Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction
  • Sedimentary rock

His primary areas of investigation include Craton, Geochemistry, Metamorphism, Petrology and Zircon. His Craton study incorporates themes from Rift and Terrane. His study looks at the relationship between Geochemistry and fields such as Basement, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

The various areas that Sanzhong Li examines in his Metamorphism study include Lineation, Eclogite, Granulite and Metamorphic facies. His biological study deals with issues like Igneous rock, which deal with fields such as Block, Pluton, Group and Mesozoic. His Paleontology research focuses on Geomorphology and how it connects with Baltica, Laurentia and Accretion.

His most cited work include:

  • A Paleo-Mesoproterozoic supercontinent: assembly, growth and breakup (873 citations)
  • Amalgamation of the North China Craton: Key issues and discussion (542 citations)
  • SHRIMP U–Pb zircon geochronology of the Liaoji granitoids: Constraints on the evolution of the Paleoproterozoic Jiao-Liao-Ji belt in the Eastern Block of the North China Craton (324 citations)

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

His main research concerns Paleontology, Geochemistry, Subduction, Tectonics and Seismology. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Paleontology, Paleozoic is strongly linked to Geomorphology. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Petrology and Craton.

Sanzhong Li has included themes like Basement and Archean in his Craton study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Crust, Mantle and Terrane. In his work, Mafic is strongly intertwined with Granulite, which is a subfield of Metamorphism.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (50.00%)
  • Geochemistry (46.06%)
  • Subduction (50.00%)

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

  • Subduction (50.00%)
  • Paleontology (50.00%)
  • Tectonics (43.64%)

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

Sanzhong Li spends much of his time researching Subduction, Paleontology, Tectonics, Geochemistry and Zircon. His Subduction research incorporates elements of Terrane, Mantle and Continental margin. His work in Paleontology addresses subjects such as Bouguer anomaly, which are connected to disciplines such as Magnetic anomaly.

His research in Tectonics intersects with topics in Sedimentary rock and Structural basin. His work carried out in the field of Geochemistry brings together such families of science as Craton, Magmatism and Underplating. In his research, Deformation and Archean is intimately related to Basement, which falls under the overarching field of Craton.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Slab Rollback Versus Delamination: Contrasting Fates of Flat‐Slab Subduction and Implications for South China Evolution in the Mesozoic (11 citations)
  • Plate tectonic control on the formation and tectonic migration of Cenozoic basins in northern margin of the South China Sea (8 citations)
  • Early Jurassic and Late Cretaceous granites in the Tongka micro-block, Central Tibet: Implications for the evolution of the Bangong-Nujiang ocean (8 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction
  • Sedimentary rock

Sanzhong Li focuses on Subduction, Paleontology, Geochemistry, Tectonics and Zircon. Sanzhong Li combines subjects such as Transition zone, Igneous rock, Mantle and Terrane with his study of Subduction. His work in the fields of Paleontology, such as Continental margin, Lithosphere and Ridge, overlaps with other areas such as Collision.

His research integrates issues of Sedimentary depositional environment and Craton, Paleoarchean in his study of Geochemistry. His Craton research focuses on subjects like Basement, which are linked to Ultramafic rock and Granulite. His Tectonics research includes elements of Gravity anomaly and Magma.
