Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

Weixin Cheng mainly focuses on Agronomy, Soil water, Soil respiration, Organic matter and Soil organic matter. His research investigates the connection between Agronomy and topics such as Ecosystem that intersect with problems in Co2 concentration and Soil organic matter decomposition. His Soil water study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Ecology.

His work in Soil respiration addresses issues such as Bulk soil, which are connected to fields such as Greenhouse. His study on Organic matter also encompasses disciplines like

  • Soil carbon which intersects with area such as Mineralization and Soil biology,
  • Soil science and related Carbon cycle. His Soil organic matter study which covers Horticulture that intersects with Respiration rate.

His most cited work include:

  • Microbial and Faunal Interactions and Effects on Litter Nitrogen and Decomposition in Agroecosystems (531 citations)
  • Photosynthesis controls of rhizosphere respiration and organic matter decomposition (382 citations)
  • Rhizosphere Effects on Decomposition (253 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Soil water, Soil organic matter, Soil carbon and Soil respiration. His Agronomy research includes elements of Ecosystem, Bulk soil and Water content. The study incorporates disciplines such as Nutrient and Terrestrial ecosystem in addition to Soil water.

His research integrates issues of Organic matter, Humus, Soil fertility, Mineralization and Horticulture in his study of Soil organic matter. The various areas that Weixin Cheng examines in his Soil carbon study include Larch, Total organic carbon, Carbon cycle and Forest ecology. His Soil respiration study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil texture, Helianthus annuus and Q10.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (57.97%)
  • Soil water (47.83%)
  • Soil organic matter (44.93%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Agronomy (57.97%)
  • Soil carbon (47.83%)
  • Soil organic matter (44.93%)

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

Weixin Cheng mainly investigates Agronomy, Soil carbon, Soil organic matter, Mineralization and Biomass. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cycling, Forest ecology, Ecosystem and Water content. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cunninghamia, Growing season, Phenology and Larch, Larix kaempferi.

His Soil organic matter research is classified as research in Soil water. His work focuses on many connections between Soil water and other disciplines, such as Plant physiology, that overlap with his field of interest in Biogeochemical cycle. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Mineralization, Total organic carbon, Environmental chemistry and Dissolved organic carbon is strongly linked to Carbon cycle.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rhizosphere priming effects on soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics among tree species with and without intraspecific competition (31 citations)
  • Rhizosphere priming effects on soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics among tree species with and without intraspecific competition (31 citations)
  • Rhizosphere priming of grassland species under different water and nitrogen conditions: a mechanistic hypothesis of C-N interactions (16 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Botany

His scientific interests lie mostly in Soil organic matter, Mineralization, Agronomy, Soil carbon and Sowing. His Soil organic matter study contributes to a more complete understanding of Soil water. His study in Soil water is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Water content and Plant physiology.

His research in Mineralization focuses on subjects like Carbon cycle, which are connected to Photosynthesis, Total organic carbon, Environmental chemistry and Dissolved organic carbon. Weixin Cheng combines subjects such as Soil structure and Ecosystem, Chronosequence with his study of Agronomy. His work deals with themes such as Larch, Intraspecific competition, Animal science and Respiration, which intersect with Sowing.
