Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Global warming

Liming Zhou mostly deals with Climatology, Vegetation, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, Climate change and Urbanization. His research integrates issues of Growing season, Global change and Precipitation in his study of Climatology. His Precipitation study deals with Land cover intersecting with Atmospheric temperature, Solar zenith angle and Spatial heterogeneity.

His Vegetation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Canopy, Tundra and Advanced very-high-resolution radiometer. His Climate change study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Albedo, Rainforest, Biodiversity and Amazon rainforest. Liming Zhou combines subjects such as Urban heat island, Physical geography and Seasonality with his study of Urbanization.

His most cited work include:

  • Variations in northern vegetation activity inferred from satellite data of vegetation index during 1981 to 1999 (1204 citations)
  • Evidence for a significant urbanization effect on climate in China (575 citations)
  • A large carbon sink in the woody biomass of Northern forests (559 citations)

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

Liming Zhou mainly investigates Climatology, Vegetation, Atmospheric sciences, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Precipitation. His work deals with themes such as Land cover, Climate change, Climate model and Leaf area index, which intersect with Climatology. The Vegetation study combines topics in areas such as Tundra, Solar zenith angle, Greening, Evapotranspiration and Radiometry.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Planetary boundary layer, Atmosphere, Emissivity and Greenhouse gas in addition to Atmospheric sciences. His Normalized Difference Vegetation Index research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Global change, Physical geography and Growing season. His Precipitation research focuses on subjects like Spatial heterogeneity, which are linked to Monsoon and Surface runoff.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (64.96%)
  • Vegetation (28.21%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (23.93%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Climatology (64.96%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (23.93%)
  • Precipitation (19.66%)

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

Liming Zhou focuses on Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation, Atmosphere and Vegetation. In general Climatology, his work in Forcing is often linked to Term linking many areas of study. His Atmospheric sciences research includes themes of Wind shear, Wind speed, Atmospheric instability and Longwave.

His Precipitation study combines topics in areas such as Madden–Julian oscillation, Composite analysis and Indian Ocean Dipole. Liming Zhou usually deals with Atmosphere and limits it to topics linked to Land cover and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index. His Vegetation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Wet season, Evapotranspiration, Physical geography, Dry season and Spatial heterogeneity.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Climate mitigation from vegetation biophysical feedbacks during the past three decades (115 citations)
  • Divergent hydrological response to large-scale afforestation and vegetation greening in China (81 citations)
  • Possible causes of the Central Equatorial African long-term drought (55 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Global warming

Liming Zhou mainly focuses on Climatology, Vegetation, Precipitation, Atmospheric sciences and Term. His work on Forcing as part of general Climatology research is often related to Reference data, thus linking different fields of science. Liming Zhou focuses mostly in the field of Vegetation, narrowing it down to matters related to Evapotranspiration and, in some cases, Boreal, Albedo, Leaf area index, Global cooling and Atmospheric circulation.

Liming Zhou has researched Precipitation in several fields, including Wet season, Soil water, Amazon rainforest, Water balance and Physical geography. His Atmospheric sciences study incorporates themes from Planetary boundary layer, Wind power and Radiative forcing. His Greening research incorporates elements of Land cover, Enhanced vegetation index, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index.
