Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Climate change

Yongqiang Zong mostly deals with Oceanography, Holocene, Diatom, Estuary and Sea level. His work carried out in the field of Oceanography brings together such families of science as High marsh and Altitude. Yongqiang Zong interconnects Monsoon and China in the investigation of issues within Holocene.

His studies deal with areas such as Intertidal zone, Brackish water and Salt marsh as well as Diatom. He has researched Estuary in several fields, including Structural basin, Environmental chemistry, Total organic carbon, Sediment and Hydrology. His Sea level research incorporates themes from Radiocarbon dating and Quaternary.

His most cited work include:

  • Fire and flood management of coastal swamp enabled first rice paddy cultivation in east China (270 citations)
  • The 1998 Flood on the Yangtze, China (188 citations)
  • Mid-Holocene sea-level highstand along the Southeast Coast of China (181 citations)

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

Yongqiang Zong focuses on Oceanography, Holocene, Sea level, Sediment and Estuary. As part of his studies on Oceanography, Yongqiang Zong often connects relevant areas like China. The various areas that Yongqiang Zong examines in his Holocene study include East Asian Monsoon, Climatology, Radiocarbon dating, Sedimentary rock and Physical geography.

His Sea level study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Deglaciation, Marine transgression, Quaternary and Wetland. His research on Sediment also deals with topics like

  • Structural basin which intersects with area such as Floodplain,
  • Land reclamation that connect with fields like Fluvial. In Estuary, Yongqiang Zong works on issues like Hydrology, which are connected to Natural hazard.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (51.30%)
  • Holocene (47.83%)
  • Sea level (34.78%)

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

  • Holocene (47.83%)
  • Oceanography (51.30%)
  • Sea level (34.78%)

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

Yongqiang Zong mainly focuses on Holocene, Oceanography, Sea level, Sediment and Physical geography. His work deals with themes such as Subtropics, Structural basin, Radiocarbon dating, Sedimentary rock and China, which intersect with Holocene. He works in the field of Oceanography, focusing on Monsoon in particular.

His Sea level research incorporates elements of Estuary and Shore. His Sediment study also includes fields such as

  • Coastal plain and related Quaternary,
  • Marine transgression which is related to area like Progradation, Agriculture, Agroforestry and Paddy field. His Physical geography study combines topics in areas such as Diatom, Period, Pollen and Wetland.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Quantitative Holocene climatic reconstructions for the lower Yangtze region of China (28 citations)
  • Holocene sea-level history of the northern coast of South China Sea (23 citations)
  • A review of microplastics in sediments: Spatial and temporal occurrences, biological effects, and analytic methods (16 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Oceanography

His primary scientific interests are in Holocene, Sediment, Sea level, Period and Physical geography. His Holocene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Structural basin and Monsoon. He combines subjects such as Sedimentary rock, Sedimentation, Oceanography and Subtropics with his study of Structural basin.

He interconnects Soil water, Soil pH, Atmospheric sciences, Transect and Altitude in the investigation of issues within Sediment. His Period research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Continental shelf, Post-glacial rebound, China, Micropaleontology and Diatom. His research integrates issues of Block and Bay in his study of Physical geography.
