Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Sediment

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Sediment, Hydrology, Oceanography, Drainage basin and Sedimentary budget. His Sediment research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Winter storm and Holocene. His Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as East Asian Monsoon, Deposition and Seasonality.

His study on Estuary, Upwelling and Sea level is often connected to Far East as part of broader study in Oceanography. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Drainage basin, La Niña is strongly linked to Climate change. As a part of the same scientific family, Zuosheng Yang mostly works in the field of River mouth, focusing on Tributary and, on occasion, Erosion and Three gorges.

His most cited work include:

  • Flux and fate of Yangtze River sediment delivered to the East China Sea (616 citations)
  • Stepwise decreases of the Huanghe (Yellow River) sediment load (1950–2005): Impacts of climate change and human activities (478 citations)
  • Dam impacts on the Changjiang (Yangtze) River sediment discharge to the sea: The past 55 years and after the Three Gorges Dam (380 citations)

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

Zuosheng Yang focuses on Sediment, Hydrology, Oceanography, Estuary and River mouth. The various areas that Zuosheng Yang examines in his Sediment study include Erosion, Water column and Tributary. His work deals with themes such as Sediment transport and Sedimentary budget, which intersect with Hydrology.

His work investigates the relationship between Oceanography and topics such as Sedimentary rock that intersect with problems in Grain size. His Estuary study incorporates themes from Sedimentation and Particle size. His River mouth research incorporates elements of Channel and Transect.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Sediment (64.76%)
  • Hydrology (52.38%)
  • Oceanography (43.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Sediment (64.76%)
  • Hydrology (52.38%)
  • Oceanography (43.81%)

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

His primary areas of study are Sediment, Hydrology, Oceanography, Estuary and Erosion. His study deals with a combination of Sediment and River delta. His Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Deposition and River mouth.

His research in River mouth focuses on subjects like Drainage basin, which are connected to Sediment transport. His Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sedimentary rock and East Asia. Zuosheng Yang usually deals with Erosion and limits it to topics linked to Sedimentation and Diagenesis, Sedimentary depositional environment and Pyrite.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Impacts of the dam-orientated water-sediment regulation scheme on the lower reaches and delta of the Yellow River (Huanghe): A review (81 citations)
  • Human impacts on sediment in the Yangtze River: A review and new perspectives (65 citations)
  • Stepwise morphological evolution of the active Yellow River (Huanghe) delta lobe (1976–2013): Dominant roles of riverine discharge and sediment grain size (40 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Sediment

Zuosheng Yang mostly deals with Sediment, Hydrology, River delta, Shore and Erosion. Zuosheng Yang combines subjects such as Estuary, Plume, Grain size and Progradation with his study of Sediment. His studies in Hydrology integrate themes in fields like Deposition, Sediment transport and River mouth.

Zuosheng Yang has included themes like Sedimentary budget, Siltation and Water cycle in his River mouth study. His Shore study is concerned with Oceanography in general. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Drainage basin, Dry season and Flood myth.
