Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Ecology
  • Paleontology

Sedimentary rock, Monsoon, Paleoclimatology, Paleontology and Plateau are his primary areas of study. His Sedimentary rock study combines topics in areas such as Period, Agriculture, Deforestation, Phytolith and Urbanization. The Monsoon study combines topics in areas such as Geochemistry and Holocene.

He has researched Holocene in several fields, including Continental shelf, Greigite, Magnetite, Diagenesis and Hematite. Hongbo Zheng regularly ties together related areas like Geomorphology in his Paleoclimatology studies. Paleontology is closely attributed to Aridification in his study.

His most cited work include:

  • Decoupled warming and monsoon precipitation in East Asia over the last deglaciation (157 citations)
  • Pre-Miocene birth of the Yangtze River (152 citations)
  • Late Quaternary aeolian dust input variability on the Chinese Loess Plateau: inferences from unmixing of loess grain-size records (144 citations)

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

His main research concerns Geochemistry, Provenance, Holocene, Paleontology and Monsoon. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Drainage basin and Structural basin, Sediment, Geomorphology. Hongbo Zheng has included themes like Sediment transport, Aeolian processes, Source rock, Particulates and Quartz in his Provenance study.

His Holocene research includes elements of Glacial period, Physical geography, Ecology and Precipitation. His work deals with themes such as Continental shelf and Climate change, Paleoclimatology, which intersect with Monsoon. His Sedimentary rock research incorporates elements of Foreland basin and Plateau.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (31.54%)
  • Provenance (25.38%)
  • Holocene (23.08%)

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

  • Geochemistry (31.54%)
  • Structural basin (16.92%)
  • Core (6.15%)

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

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Structural basin, Core, Yangtze river and China. His Geochemistry study focuses mostly on Provenance and Phenocryst. His studies in Provenance integrate themes in fields like Particulates, Quartz, Erosion and Zircon.

His Structural basin study is related to the wider topic of Paleontology. His studies deal with areas such as Sedimentary rock, Physical geography, Sw china and Paleogene as well as Yangtze river. Holocene is closely connected to Slash-and-burn in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Physical geography.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A Late Eocene‐Oligocene Through‐Flowing River Between the Upper Yangtze and South China Sea (8 citations)
  • Formation of the First Bend in the late Eocene gave birth to the modern Yangtze River, China (6 citations)
  • Formation of the First Bend in the late Eocene gave birth to the modern Yangtze River, China (6 citations)
