Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Ecosystem

His main research concerns Holocene, Physical geography, Peat, Climatology and Monsoon. His Holocene research includes elements of Quaternary, Marl and Paleoclimatology. Zicheng Yu has researched Physical geography in several fields, including Climate change, Paleolimnology, Hydrology and Saline water.

His Peat study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Global warming, Permafrost and Carbon cycle, Ecosystem. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Arid, Steppe, Atmospheric sciences and Vegetation. His Arid study incorporates themes from East Asian Monsoon, Plateau, Ice core and Holocene climatic optimum.

His most cited work include:

  • Holocene moisture evolution in arid central Asia and its out-of-phase relationship with Asian monsoon history (692 citations)
  • Holocene moisture evolution in arid central Asia and its out-of-phase relationship with Asian monsoon history (692 citations)
  • Estimated stocks of circumpolar permafrost carbon with quantified uncertainty ranges and identified data gaps (669 citations)

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

Zicheng Yu mainly investigates Peat, Holocene, Physical geography, Climatology and Climate change. His Peat research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Carbon cycle, Carbon sink and Ecosystem. The concepts of his Holocene study are interwoven with issues in Arid, Monsoon and Paleoclimatology.

Zicheng Yu combines subjects such as Glacial period, Hydrology, Vegetation, Plateau and Ice core with his study of Physical geography. His studies deal with areas such as Steppe, Climate model and Holocene climatic optimum as well as Climatology. His research integrates issues of Permafrost and Atmospheric sciences in his study of Global warming.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Peat (69.85%)
  • Holocene (63.82%)
  • Physical geography (44.72%)

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

  • Peat (69.85%)
  • Physical geography (44.72%)
  • Holocene (63.82%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Peat, Physical geography, Holocene, Climate change and Earth science. His Peat study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Last Glacial Maximum, Environmental chemistry, Carbon sink and Greenhouse gas. His Physical geography study combines topics in areas such as Glacial period, Tundra, Vegetation and Table.

The Holocene study combines topics in areas such as Ecology, Climatology, Carbon storage, Paleoclimatology and Global warming. Zicheng Yu mostly deals with Westerlies in his studies of Climatology. His work in Paleoclimatology addresses issues such as Paleolimnology, which are connected to fields such as East Asian Monsoon.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Westerlies Asia and monsoonal Asia: Spatiotemporal differences in climate change and possible mechanisms on decadal to sub-orbital timescales (107 citations)
  • Widespread global peatland establishment and persistence over the last 130,000 y (30 citations)
  • Widespread global peatland establishment and persistence over the last 130,000 y (30 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Ecosystem

Zicheng Yu mainly focuses on Peat, Climate change, Physical geography, Glacial period and Monsoon. His study in Peat is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Global warming, Permafrost and Greenhouse gas. His Physical geography course of study focuses on Vegetation and Structural basin, Forcing, Sediment core and Plateau.

His Glacial period research incorporates themes from Ice core and Tropical peat. His work on Holocene expands to the thematically related Monsoon. His research in Holocene intersects with topics in Pollen and Disturbance.
