What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Climate change
- Sedimentary rock
Tungsheng Liu mostly deals with Loess, Aeolian processes, Climatology, Monsoon and Paleontology.
Loess is a subfield of Geomorphology that Tungsheng Liu studies.
In his study, Dust storm, Deposition and Pelagic sediment is inextricably linked to Westerlies, which falls within the broad field of Aeolian processes.
His Climatology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glacial period and Quaternary.
His work in Monsoon tackles topics such as Paleosol which are related to areas like Granulometry, Physical geography and Weathering.
The Paleontology study combines topics in areas such as Geochemistry and Pedogenesis.
His most cited work include:
- Onset of Asian desertification by 22 Myr ago inferred from loess deposits in China (1184 citations)
- Loess and the environment (1001 citations)
- Spatial and temporal characteristics of dust storms in China and its surrounding regions, 1960-1999 : Relations to source area and climate (621 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Loess, Climatology, Paleontology, Monsoon and Aeolian processes.
His research in Loess intersects with topics in Loess plateau, Glacial period and Geochemistry.
His work in Climatology covers topics such as Stalagmite which are related to areas like Younger Dryas.
As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Paleontology, concentrating on Plateau and frequently concerns with Tectonics.
His work deals with themes such as Pleistocene, Paleoclimatology, Physical geography and Holocene, which intersect with Monsoon.
His Aeolian processes research focuses on Westerlies and how it connects with Aridification.
He most often published in these fields:
- Loess (48.00%)
- Climatology (28.00%)
- Paleontology (25.33%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2010)?
- Oceanography (16.00%)
- Loess (48.00%)
- Holocene (16.00%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Loess, Holocene, Paleontology and China.
When carried out as part of a general Oceanography research project, his work on Coral, Reef and Sediment trap is frequently linked to work in Maar, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
Tungsheng Liu studies Loess, namely Paleosol.
His research investigates the connection with Holocene and areas like Monsoon which intersect with concerns in Seawater.
His studies deal with areas such as Plateau and Geomorphology as well as Paleontology.
His China research includes elements of Agriculture, Climatology and Climate change.
Between 2004 and 2010, his most popular works were:
- The age of the Taklimakan Desert. (162 citations)
- Phytoliths as quantitative indicators for the reconstruction of past environmental conditions in China I: phytolith-based transfer functions (160 citations)
- Phytoliths as quantitative indicators for the reconstruction of past environmental conditions in China II: palaeoenvironmental reconstruction in the Loess Plateau (118 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Paleontology
- Climate change
- Erosion
Tungsheng Liu mostly deals with China, Oceanography, Holocene, Phytolith and Food history.
The various areas that Tungsheng Liu examines in his China study include Climatology, Northern Hemisphere, Climate change, Loess and Stadial.
His study in the fields of Alkenone under the domain of Oceanography overlaps with other disciplines such as Degree of unsaturation, Linear regression and Long chain.
His Holocene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fringing reef, Reef, Coral and δ18O.
Other disciplines of study, such as Glacial period, Mathematics, Spatial distribution, Partial least squares regression and Hydrology, are mixed together with his Phytolith studies.
Along with Food history, other disciplines of study including Agriculture, Archaeology and Panicum are integrated into his research.
