Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Geochemistry, Cretaceous, Ophiolite and Forearc. His study in Cenozoic, Paleogene, Terrane, Phanerozoic and Tectonics is done as part of Paleontology. His studies in Tectonics integrate themes in fields like Sedimentary rock and Structural basin.

Partial melting, Geochronology and Basalt are the subjects of his Geochemistry studies. His work investigates the relationship between Cretaceous and topics such as Facies that intersect with problems in Flysch, Provenance and Aptian. His Forearc research includes elements of Stage, Climate change, Global climate and Craton.

His most cited work include:

  • Outward-growth of the Tibetan Plateau during the Cenozoic: A review ☆ (259 citations)
  • The Indus–Yarlung Zangbo ophiolites from Nanga Parbat to Namche Barwa syntaxes, southern Tibet: First synthesis of petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology with incidences on geodynamic reconstructions of Neo-Tethys (259 citations)
  • Petrology and geochemistry of peridotites in the Zhongba ophiolite, Yarlung Zangbo Suture Zone: Implications for the Early Cretaceous intra-oceanic subduction zone within the Neo-Tethys (119 citations)

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

Chengshan Wang mainly focuses on Paleontology, Cretaceous, Geochemistry, Structural basin and Zircon. His works in Sedimentary rock, Tectonics, Paleomagnetism, Sedimentary depositional environment and Paleogene are all subjects of inquiry into Paleontology. His study looks at the relationship between Tectonics and fields such as Crust, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Chengshan Wang works mostly in the field of Cretaceous, limiting it down to topics relating to Cyclostratigraphy and, in certain cases, Stage and Milankovitch cycles. His Geochemistry research includes themes of Ophiolite and Subduction, Suture. The study incorporates disciplines such as Pluton, Provenance, Volcanic rock and Geochronology in addition to Zircon.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (56.41%)
  • Cretaceous (39.74%)
  • Geochemistry (29.49%)

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

  • Paleontology (56.41%)
  • Cretaceous (39.74%)
  • Structural basin (21.15%)

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

Paleontology, Cretaceous, Structural basin, Geochemistry and Subduction are his primary areas of study. His work deals with themes such as Biostratigraphy and Cyclostratigraphy, which intersect with Cretaceous. His research in Structural basin intersects with topics in Sedimentary rock, Carbon sink and Paleozoic.

His Sedimentary rock study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cenozoic, Rift and Paleoclimatology. His work in the fields of Geochemistry, such as Zircon, Breccia and Ordovician, overlaps with other areas such as Thesaurus. His Subduction study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Foreland basin, Ophiolite and Lithosphere.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Provenance and tectonic setting of Upper Triassic turbidites in the eastern Tethyan Himalaya: Implications for early-stage evolution of the Neo–Tethys (11 citations)
  • Mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of K-bentonites from the Late Ordovician to the Early Silurian in South China and their geological significance (11 citations)
  • Internal Drainage Has Sustained Low‐Relief Tibetan Landscapes Since the Early Miocene (9 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Structural basin, Cretaceous, Geochemistry and Paleoclimatology. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Drainage and Paleontology. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Structural basin, Source rock, Paleozoic, Sedimentary depositional environment, Milankovitch cycles and Permian is strongly linked to Sedimentary rock.

The concepts of his Cretaceous study are interwoven with issues in Marl and Sequence. The Zircon and Ordovician research Chengshan Wang does as part of his general Geochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as South china and Thesaurus, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Chengshan Wang has included themes like Outcrop, Marine transgression, Geochronology, Lithostratigraphy and Chronology in his Zircon study.
