Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Paleontology

Her primary areas of study are Oceanography, Holocene, Ice sheet, Sea ice and Deglaciation. Amy Leventer interconnects Meltwater and Sediment in the investigation of issues within Oceanography. Her research investigates the connection between Holocene and topics such as Radiocarbon dating that intersect with problems in Sedimentary rock and Deposition.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Antarctic sea ice and Ice stream. Her Sea ice research focuses on Holocene climatic optimum and how it relates to Climatology, Proxy, Circumpolar deep water, Westerlies and Climate model. Her work carried out in the field of Deglaciation brings together such families of science as Antarctic ice sheet, Meltwater pulse 1A and Ice-sheet model.

Her most cited work include:

  • Marine Ecosystem Sensitivity to Climate Change (250 citations)
  • Stability of the Larsen B ice shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula during the Holocene epoch (247 citations)
  • Rapid and early export of Phaeocystis antarctica blooms in the Ross Sea, Antarctica (244 citations)

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

Amy Leventer mainly focuses on Oceanography, Sea ice, Diatom, Holocene and Ice shelf. The various areas that Amy Leventer examines in her Oceanography study include Glacial period and Peninsula. Amy Leventer has researched Diatom in several fields, including Terrigenous sediment, Sediment trap, Water column and Chaetoceros.

The Holocene study combines topics in areas such as Climate change, Climatology, Radiocarbon dating and Pleistocene. Her Ice shelf study combines topics in areas such as Sediment, Ecosystem and Physical geography. Amy Leventer combines subjects such as Paleontology, Deglaciation, Ice stream and Antarctic ice sheet with her study of Ice sheet.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (72.34%)
  • Sea ice (29.79%)
  • Diatom (23.40%)

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

  • Oceanography (72.34%)
  • Glacial period (19.15%)
  • Sea ice (29.79%)

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

Amy Leventer focuses on Oceanography, Glacial period, Sea ice, Ice shelf and Holocene. The study incorporates disciplines such as Glacier and Peninsula in addition to Oceanography. Her study in Glacial period is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Continental shelf, Circumpolar deep water, Antarctic ice sheet and Ice sheet.

Her Sea ice study incorporates themes from Oceanic carbon cycle, Lorica, Tintinnid, Chaetoceros and Trophic level. Her Ice shelf research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Total organic carbon, Petrology, Detritus and Radiocarbon dating. Her Holocene research incorporates themes from Foraminifera, Sedimentary rock and Cryosphere.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Initiation and long-term instability of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (46 citations)
  • Environmental drivers of benthic communities and habitat heterogeneity on an East Antarctic shelf (15 citations)
  • Past ice stream and ice sheet changes on the continental shelf off the Sabrina Coast, East Antarctica (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Paleontology

Her primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Glacial period, Iceberg, Ice shelf and Sea ice. Her work on Benthic zone as part of general Oceanography research is frequently linked to Environmental science, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her Glacial period research includes elements of Glacier, Continental shelf, Antarctic ice sheet and Ice sheet.

Her studies deal with areas such as Drumlin, Deglaciation, Antarctic Cold Reversal, Interglacial and Ice core as well as Iceberg. Her research in Ice shelf intersects with topics in Total organic carbon, Radiocarbon dating, Sediment, Detritus and Geochemistry. In Sea ice, Amy Leventer works on issues like Lorica, which are connected to Diatom.
