What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Plate tectonics
Paleontology, Seismology, Sedimentary rock, Plateau and Terrane are his primary areas of study.
His work on Cretaceous, Paleomagnetism, Late Miocene and Subduction as part of general Paleontology research is often related to Collision, thus linking different fields of science.
His Thrust fault, Accretionary wedge and Lava study in the realm of Seismology connects with subjects such as Geomagnetic reversal.
His Sedimentary rock research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mineralogy, Basin and range topography and Breccia.
Xixi Zhao focuses mostly in the field of Plateau, narrowing it down to topics relating to Cenozoic and, in certain cases, Paleogene, East Asian Monsoon, Structural geology, Sedimentology and Paleocurrent.
The various areas that Xixi Zhao examines in his Terrane study include Crust, Rift, Magnetostratigraphy, Neogene and Monsoon.
His most cited work include:
- Constraints on the early uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau (472 citations)
- Isotopic and paleomagnetic constraints on the Mesozoic tectonic evolution of south China (379 citations)
- Palaeomagnetic constraints on the collision and rotation of North and South China (330 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Paleomagnetism, Geochemistry, Seismology and Plateau.
His study in Cretaceous, Tectonics, Structural basin, Sedimentary rock and Magnetostratigraphy is carried out as part of his studies in Paleontology.
His Paleomagnetism research includes themes of Volcanic rock, Fold, Crust and Terrane.
His studies deal with areas such as Large igneous province, Geomorphology and Oceanic crust as well as Geochemistry.
His Accretionary wedge and Subduction study, which is part of a larger body of work in Seismology, is frequently linked to Rock magnetism, bridging the gap between disciplines.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Plateau, Lava, True polar wander, Magnetic anomaly, Pillow lava and Basement is strongly linked to Basalt.
