Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt
  • Sedimentary rock

Zengqian Hou focuses on Geochemistry, Subduction, Adakite, Continental collision and Crust. The concepts of his Geochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Batholith, Porphyry copper deposit and Oceanic crust. His work in Subduction covers topics such as Rift which are related to areas like Foreland basin, Metamorphic rock, Thrust fault and Metamorphism.

His Adakite study incorporates themes from Mantle, Partial melting and Mantle wedge. His study explores the link between Mantle and topics such as Amphibole that cross with problems in Eclogite. He interconnects Proterozoic and Lunar terrane in the investigation of issues within Zircon.

His most cited work include:

  • The Lhasa Terrane: Record of a microcontinent and its histories of drift and growth (700 citations)
  • The origin and pre-Cenozoic evolution of the Tibetan Plateau (695 citations)
  • Origin of adakitic intrusives generated during mid-Miocene east–west extension in southern Tibet (581 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Zircon, Partial melting, Crust and Subduction. His research integrates issues of Adakite and Continental collision in his study of Geochemistry. His Zircon research also works with subjects such as

  • Igneous rock most often made with reference to Magmatism,
  • Petrology that intertwine with fields like Batholith.

His research investigates the connection with Partial melting and areas like Petrogenesis which intersect with concerns in Lithophile. His Crust study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biotite and Terrane. His Subduction study combines topics in areas such as Ophiolite, Rift and Earth science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (92.31%)
  • Zircon (30.77%)
  • Partial melting (25.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (92.31%)
  • Zircon (30.77%)
  • Crust (20.77%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Zircon, Crust, Mafic and Subduction. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mineralization and Continental collision. His Zircon research incorporates themes from Craton, Xenolith, Mineral redox buffer, Magmatism and Petrogenesis.

His studies in Subduction integrate themes in fields like Partial melting and Terrane. His studies deal with areas such as Volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposit, Mantle wedge and Volcanic rock as well as Partial melting. His study in Mantle is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Lithospheric mantle and Biotite.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Fingerprinting metal transfer from mantle. (12 citations)
  • Pyrite Re-Os age constraints on the Irankuh Zn-Pb deposit, Iran, and regional implications (8 citations)
  • Porphyry mineralization in the Tethyan orogen (6 citations)

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

  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt
  • Sedimentary rock

His main research concerns Geochemistry, Crust, Subduction, Mantle and Terrane. His Partial melting study in the realm of Geochemistry interacts with subjects such as Metal transfer. His work deals with themes such as Mantle wedge, Mafic and Volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposit, which intersect with Partial melting.

His research in Mantle intersects with topics in Basalt, Lithosphere and Volcanic rock. His Terrane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fractional crystallization, Porphyry copper deposit and Continental crust. Zengqian Hou has researched Mineralization in several fields, including Muscovite, Gabbro and Quartz monzonite.
