What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Agriculture
- Ecology
- Climate change
Yili Zhang mainly investigates Plateau, Climate change, Ecology, Physical geography and Soil contamination.
His Plateau research incorporates elements of Steppe, Ecosystem, Grassland and Altitude.
His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Glacier, Glacial period and Climatology.
His work on Water resources, Biodiversity conservation and Ecosystem services as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Service, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His research integrates issues of Primary production and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index in his study of Physical geography.
His work deals with themes such as Environmental engineering, Pollution and Topsoil, which intersect with Soil contamination.
His most cited work include:
- A regional-scale assessment of Himalayan glacial lake changes using satellite observations from 1990 to 2015 (90 citations)
- NDVI-based vegetation changes and their responses to climate change from 1982 to 2011: A case study in the Koshi River Basin in the middle Himalayas (86 citations)
- Spatiotemporal variation in alpine grassland phenology in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau from 1999 to 2009 (85 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Yili Zhang mainly focuses on Physical geography, Plateau, Climate change, Land use and Land cover.
His Physical geography research incorporates themes from Drainage basin, Wetland, Hydrology, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Global change.
His Plateau research includes elements of Ecology, Soil water, Grassland, Phenology and Altitude.
In his research, Glacial period is intimately related to Glacier, which falls under the overarching field of Climate change.
His Land use study incorporates themes from Agroforestry, Urbanization and Ecosystem services.
Yili Zhang interconnects Cartography, Field and Environmental resource management in the investigation of issues within Land cover.
He most often published in these fields:
- Physical geography (51.49%)
- Plateau (45.54%)
- Climate change (39.60%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?
- Land use (29.70%)
- Land cover (28.71%)
- Physical geography (51.49%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Land use, Land cover, Physical geography, Plateau and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index.
His Land use study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agroforestry, Ecosystem services and Environmental planning.
His Land cover study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Field, Vegetation and Sustainable regional development.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Desertification and Geospatial analysis.
His Plateau study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Plough, Agronomy, Sowing, Soil fertility and Soil organic matter.
His study in Normalized Difference Vegetation Index is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate change, Global change, Ecological stability and Disturbance.
Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Farmers’ understanding of climate change in Nepal Himalayas: important determinants and implications for developing adaptation strategies (11 citations)
- Land use policies in Nepal: An overview (4 citations)
- Land use policies in Nepal: An overview (4 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Agriculture
- Ecology
- Climate change
His primary areas of investigation include Environmental planning, Land management, Legislation, Land use and Climate change.
Yili Zhang has researched Climate change in several fields, including Land cover, Vegetation and Physical geography.
His research on Physical geography often connects related topics like Drainage basin.
His work deals with themes such as Ecology, Biosphere, Irrigation and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, which intersect with Drainage basin.
A large part of his Ecology studies is devoted to Livelihood.
His Livelihood research includes themes of Remote sensing, Driving factors, Food security and Wildlife.
