What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Oceanography
- Sedimentary rock
- Sediment
Zhifei Liu mainly investigates Illite, Geochemistry, Kaolinite, Paleontology and Clay minerals.
His Illite research incorporates elements of Glacial period, Sediment, Provenance and Structural basin.
His research investigates the connection between Glacial period and topics such as Monsoon that intersect with issues in Paleocurrent, Tectonics, Cenozoic, Magnetostratigraphy and Neogene.
His Geochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Permian, Suture and Obduction.
His Kaolinite research focuses on East Asian Monsoon and how it connects with Geomorphology.
As a part of the same scientific family, Zhifei Liu mostly works in the field of Clay minerals, focusing on Drainage basin and, on occasion, Fluvial.
His most cited work include:
- Constraints on the early uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau (472 citations)
- The Indus–Yarlung Zangbo ophiolites from Nanga Parbat to Namche Barwa syntaxes, southern Tibet: First synthesis of petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology with incidences on geodynamic reconstructions of Neo-Tethys (259 citations)
- Ages and magnetic structures of the South China Sea constrained by deep tow magnetic surveys and IODP Expedition 349 (232 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Geochemistry, South china, Sedimentary rock and Illite.
His Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacial period and Sediment, Terrigenous sediment.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Geochemistry, Ophiolite are connected with Suture and other disciplines.
His Sedimentary rock study contributes to a more complete understanding of Paleontology.
His Illite study deals with Provenance intersecting with Conglomerate.
His work in Cenozoic addresses subjects such as Magnetostratigraphy, which are connected to disciplines such as Tectonics.
He most often published in these fields:
- Oceanography (41.10%)
- Geochemistry (30.06%)
- South china (19.02%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Oceanography (41.10%)
- Geochemistry (30.06%)
- Clay minerals (15.34%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Oceanography, Geochemistry, Clay minerals, Weathering and Illite are his primary areas of study.
His research integrates issues of Glacial period and Sediment transport in his study of Oceanography.
His work carried out in the field of Geochemistry brings together such families of science as Sedimentary depositional environment, Monsoon and Subduction.
In his work, Kaolinite is strongly intertwined with Cretaceous, which is a subfield of Weathering.
His Illite study combines topics in areas such as Provenance and Paleoclimatology.
His Provenance study is concerned with the larger field of Paleontology.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Mineralogical control on the fate of continentally derived organic matter in the ocean (27 citations)
- Terrigenous sediment input responding to sea level change and East Asian monsoon evolution since the last deglaciation in the southern South China Sea (10 citations)
- Perspectives on provenance and alteration of suspended and sedimentary organic matter in the subtropical Pearl River system, South China (9 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Oceanography
- Sedimentary rock
- Sediment
His main research concerns Oceanography, Geochemistry, Clay minerals, Structural basin and Total organic carbon.
His Oceanography research includes themes of Provenance and Terrigenous sediment.
His research in Geochemistry is mostly concerned with Turbidite.
Zhifei Liu focuses mostly in the field of Clay minerals, narrowing it down to topics relating to Mekong river and, in certain cases, Last Glacial Maximum.
His research investigates the connection between Structural basin and topics such as Glacial period that intersect with problems in Foraminifera.
His study in Total organic carbon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Drainage basin, Dissolved organic carbon and Radiocarbon dating.
