[1] Yonglong Lu*, Nebojsa Nakicenovic, Martin Visbeck, Anne-Sophie Stevance, 2015. Five priorities for the UN Sustainable Development Goals, Nature, 520:432-433.
(It has generated large global impacts: cited 151 times within a short time by Nature, Nature Energy, PNAS, Nature Geo-science , Ecology Letters and other leading journals. The major contents were included in UN Global Sustainable Development Report 2016, posted on UN Sustainable Development Knowledge Platform; circulated by International Council for Science to member countries and scientific unions via electronic newsletter; covered on the websites of Future Earth, IRDR (Integrated Research for Disaster Risk), International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, Global Earth Observation Systems, Science Times, and other mass media; Scientific American reprinted the whole paper with Chinese translation. Prof Lu was invited to make a plenary speech at UN High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development on July 13, 2016, and 25th TWAS General Assembly, etc.)
[2] Yajuan Shi, Ruoshi Wang, Yonglong Lu*, Shuai Song, Andrew C. Johnson, Andrew Sweetman, Kevin Jones, 2016. Regional multi-compartment ecological risk assessment: Establishing cadmium pollution risk in the northern Bohai Rim, China, Environment International, 94: 283-291.
(As the peer scientists commented, “this paper made a great contribution to regional multi-compartment ecological risk assessment”. "The authors firstly constructed a framework for regional multi-compartment probabilistic ecological risk assessment, which was then used is a case study of Cd ecological risk assessment in soil, river water, river sediment, coastal water, and coastal sediment in northern Bohai Rim". "As the authors noted, this paper is a great improvement from traditional ecological risk assessment targeting single species or single environmental compartment rather than ecosystem as a whole". Because of his pioneering work on integrated ecological risk assessment, he was invited by UK Natural Environmental Research Council to review major grant proposals in this area)
[3] Yonglong Lu*, Alan Jenkins*, Robert C. Ferrier, Mark Bailey, Iain J. Gordon, Shuai Song, Jikun Huang, Shaofeng Jia, Fusuo Zhang, Xuejun Liu, Zhaozhong Feng, Zhibin Zhang, 2015. Addressing China’s Grand Challenge of Achieving Food Security Whilst Ensuring Environmental Sustainability, Science Advances, 1, e1400039.
(It was the first and sample paper published in Science Advances in the field of Environmental Sciences since the launch of Science Advances in 2015, and American Association for Advancement of Science (AAAS) released a news about the paper with cover pictures. It has been widely cited 60 times in Science, Nature Sustainability, Environmental Science and Technology and other leading journals, quoting "multiple indicators demonstrate that China's resource and environment can't support continued growth on its current trajectory, the nation must develop its economy more sustainably, and in particular, must realize food security while simultaneously protecting the environment.")
[4] Yonglong Lu*, Shuai Song, Ruoshi Wang, Zhaoyang Liu, Jing Meng, Andrew J. Sweetman, Alan Jenkins, Robert C. Ferrier, Hong Li , Wei Luo, Tieyu Wang, 2015. Impacts of Soil and Water Pollution on Food Safety and Health Risks in China, Environment International, 77: 5-15.
(It is one of the highly cited papers listed by Elsevier, and has been cited 298 times within a short time in Trends in Ecology and Evolution, Environment International and other leading journals. The Economist reported the paper in its issue on The Most Neglected Threat to Public Health in China on 31st July 2017. As the international peer scientists commented, it is the first paper to link soil and water pollution, food safety and human health risks together, and "Lu et al made a comprehensive map of soil and water pollution threats to food safety and human health in some cancer villages in China". )
[5] Shijie Liu, Yonglong Lu*, Tieyu Wang, Shuangwei Xie, Kevin C. Jones, Andrew J. Sweetman, 2014. Using gridded multimedia model to simulate spatial fate of Benzo[α]]pyrene on regional scale, Environment International, 63: 53-63.
(The method developed specifically to simulate transportation and spatial fate of emerging pollutants has been taken as a representative one, and cited 23 times in Environment International, Environmental Science and Technology, and other leading journals. This is a product of joint work with the colleagues in Lancaster University in UK)
[6] Guizhen He, Lei Zhang, Author Mol, Yonglong Lu*, Jianguo Liu, 2013. Revising China's Environmental Law, Science, 341:133.
(Cited 45 times in Science, Science Advances, Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, Environmental Science & Policy and other leading journals and attracted extensive attention, widely reported or commented by Science (2013), Radio Germany (2013), Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment (2014), and other media, and the policy recommendations have been well accepted by the law makers and incorporated into the revised Environmental Law.)
[7] Shuangwei Xie, Tieyu Wang*, Shijie Liu, Kevin C. Jones, Andrew J. Sweetman, Yonglong Lu*, 2013. Industrial source identification and emission estimation of perfluorooctane sulfonate in China, Environmental International, 52:1-8.
(Cited 176 times in Environmental Science & Technology, Environment International, Environmental Pollution,Science of the Total Environment, and other leading journals. The methodology developed for emission estimation of PFOS has "significant contribution to the field" and has been widely applied in different countries, and the estimation results have been used for implementation of Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, especially for "readjustment of industrial structure".)
[8] Guizhen He, Yonglong Lu*, Arthur P.J. Mol, Theo Beckers, 2012. Changes and challenges: China's environmental management in transition, Environmental Development, 3: 25-38.
(Cited 142 times in Science, Applied Geography, Renewable and Sustainable Energy, Applied Energy, Journal of Environmental Management, Land Use Policy and other leading journals. It made a comprehensive profile of China's environmental management system, evolution process and current progress, emphasizing the great change in getting started from scratch to form a whole system of environmental policies and regulations, while presenting major challenges in addressing the global environmental change, especially in the applications of economic incentives and voluntary instruments.)
[9] Tieyu Wang, Jong Seong Khim, Chunli Chen, Jonathan E Naile, Yonglong Lu*, Kurunthachalam Kannan, JinSoon Park, Wei Luo, Wentao Jiao, Wenyou Hu, John P. Giesy, 2012. Perfluorinated Compounds in Surface Waters from Northern China: Comparison to Level of Industrialization, Environment International, 42: 37-46.
(Cited 121 times in Nature Communication, Environmental Science & Technology, Environment International and other leading journals. According to international peer scientists, it was the first paper to illustrate the linkage between urbanization level and perfluorinated compounds in surface waters, and legislation in Europe, North America and Japan has either eliminated or restricted the production of PFOS-containing chemicals, resulting in the shift of their production to the developing countries including China)
[10] Ying Xing, Yonglong Lu*, Richard W. Dawson, Yajuan Shi, Hong Zhang, Tieyu Wang, Wenbin Liu, Hongchang Ren, 2005. A Spatial Temporal Assessment of Pollution from PCBs in China, Chemosphere, 60 (6):731-739.
(Cited 308 times in Environmental Science & Technology, Environment International, Environmental Pollution, and other leading journals. The estimation of PCBs production from 1966 to 1974 (when they were banned) has been widely used for academic research or regulatory purposes, and temporal and spatial distributions of PCBs in different environmental media are generally recognized, being particularly evident in areas where economy developed rapidly.)
