Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Terrane, Geochemistry, Plateau and Zircon. Paleontology is represented through her Paleo-Tethys Ocean, Subduction and Foreland basin research. Her Terrane research includes elements of Crust, Cretaceous, Bangong suture, Suture and Continental collision.

Her Crust research incorporates themes from Seismology and Mantle. Her Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Late Miocene, Shear zone, Lithosphere and Petrology. Her study in Zircon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Provenance and Craton.

Her most cited work include:

  • Geological records of the Lhasa-Qiangtang and Indo-Asian collisions in the Nima area of central Tibet (555 citations)
  • Cretaceous-Tertiary shortening, basin development, and volcanism in central Tibet (521 citations)
  • Paleocene–Eocene record of ophiolite obduction and initial India‐Asia collision, south central Tibet (455 citations)

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

Lin Ding focuses on Paleontology, Geochemistry, Terrane, Zircon and Plateau. Her Cretaceous, Suture, Paleomagnetism, Provenance and Foreland basin study are her primary interests in Paleontology. Her Cretaceous research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sedimentary rock and Continental collision.

The various areas that Lin Ding examines in her Geochemistry study include Subduction and Ophiolite. Her Terrane research focuses on Crust and how it connects with Lithosphere. Her studies in Zircon integrate themes in fields like Felsic, Mesozoic, Partial melting and Geochronology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (48.19%)
  • Geochemistry (38.15%)
  • Terrane (28.92%)

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

  • Geochemistry (38.15%)
  • Paleontology (48.19%)
  • Terrane (28.92%)

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

Lin Ding mainly investigates Geochemistry, Paleontology, Terrane, Zircon and Cretaceous. Her Geochemistry research integrates issues from Subduction and Hydrothermal circulation. Lin Ding integrates Paleontology and Plateau in her studies.

Lin Ding has included themes like Structural basin, Stage, Conodont, Lithosphere and Igneous differentiation in her Terrane study. Her work deals with themes such as Fractional crystallization, Felsic, Mafic, Partial melting and Geochronology, which intersect with Zircon. Her work carried out in the field of Cretaceous brings together such families of science as Aridification, Provenance and Evaporite.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Birth and demise of the Bangong-Nujiang Tethyan Ocean: A review from the Gerze area of central Tibet (26 citations)
  • Mesozoic-Cenozoic evolution of the Eastern Kunlun Range, central Tibet, and implications for basin evolution during the Indo-Asian collision (25 citations)
  • Tectonics of the Eastern Kunlun Range: Cenozoic Reactivation of a Paleozoic-Early Mesozoic Orogen (25 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Plate tectonics

Lin Ding mainly focuses on Paleontology, Subduction, Terrane, Geochemistry and Felsic. Lin Ding combines Paleontology and Plateau in her research. The Subduction study combines topics in areas such as Ophiolite and Seismic wave.

She interconnects Ice age, Tournaisian and Fauna, Conodont in the investigation of issues within Terrane. The study incorporates disciplines such as Foraminifera, Benthic zone, Permafrost and Methane in addition to Geochemistry. As a part of the same scientific family, Lin Ding mostly works in the field of Felsic, focusing on Zircon and, on occasion, Fractional crystallization, Continental arc, Geochronology, Igneous differentiation and Crust.
