Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Climate change

Huayu Lu mostly deals with Loess, Climatology, East Asian Monsoon, Physical geography and Aeolian processes. The various areas that Huayu Lu examines in his Loess study include Loess plateau and Pedogenesis. His studies deal with areas such as East asian summer monsoon, Climate change and Holocene as well as Climatology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Tropical monsoon climate and Diagenesis. As a part of the same scientific study, Huayu Lu usually deals with the Physical geography, concentrating on Glacial period and frequently concerns with Oceanography. His Aeolian processes research incorporates elements of Weathering, Silt, Quaternary and Ice sheet.

His most cited work include:

  • Chinese cave records and the East Asia Summer Monsoon (293 citations)
  • Nd and Sr isotopic characteristics of Chinese deserts: Implications for the provenances of Asian dust (283 citations)
  • Bimodal grain-size distribution of Chinese loess, and its palaeoclimatic implications (189 citations)

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

Huayu Lu mainly investigates Loess, Physical geography, Geomorphology, Monsoon and Climatology. His Loess study combines topics in areas such as Geochemistry, Glacial period, Aeolian processes and Quaternary. His studies deal with areas such as Loess plateau, Plateau, Last Glacial Maximum and China as well as Physical geography.

Huayu Lu studies Monsoon, namely East Asian Monsoon. Holocene is closely connected to Climate change in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of East Asian Monsoon. While the research belongs to areas of Climatology, Huayu Lu spends his time largely on the problem of Dendrochronology, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Chronology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Loess (55.73%)
  • Physical geography (29.39%)
  • Geomorphology (26.34%)

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

  • Physical geography (29.39%)
  • East Asian Monsoon (21.76%)
  • Monsoon (24.05%)

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

Physical geography, East Asian Monsoon, Monsoon, Loess and Climatology are his primary areas of study. His Physical geography research integrates issues from Aggradation, Sediment, Fluvial terrace, Plateau and Erosion. In Monsoon, Huayu Lu works on issues like Structural basin, which are connected to Central china.

Huayu Lu has researched Loess in several fields, including Geochemistry, Aeolian processes and Quaternary, Interglacial. His research integrates issues of Glacial period and Arable land in his study of Aeolian processes. The study incorporates disciplines such as Arid, Dendrochronology and Climate change, Paleoclimatology in addition to Climatology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Variability of East Asian summer monsoon precipitation during the Holocene and possible forcing mechanisms (46 citations)
  • Formation and evolution of Gobi Desert in central and eastern Asia (25 citations)
  • The interplay between climate and tectonics during the upward and outward growth of the Qilian Shan orogenic wedge, northern Tibetan Plateau (21 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Erosion

Huayu Lu mainly focuses on Physical geography, Aeolian processes, Holocene, Paleontology and Late Miocene. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Glacial period, Floodplain, Sediment and Fluvial. His Aeolian processes research includes themes of China, Erosion and Seasonality.

His studies in Holocene integrate themes in fields like East asian summer monsoon, Climatology and Inner mongolia. His study in Late Miocene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both East Asian Monsoon, Monsoon, Aridification, Global cooling and Plateau. In his study, Loess is strongly linked to Interglacial, which falls under the umbrella field of Transition zone.
