Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Statistics

Andrew D. Miall mostly deals with Paleontology, Fluvial, Sequence stratigraphy, Geomorphology and Facies. As part of his studies on Paleontology, Andrew D. Miall often connects relevant areas like Markov chain. His Fluvial research includes elements of Sedimentary rock, Alluvial fan, Outcrop, Petrology and Sinuosity.

In his study, Standardization and Stratigraphic section is inextricably linked to Stratigraphy, which falls within the broad field of Sequence stratigraphy. His Geomorphology research focuses on Geochemistry and how it relates to Fluvial landforms of streams and Fluvial system. Andrew D. Miall combines subjects such as Sedimentary depositional environment and Glacial period with his study of Facies.

His most cited work include:

  • Architectural-Element Analysis: A New Method of Facies Analysis Applied to Fluvial Deposits (1428 citations)
  • A review of the braided-river depositional environment (1363 citations)
  • The Geology of Fluvial Deposits: Sedimentary Facies, Basin Analysis, and Petroleum Geology (1252 citations)

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

His main research concerns Paleontology, Fluvial, Facies, Geomorphology and Sequence stratigraphy. Foreland basin, Sedimentary rock, Sedimentary depositional environment, Structural basin and Sequence are the primary areas of interest in his Paleontology study. He interconnects Channel, Sinuosity and Petrology in the investigation of issues within Fluvial.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Geochemistry, Alluvial fan and Stratigraphy in addition to Facies. He is studying Bedform, which is a component of Geomorphology. The various areas that Andrew D. Miall examines in his Sequence stratigraphy study include Section and Stratigraphy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (57.60%)
  • Fluvial (26.73%)
  • Facies (22.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Paleontology (57.60%)
  • Sequence stratigraphy (17.51%)
  • Foreland basin (17.51%)

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

Andrew D. Miall focuses on Paleontology, Sequence stratigraphy, Foreland basin, Fluvial and Facies. His Sequence, Geologic time scale, Continental margin, Stratigraphy and Sedimentary rock investigations are all subjects of Paleontology research. His work in Sedimentary rock covers topics such as Sedimentary depositional environment which are related to areas like Outcrop, Geologic record and Geochemistry.

His work carried out in the field of Foreland basin brings together such families of science as Sedimentary basin and Stratigraphy. His Fluvial research is included under the broader classification of Geomorphology. His Facies research integrates issues from Petrology and Scale.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy (883 citations)
  • Reply to the comments of W. Helland-Hansen on "Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy" by Catuneanu et al. (Earth-Sciences Review 92(2009)1-33) (812 citations)
  • Sequence stratigraphy: methodology and nomenclature (467 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Statistics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Sequence stratigraphy, Facies, Sedimentary depositional environment and Stratigraphy. His Sequence stratigraphy study is associated with Sequence. His studies examine the connections between Facies and genetics, as well as such issues in Petrology, with regards to Fluvial system and Fluvial.

His Fluvial study is concerned with Geomorphology in general. His studies in Sedimentary depositional environment integrate themes in fields like Sedimentary rock, Outcrop, Erg and Subsidence. His biological study deals with issues like Cenomanian, which deal with fields such as Period, Lithosphere and Erosion.
