Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography
  • Climate change

His primary areas of investigation include Climatology, Monsoon, Speleothem, Oceanography and Stalagmite. The study incorporates disciplines such as Isotopes of oxygen and Intertropical Convergence Zone, Precipitation in addition to Climatology. His research in Monsoon is mostly focused on East Asian Monsoon.

His work carried out in the field of Speleothem brings together such families of science as Subtropics, Paleontology, δ18O, Indian summer monsoon and Atmospheric circulation. In his work, Quaternary is strongly intertwined with Paleoclimatology, which is a subfield of Stalagmite. His Glacial period study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Climate change, Physical geography and Northern Hemisphere.

His most cited work include:

  • IntCal13 and Marine13 radiocarbon age calibration curves 0-50,000 years cal BP (11727 citations)
  • A High-Resolution Absolute-Dated Late Pleistocene Monsoon Record from Hulu Cave, China (2196 citations)
  • The holocene Asian monsoon : links to solar changes and North Atlantic climate (1660 citations)

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

His main research concerns Stalagmite, Climatology, Speleothem, Cave and Monsoon. His study in Stalagmite is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Glacial period, δ18O, Paleoclimatology and Physical geography. His Climatology research incorporates elements of Climate change and Precipitation.

His work in Speleothem addresses subjects such as Ice core, which are connected to disciplines such as Chronology. The Cave study combines topics in areas such as Geochemistry, Paleontology, Period and Calcite. His Monsoon research entails a greater understanding of Oceanography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stalagmite (62.71%)
  • Climatology (64.38%)
  • Speleothem (61.15%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Physical geography (36.04%)
  • Speleothem (61.15%)
  • Stalagmite (62.71%)

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

Hai Cheng spends much of his time researching Physical geography, Speleothem, Stalagmite, Climatology and δ18O. His Physical geography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Glacial period, Last Glacial Maximum, Extinction, Cave and China. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Deglaciation, Monsoon, Proxy and Isotopes of oxygen.

Hai Cheng works on Monsoon which deals in particular with East Asian Monsoon. He works mostly in the field of Stalagmite, limiting it down to topics relating to Climate change and, in certain cases, Megafauna. Hai Cheng interconnects Paleoclimatology, δ13C, Precipitation, Interglacial and Atmospheric circulation in the investigation of issues within δ18O.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • THE INTCAL20 NORTHERN HEMISPHERE RADIOCARBON AGE CALIBRATION CURVE (0–55 CAL kBP) (332 citations)
  • THE INTCAL20 NORTHERN HEMISPHERE RADIOCARBON AGE CALIBRATION CURVE (0–55 CAL kBP) (332 citations)
  • Coupling of Indo-Pacific climate variability over the last millennium (32 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Climate change

Hai Cheng mostly deals with Climatology, Holocene, Speleothem, Monsoon and Physical geography. Hai Cheng has included themes like Global warming and Radiative forcing in his Climatology study. Hai Cheng studies Holocene, namely Stalagmite.

His Speleothem research incorporates themes from East Asian Monsoon, Glacial period, Tropics and Isotopes of oxygen. His research on Monsoon often connects related areas such as Interglacial. His studies deal with areas such as δ18O, Cave, Karst, Bedrock and Erosion as well as Physical geography.
