1998 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Glacier
  • Composite material

His main research concerns Ice core, Ice sheet, Physical geography, Ice stream and Oceanography. His study brings together the fields of Greenland Ice Sheet Project and Ice core. The various areas that he examines in his Ice sheet study include Sea ice and Mineralogy.

He has researched Physical geography in several fields, including Younger Dryas, Glacial period, Holocene, Paleoclimatology and Groenlandia. His work deals with themes such as Antarctic ice sheet and Geomorphology, which intersect with Ice stream. His research integrates issues of Ice shelf and Sea ice thickness in his study of Antarctic sea ice.

His most cited work include:

  • Abrupt increase in Greenland snow accumulation at the end of the Younger Dryas event (1000 citations)
  • The Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 depth-age scale : Methods and results (435 citations)
  • Record of Volcanism Since 7000 B.C. from the GISP2 Greenland Ice Core and Implications for the Volcano-Climate System. (368 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Sea ice, Ice sheet, Oceanography, Ice core and Sea ice thickness. His Ice sheet research incorporates themes from Ice stream, Ice divide, Pancake ice, Geophysics and Antarctic ice sheet. His Ice core study incorporates themes from Volcano, European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica, Greenland Ice Sheet Project, Physical geography and Dome.

His research on Physical geography also deals with topics like

  • Paleoclimatology that intertwine with fields like Glaciology,
  • Groenlandia which intersects with area such as Quaternary. In his study, Snow is inextricably linked to Atmospheric sciences, which falls within the broad field of Arctic ice pack. His Sea ice growth processes research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hydrology and Mineralogy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Sea ice (47.75%)
  • Ice sheet (36.94%)
  • Oceanography (31.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1996-2016)?

  • Sea ice (47.75%)
  • Ice core (27.03%)
  • Ice sheet (36.94%)

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

Anthony J. Gow mostly deals with Sea ice, Ice core, Ice sheet, Sea ice thickness and Oceanography. His Sea ice research integrates issues from Atmospheric sciences and Remote sensing. Anthony J. Gow interconnects Greenland Ice Sheet Project, Geochemistry, Physical geography and Dome, Geomorphology in the investigation of issues within Ice core.

Anthony J. Gow has included themes like Proxy, Paleoclimatology, Pleistocene, Groenlandia and Holocene in his Physical geography study. His Ice sheet research incorporates elements of Bedrock and Earth science. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Structural basin and Clay minerals.

Between 1996 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • The Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 depth-age scale : Methods and results (435 citations)
  • Visual‐stratigraphic dating of the GISP2 ice core: Basis, reproducibility, and application (191 citations)
  • The Holocene-Younger Dryas Transition Recorded at Summit, Greenland (157 citations)

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

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Composite material

His primary scientific interests are in Ice core, Greenland Ice Sheet Project, Ice sheet, Physical geography and Groenlandia. His Ice core study is associated with Oceanography. His study looks at the relationship between Greenland Ice Sheet Project and topics such as Geomorphology, which overlap with Ice stream, Pressure ridge, Dye 3 and Pancake ice.

His Ice sheet study combines topics in areas such as Proxy and Mineralogy. His work carried out in the field of Physical geography brings together such families of science as Paleoclimatology and Pleistocene. In his research, European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica, Dendrochronology and Glacial period is intimately related to Holocene, which falls under the overarching field of Groenlandia.
