What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Basalt
His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Proterozoic, Snowball Earth, Glacial period and Cap carbonate.
His study in Facies, Siliciclastic, Craton, Zircon and Sedimentary rock is carried out as part of his Paleontology studies.
The various areas that Anthony R. Prave examines in his Facies study include Rift and Laurentia.
As part of one scientific family, Anthony R. Prave deals mainly with the area of Proterozoic, narrowing it down to issues related to the Precambrian, and often Dalradian, Carbonate rock, Metamorphism and Greenschist.
As part of the same scientific family, Anthony R. Prave usually focuses on Snowball Earth, concentrating on Marinoan glaciation and intersecting with Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point and Sturtian glaciation.
His Glacial period study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Diamictite.
His most cited work include:
- Two or four Neoproterozoic glaciations (330 citations)
- Two diamictites, two cap carbonates, two δ13C excursions, two rifts: The Neoproterozoic Kingston Peak Formation, Death Valley, California (149 citations)
- Life on land in the Proterozoic: Evidence from the Torridonian rocks of northwest Scotland (146 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Anthony R. Prave mainly focuses on Paleontology, Geochemistry, Sedimentary rock, Glacial period and Facies.
His Paleontology study focuses mostly on Laurentia, Foreland basin, Diamictite, Dalradian and Cap carbonate.
The Geochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Craton and Proterozoic.
Anthony R. Prave works mostly in the field of Sedimentary rock, limiting it down to topics relating to Greenstone belt and, in certain cases, Volcanic rock.
His Glacial period research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Oceanography and Paleoclimatology.
His Facies research incorporates elements of Rift, Orogeny, Molasse and Sequence.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (49.21%)
- Geochemistry (34.92%)
- Sedimentary rock (18.25%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Geochemistry (34.92%)
- Sedimentary rock (18.25%)
- Great Oxygenation Event (7.94%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Anthony R. Prave mostly deals with Geochemistry, Sedimentary rock, Great Oxygenation Event, Mafic and δ34S.
His work on Zircon as part of general Geochemistry study is frequently linked to Lewisian complex, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Anthony R. Prave interconnects Schist, Sulfur cycle, Sequence, Facies and Continental margin in the investigation of issues within Sedimentary rock.
His Great Oxygenation Event research includes themes of Nitrate and Anoxic waters.
His research in Mafic focuses on subjects like Magmatism, which are connected to Igneous rock, Dike, Meteoric water, Gabbro and Metamorphic rock.
His Snowball Earth study is focused on Glacial period and Paleontology.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Two-billion-year-old evaporites capture Earth's great oxidation. (62 citations)
- The Great Oxidation Event preceded a Paleoproterozoic “snowball Earth” (17 citations)
- Crustal reworking and orogenic styles inferred from zircon Hf isotopes: Proterozoic examples from the North Atlantic region (15 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Basalt
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Mafic, Great Oxygenation Event, Snowball Earth and Sedimentary rock.
In the subject of general Geochemistry, his work in Petrography is often linked to Shungite, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
He combines subjects such as Dike, Magmatism, Meteoric water and Amphibole with his study of Mafic.
His Great Oxygenation Event study is focused on Paleontology in general.
His Snowball Earth study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Climate change, Igneous rock and Archean.
His Sedimentary rock research incorporates themes from Organic matter and Total organic carbon.
