What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Gene
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
Wei Lin mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Metamorphism, Migmatite, Massif and Craton.
His Geochemistry research incorporates elements of Lineation, Subduction, Eclogite and Geomorphology.
In his research, Peninsula, Extensional tectonics, Cretaceous, Mesozoic and Metamorphic core complex is intimately related to Sedimentary rock, which falls under the overarching field of Subduction.
His study in Metamorphism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Metamorphic facies and Continental collision.
Massif is a subfield of Paleontology that he studies.
The Craton study combines topics in areas such as Suture and Orogeny.
His most cited work include:
- A haplotype map of the human genome (5144 citations)
- A second generation human haplotype map of over 3.1 million SNPs (3819 citations)
- Genome-wide detection and characterization of positive selection in human populations (1413 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Paleontology, Massif, Tectonics and Subduction.
Wei Lin has researched Geochemistry in several fields, including Craton and Pluton.
His study in Seismology extends to Paleontology with its themes.
His Massif study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lineation, Orogeny, Migmatite, Geomorphology and Extensional tectonics.
His research in Subduction intersects with topics in Décollement and Continental margin.
His Metamorphism research incorporates themes from Nappe, Eclogite and Metamorphic facies.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (52.60%)
- Paleontology (38.31%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Wei Lin spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Paleontology, Tectonics, Craton and Subduction.
He interconnects Lineation and Ophiolite in the investigation of issues within Geochemistry.
His Viséan, Carboniferous, Basement and Cretaceous study in the realm of Paleontology connects with subjects such as Plateau.
His Craton research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Khondalite, Felsic and Extensional tectonics.
His work carried out in the field of Magmatism brings together such families of science as Metamorphism, Block and Mesozoic.
His research investigates the connection between Metamorphism and topics such as Stage that intersect with issues in Massif.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Cretaceous Episodic Extension in the South China Block, East Asia: Evidence From the Yuechengling Massif of Central South China (22 citations)
- Late Mesozoic extensional tectonics in the North China Craton and its adjacent regions: a review and synthesis (18 citations)
- Magnetosome Gene Duplication as an Important Driver in the Evolution of Magnetotaxis in the Alphaproteobacteria. (17 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Paleontology
- Gene
- Sedimentary rock
Wei Lin mostly deals with Paleontology, Tectonics, Subduction, Cretaceous and Mesozoic.
His study involves Magmatism, Craton, Extensional tectonics and Lithosphere, a branch of Tectonics.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Thermochronology, Metamorphism and Continental collision.
His Subduction study incorporates themes from Amphibole, Transition zone, Chromite, Mantle and Ophiolite.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Massif and Detachment fault in addition to Cretaceous.
Wei Lin has included themes like Extensional definition, Doming and Block in his Mesozoic study.
