Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Ecology
  • Erosion

Shiming Wan mainly focuses on Oceanography, East Asian Monsoon, Sediment, Monsoon and Provenance. His Oceanography research integrates issues from Siliciclastic and Weathering. His East Asian Monsoon research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Drainage basin and Illite.

His studies deal with areas such as Deep sea and Erosion as well as Sediment. His Monsoon research focuses on subjects like Holocene, which are linked to Sea level. Shiming Wan has researched Provenance in several fields, including Continental shelf and Geomorphology.

His most cited work include:

  • Development of the East Asian monsoon: Mineralogical and sedimentologic records in the northern South China Sea since 20 Ma (256 citations)
  • Reconstructing chemical weathering, physical erosion and monsoon intensity since 25 Ma in the northern South China Sea: A review of competing proxies (207 citations)
  • Yangtze- and Taiwan-derived sediments on the inner shelf of East China Sea (176 citations)

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

Shiming Wan mostly deals with Oceanography, Sediment, Provenance, Geochemistry and Holocene. His study in Oceanography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Glacial period and Weathering. His studies in Provenance integrate themes in fields like Sedimentary rock, Trough, Fluvial and Siliciclastic.

His work on Clay minerals is typically connected to Delta as part of general Geochemistry study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Holocene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Climatology, Physical geography and Sedimentation. Shiming Wan interconnects Drainage basin and Illite in the investigation of issues within East Asian Monsoon.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (56.78%)
  • Sediment (33.05%)
  • Provenance (35.59%)

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

  • Global cooling (16.95%)
  • Carbon cycle (8.47%)
  • Earth science (11.02%)

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

Shiming Wan spends much of his time researching Global cooling, Carbon cycle, Earth science, Climate change and Provenance. His work carried out in the field of Global cooling brings together such families of science as Late Miocene and Paleontology. Carbon cycle is integrated with Asian Dust, Aeolian processes, Oceanography and Sea level in his research.

Oceanography and Biogeochemical cycle are frequently intertwined in his study. He combines subjects such as Westerlies, Sediment trap, Particulates and Siliciclastic with his study of Provenance. His work in Cenozoic addresses issues such as East Asian Monsoon, which are connected to fields such as Holocene.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Human impact overwhelms long-term climate control of fire in the Yangtze River Basin since 3.0 ka BP (5 citations)
  • Human impact overwhelms long-term climate control of fire in the Yangtze River Basin since 3.0 ka BP (5 citations)
  • Climate‐Driven Weathering Shifts Between Highlands and Floodplains (4 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Ecology
  • Paleontology

His primary scientific interests are in Carbon cycle, Oceanography, Holocene, Continental shelf and Ice sheet. Carbon cycle combines with fields such as Floodplain, Earth science, Climate change and Weathering in his work. His studies in China sea and East Asian Monsoon are all subfields of Oceanography research.

The Holocene study combines topics in areas such as Structural basin, Anthropocene and Physical geography. His research integrates issues of Yangtze river and Fire history in his study of Continental shelf. His biological study deals with issues like Sea level, which deal with fields such as Global cooling.
