Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Carbon dioxide

Weixin Ding mainly investigates Agronomy, Fertilizer, Soil water, Loam and Growing season. The concepts of his Agronomy study are interwoven with issues in Soil carbon, Soil respiration, Soil fertility and Water content. His research investigates the connection between Fertilizer and topics such as Compost that intersect with issues in Fraction.

He combines topics linked to Botany with his work on Soil water. His work in Loam covers topics such as Total organic carbon which are related to areas like Soil test and Mineralization. His Growing season study incorporates themes from Peat and Irrigation.

His most cited work include:

  • Long-term application of organic manure and nitrogen fertilizer on N2O emissions, soil quality and crop production in a sandy loam soil (241 citations)
  • Biochar suppressed the decomposition of organic carbon in a cultivated sandy loam soil: A negative priming effect (146 citations)
  • Nitrous oxide emissions from an intensively cultivated maize–wheat rotation soil in the North China Plain (136 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Fertilizer, Soil water, Soil carbon and Environmental chemistry. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nitrous oxide, Loam and Nitrification. His Fertilizer research focuses on Animal science and how it connects with Field experiment.

Weixin Ding focuses mostly in the field of Soil water, narrowing it down to topics relating to Human fertilization and, in certain cases, Ammonium. His Soil carbon study which covers Soil organic matter that intersects with Soil chemistry. His Environmental chemistry study also includes

  • Methane which connect with Flux,
  • Carex lasiocarpa which intersects with area such as Botany, Cyperaceae and Dissolved organic carbon.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (49.28%)
  • Fertilizer (31.16%)
  • Soil water (30.43%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Agronomy (49.28%)
  • Greenhouse gas (13.77%)
  • Manure (20.29%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Greenhouse gas, Manure, Fertilizer and Environmental chemistry. His Agronomy research includes themes of Soil organic matter, Soil water and Soil classification. His research in Soil water is mostly concerned with Soil carbon.

His studies deal with areas such as Straw, Ultisol, Organic fertilizer and Animal science as well as Manure. Weixin Ding applies his multidisciplinary studies on Fertilizer and Amendment in his research. His Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Cellulose, Mineralization, Nitrogen, Methane and Carbon.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Long-term manure application increases soil organic matter and aggregation, and alters microbial community structure and keystone taxa (65 citations)
  • Rapid growth in greenhouse gas emissions from the adoption of industrial-scale aquaculture (29 citations)
  • Long-term application of manure over plant residues mitigates acidification, builds soil organic carbon and shifts prokaryotic diversity in acidic Ultisols (29 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Fertilizer, Manure, Straw and Ultisol. His Agronomy research includes elements of Soil water, Soil carbon, Soil organic matter, Soil classification and Nutrient. His Topsoil study in the realm of Soil water connects with subjects such as Microbial Physiology.

Weixin Ding performs integrative Fertilizer and Amendment research in his work. His studies in Manure integrate themes in fields like Camellia sinensis and Organic fertilizer. His Organic fertilizer research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nitrous oxide, Chicken manure, Animal science and Nitrogen.
