About Yi Zhong

Dr. Zhong’s research centers on “Multi-sphere Climate Systems and Carbon Cycle Response Mechanisms in the North Pacific,”​ integrating sedimentary magnetism, paleoclimatology, and paleoceanography. His work focuses on:

Sedimentary magnetism: Deciphering magnetic mineral records to reconstruct paleoclimate and geomagnetic evolution.

Land-ocean coupling: Investigating interactions between Arctic glaciation, global carbon cycling, and hydroclimate dynamics.

High-low latitude teleconnections: Quantifying moisture transport and atmospheric circulation shifts (e.g., Walker Circulation, westerlies).

Global change: Linking orbital forcing (precession, obliquity) to monsoons, ice-sheet dynamics, and oceanic anoxia.

He has pioneered the integration of sediment records with climate models​ to elucidate drivers of Pleistocene-Holocene environmental change.
