Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

Xiangdong Yang mostly deals with Ecology, Physical geography, Holocene, Climatology and Eutrophication. Ecology is closely attributed to Structural basin in his study. His Physical geography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Land use, Pollen and Canonical correspondence analysis.

His Holocene research incorporates elements of Monsoon and Climate change. The study incorporates disciplines such as Diatom and Hydrology, Floodplain, Drainage basin in addition to Eutrophication. His studies in Diatom integrate themes in fields like Sediment and Plankton.

His most cited work include:

  • Flickering gives early warning signals of a critical transition to a eutrophic lake state (271 citations)
  • Phytoliths as quantitative indicators for the reconstruction of past environmental conditions in China I: phytolith-based transfer functions (160 citations)
  • Late Holocene forcing of the Asian winter and summer monsoon as evidenced by proxy records from the northern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (129 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Diatom, Drainage basin, Physical geography and Eutrophication. His Diatom study combines topics in areas such as Global warming, Monsoon, Canonical correspondence analysis and Plankton. His Drainage basin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Deforestation, Sediment, Surface runoff and Fragilaria.

His study on Physical geography also encompasses disciplines like

  • Vegetation most often made with reference to Pollen,
  • Climatology which is related to area like Paleoclimatology and Period. His research in Eutrophication intersects with topics in Water quality, Floodplain, Total organic carbon and Algae. His studies deal with areas such as Structural basin, Climate change and Environmental resource management as well as Ecosystem.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (43.86%)
  • Diatom (29.82%)
  • Drainage basin (19.30%)

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

  • Ecology (43.86%)
  • Ecosystem (17.54%)
  • Physical geography (18.42%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Ecosystem, Physical geography, Diatom and Lake ecosystem. Xiangdong Yang conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Ecology and Phylum through his works. His research integrates issues of Climate change, Vegetation and Eutrophication in his study of Ecosystem.

His Eutrophication research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydrology, Alternative stable state and Paleolimnology. His Physical geography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Seasonality, Pollen, Grain size and Wetland. Xiangdong Yang interconnects Macrofossil, Plant community and Monsoon in the investigation of issues within Lake ecosystem.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Summer temperature fluctuations in Southwestern China during the end of the LGM and the last deglaciation (14 citations)
  • Network parameters quantify loss of assemblage structure in human‐impacted lake ecosystems (13 citations)
  • The Relative Abundance of Benthic Bacterial Phyla Along a Water-Depth Gradient in a Plateau Lake: Physical, Chemical, and Biotic Drivers. (10 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Ecosystem
  • Biodiversity

His scientific interests lie mostly in Lake ecosystem, Ecology, Diatom, Physical geography and Biodiversity. Xiangdong Yang has researched Lake ecosystem in several fields, including Dominance and Eutrophication. Xiangdong Yang brings together Ecology and Planctomycetes to produce work in his papers.

His studies deal with areas such as Ecosystem health, Ecosystem, Ecological indicator and Nestedness, Species richness as well as Diatom. His Physical geography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Palynology, Ecological succession, Land cover, Terrestrial ecosystem and Wetland. His study in Biodiversity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ecological resilience, Frequency distribution, Community structure and Skewness.
