Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction
  • Volcano

Xin Liu spends much of his time researching Seismology, Subduction, Paleontology, Craton and Mantle wedge. His Geomorphology research extends to the thematically linked field of Paleontology. He combines subjects such as Rift, Geochemistry, Metamorphism and Lithosphere with his study of Craton.

His Lithosphere research incorporates elements of Seismic tomography, Seismic anisotropy, Geophysics and Mantle. His Mantle wedge research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Volcano, Intraplate earthquake, Interplate earthquake and Crust. The study incorporates disciplines such as Slab, Seafloor spreading and Transition zone in addition to Pacific Plate.

His most cited work include:

  • Closure of the Proto-Tethys Ocean and Early Paleozoic amalgamation of microcontinental blocks in East Asia (188 citations)
  • Paleoproterozoic structural evolution of the southern segment of the Jiao-Liao-Ji Belt, North China Craton (187 citations)
  • Mesozoic basins in eastern China and their bearing on the deconstruction of the North China Craton (145 citations)

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

Xin Liu mainly focuses on Seismology, Subduction, Slab, Geophysics and Mantle wedge. His study connects Seismic tomography and Seismology. His Subduction study is concerned with Paleontology in general.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Paleontology, Geomorphology are connected with Fault and other disciplines. His Slab study which covers Petrology that intersects with Geochemistry and Upwelling. His Mantle wedge study also includes fields such as

  • Crust which connect with Mantle,
  • Transition zone that connect with fields like Seafloor spreading.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (120.73%)
  • Subduction (98.78%)
  • Slab (57.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Seismology (120.73%)
  • Slab (57.32%)
  • Mantle wedge (54.88%)

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

His main research concerns Seismology, Slab, Mantle wedge, Subduction and Crust. His research in Seismology intersects with topics in Seismic tomography and Paleontology. Xin Liu has included themes like Seismic anisotropy and Forearc in his Seismic tomography study.

Xin Liu interconnects Volcano, Lithosphere and Petrology in the investigation of issues within Slab. His Mantle wedge research integrates issues from Nankai trough, Craton and Transition zone. The Subduction study combines topics in areas such as S-wave and Geophysics.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Closure of the Proto-Tethys Ocean and Early Paleozoic amalgamation of microcontinental blocks in East Asia (188 citations)
  • Age of the subducting Pacific slab beneath East Asia and its geodynamic implications (115 citations)
  • Age of the subducting Pacific slab beneath East Asia and its geodynamic implications (115 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction
  • Volcano

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Slab, Seismology, Mantle wedge, Crust and Subduction. Xin Liu carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Slab and Slab window. His work carried out in the field of Crust brings together such families of science as Volcano and Mantle.

In his research, Upwelling and Petrology is intimately related to Lithosphere, which falls under the overarching field of Mantle. His Subduction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Craton and Geophysics, Transition zone. His Craton research incorporates elements of Seafloor spreading and Pacific Plate.
