His research investigates the link between Petrology and topics such as Petrogenesis that cross with problems in Dike, Sanukitoid, Hornblende, Volcanic belt and Rodinia.

His most cited work include:

  • Middle Cambrian to Permian subduction-related accretionary orogenesis of Northern Xinjiang, NW China: Implications for the tectonic evolution of central Asia (661 citations)
  • End-Permian to mid-Triassic termination of the accretionary processes of the southern Altaids: implications for the geodynamic evolution, Phanerozoic continental growth, and metallogeny of Central Asia (642 citations)
  • A Tale of Amalgamation of Three Permo-Triassic Collage Systems in Central Asia: Oroclines, Sutures, and Terminal Accretion (512 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Chao Yuan mainly investigates Geochemistry, Zircon, Partial melting, Petrology and Paleozoic. His work carried out in the field of Geochemistry brings together such families of science as Subduction and Pluton. The study incorporates disciplines such as Crust, Magmatism, Geochronology, Precambrian and Terrane in addition to Zircon.

His Precambrian research incorporates elements of Basement and Craton. His Partial melting research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Adakite, Oceanic crust and Continental crust. Paleontology covers Chao Yuan research in Paleozoic.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (83.75%)
  • Zircon (51.25%)
  • Partial melting (28.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (83.75%)
  • Paleozoic (24.38%)
  • Zircon (51.25%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Chao Yuan focuses on Geochemistry, Paleozoic, Zircon, Paleontology and Mantle. While the research belongs to areas of Geochemistry, Chao Yuan spends his time largely on the problem of Subduction, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Devonian. His study explores the link between Paleozoic and topics such as Terrane that cross with problems in Shear zone, Sinistral and dextral and Island arc.

His work deals with themes such as Precambrian, Basement, Tectonics and Continental arc, which intersect with Zircon. His work on Convergent boundary as part of general Paleontology study is frequently connected to Block, Margin and China, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His studies in Partial melting integrate themes in fields like Trace element and Geochronology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Evolution of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt along the Siberian margin from Neoproterozoic-Early Paleozoic accretion to Devonian trench retreat and a comparison with Phanerozoic eastern Australia (17 citations)
  • Devonian to carboniferous tectonic evolution of the Kangguer Ocean in the Eastern Tianshan, NW China: Insights from three episodes of granitoids (16 citations)
  • Geochronology and geochemistry of Late Carboniferous dykes in the Aqishan–Yamansu belt, eastern Tianshan: Evidence for a post-collisional slab breakoff (13 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt
  • Subduction

His main research concerns Geochemistry, Subduction, Mantle, Zircon and Partial melting. His studies deal with areas such as Magmatism and Oceanic crust as well as Geochemistry. His research in Magmatism intersects with topics in Felsic, Igneous rock and Continental crust, Crust.

His Subduction study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Paleontology. Chao Yuan has included themes like Slab, Mantle wedge and Andesites in his Mantle study. His Zircon research incorporates themes from Basement, Group, Craton and Geochronology.
