Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt
  • Geochemistry

Geochemistry, Massif, Zircon, Craton and Petrology are his primary areas of study. Geochemistry is represented through his Geochronology, Partial melting, Igneous rock, Basalt and Peridotite research. His Massif research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Petrogenesis, Delamination and Paleozoic.

His Petrogenesis research incorporates elements of Permian, Early Triassic and Mesozoic. His Paleozoic study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Precambrian, Gneiss and Terrane. His Craton study combines topics in areas such as Xenolith, Continental crust, Mantle and Eclogite.

His most cited work include:

  • Recycling lower continental crust in the North China craton (1208 citations)
  • Recycling deep cratonic lithosphere and generation of intraplate magmatism in the North China Craton (346 citations)
  • Recycled crust controls contrasting source compositions of Mesozoic and Cenozoic basalts in the North China Craton (182 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Zircon, Craton, Massif and Igneous rock. His studies link Petrology with Geochemistry. His work carried out in the field of Zircon brings together such families of science as Continental crust, Crust, Permian, Basement and Magmatism.

Wen-Liang Xu has included themes like Eclogite, Mesozoic and Xenolith, Basalt, Peridotite in his Craton study. His Massif research incorporates themes from Subduction, Metamorphism, Phanerozoic, Supercontinent and Precambrian. Wen-Liang Xu interconnects Andesite, Felsic and Ordovician in the investigation of issues within Igneous rock.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (156.35%)
  • Zircon (111.60%)
  • Craton (66.30%)

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

  • Geochemistry (156.35%)
  • Zircon (111.60%)
  • Craton (66.30%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Zircon, Craton, Massif and Geochronology. His Geochemistry research includes themes of Subduction and Magmatism. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Paleozoic, Permian, Metamorphism, Supercontinent and Hornblende.

His study in Craton is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Eclogite and Detritus. His work in Massif addresses subjects such as Sedimentary rock, which are connected to disciplines such as Terrane and Structural basin. The Petrogenesis study combines topics in areas such as Mesozoic and Continental crust.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Final Closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean and Onset of Subduction of Paleo-Pacific Ocean: Constraints From Early Mesozoic Magmatism in Central Southern Jilin Province, NE China (14 citations)
  • Final Closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean and Onset of Subduction of Paleo-Pacific Ocean: Constraints From Early Mesozoic Magmatism in Central Southern Jilin Province, NE China (14 citations)
  • Timing of closure of the eastern Mongol–Okhotsk Ocean: Constraints from U–Pb and Hf isotopic data of detrital zircons from metasediments along the Dzhagdy Transect (12 citations)
