Zhisheng An
IEE Institute of Earth Environment, Chinese Academy of Sciences
An Zhisheng is recognized for his exceptional contributions to understanding the global significance of Chinese loess, monsoon control theory, monsoon dynamics, and global climate changes and providing key international leadership. His step from classical Quaternary geology to monsoon dynamics was a prescient moment in Earth System Science in Asia. An has published more than 400 scientific papers, including 30 in Science, Nature and associated series, PNAS, and he has co-authored several books.
