What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Ecology
- Sedimentary rock
His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Oceanography and δ18O.
Trace element, Climate change, Aquatic organisms and Abiogenesis is closely connected to Isotope geochemistry in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Paleontology.
His work focuses on many connections between Mineralogy and other disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry, that overlap with his field of interest in Calcite, Salinity, Ostracod and Fractionation.
Allan R. Chivas combines subjects such as Boron, Carbonate, Chemical composition, Seawater and Carbon dioxide with his study of Geochemistry.
His Oceanography study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Floodplain.
His research in δ18O intersects with topics in Glacial period and Isotopes of oxygen.
His most cited work include:
- Geochemical and isotopic systematics in carbonatites and implications for the evolution of ocean-island sources (400 citations)
- Rapid emergence of life shown by discovery of 3,700-million-year-old microbial structures (266 citations)
- A high-resolution Sr/Ca and δ18O coral record from the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, and the 1982–1983 El Niño (266 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Geochemistry, Oceanography, Paleontology, Mineralogy and Quaternary are his primary areas of study.
Allan R. Chivas has researched Geochemistry in several fields, including Porphyry copper deposit and Carbonate.
His Oceanography research includes themes of Sediment, Total organic carbon and Isotopes of oxygen.
The concepts of his Isotopes of oxygen study are interwoven with issues in δ18O and Regolith.
His research investigates the connection between Mineralogy and topics such as Environmental chemistry that intersect with problems in Ostracod and Fractionation.
His Quaternary research incorporates elements of Basalt and Marine transgression.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (42.25%)
- Oceanography (26.29%)
- Paleontology (16.43%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?
- Geochemistry (42.25%)
- Quaternary (16.90%)
- Sedimentary rock (11.27%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Allan R. Chivas mostly deals with Geochemistry, Quaternary, Sedimentary rock, Weathering and Erosion.
His Geochemistry research integrates issues from Sediment and Thermoluminescence dating.
His work in Sediment addresses subjects such as Organic matter, which are connected to disciplines such as Oceanography.
When carried out as part of a general Oceanography research project, his work on Continental shelf is frequently linked to work in Passive margin, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His Quaternary study combines topics in areas such as Elephas, Ecology and Pleistocene.
His Erosion course of study focuses on Mineral and Olivine, Mineralogy and Nucleogenic.
Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Rapid emergence of life shown by discovery of 3,700-million-year-old microbial structures (266 citations)
- Cross-examining Earth’s oldest stromatolites: Seeing through the effects of heterogeneous deformation, metamorphism and metasomatism affecting Isua (Greenland) ∼3700 Ma sedimentary rocks (21 citations)
- Cross-examining Earth’s oldest stromatolites: Seeing through the effects of heterogeneous deformation, metamorphism and metasomatism affecting Isua (Greenland) ∼3700 Ma sedimentary rocks (21 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
Allan R. Chivas spends much of his time researching Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry, Metamorphic facies, Oceanography and Outcrop.
Sedimentary rock is a primary field of his research addressed under Paleontology.
His study in Geochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Organic matter, Total organic carbon and Continental shelf.
His studies deal with areas such as Volcanic rock, Craton, Basement, Petrology and Sedimentary structures as well as Metamorphic facies.
His research integrates issues of Bicarbonate, Carbonate and Calcite in his study of Oceanography.
His Outcrop research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fold, Diagenesis, Metamorphism, Carbonate minerals and Stromatolite.
