Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Botany

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Soil water, Botany, Soil pH and Ecology. Xiangui Lin has researched Agronomy in several fields, including Soil organic matter, Nitrification and Arable land. Xiangui Lin focuses mostly in the field of Soil water, narrowing it down to matters related to Nutrient and, in some cases, Soil fertility and Biomass.

Xiangui Lin has included themes like Mycorrhiza, Microbial population biology, Phytoremediation and Human fertilization in his Botany study. His Soil pH study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry and Ecosystem. His study on Vegetation, Species richness and Community structure is often connected to Phylogenetic diversity as part of broader study in Ecology.

His most cited work include:

  • Soil pH drives the spatial distribution of bacterial communities along elevation on Changbai Mountain (433 citations)
  • Soil C and N availability determine the priming effect: microbial N mining and stoichiometric decomposition theories (376 citations)
  • Geographic distance and pH drive bacterial distribution in alkaline lake sediments across Tibetan Plateau (322 citations)

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

Xiangui Lin spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Soil water, Botany, Soil pH and Ecology. His studies deal with areas such as Inoculation, Loam and Soil fertility as well as Agronomy. His Soil water research includes themes of Environmental chemistry, Nutrient and Microbial population biology.

His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Microorganism, Community structure, Bulk soil and Actinobacteria. His work carried out in the field of Soil pH brings together such families of science as Intercropping, Sowing and Bioaccumulation. His work on Ecosystem, Terrestrial ecosystem and Biogeochemical cycle is typically connected to Phylogenetic diversity as part of general Ecology study, connecting several disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (52.56%)
  • Soil water (32.48%)
  • Botany (28.21%)

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

  • Soil water (32.48%)
  • Environmental chemistry (20.94%)
  • Agronomy (52.56%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Agronomy, Microcosm and Ecology. The Soil water study combines topics in areas such as Inoculation, Horticulture, Fertilizer, Irrigation and Manure. The study incorporates disciplines such as Soil organic matter, Bioremediation and Mineralization in addition to Environmental chemistry.

His Agronomy research includes elements of Loam and Soil fertility. The concepts of his Microcosm study are interwoven with issues in Ammonium, Botany and Stable-isotope probing. His work on Ecosystem, Agroecosystem, Community composition and Climate change as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Biological dispersal, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Influence of zeolite and superphosphate as additives on antibiotic resistance genes and bacterial communities during factory-scale chicken manure composting. (48 citations)
  • Two key features influencing community assembly processes at regional scale: Initial state and degree of change in environmental conditions. (32 citations)
  • Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi alleviate the heavy metal toxicity on sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants cultivated on a heavily contaminated field soil at a WEEE-recycling site. (30 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

Xiangui Lin mainly focuses on Environmental chemistry, Soil contamination, Mineralization, Soil organic matter and Microcosm. His Environmental chemistry research incorporates elements of Moisture, Drip irrigation, Captan and Greenhouse gas. His studies in Soil contamination integrate themes in fields like Monoculture, Allium tuberosum, Phytoremediation, Intercropping and Crop rotation.

His Mineralization study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Organic matter, Biostimulation, Bioremediation, Benzopyrene and Microbial biodegradation. His Soil organic matter research is included under the broader classification of Soil water. His Human fertilization research is within the category of Agronomy.
