Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Erosion
  • Sedimentary rock

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Monsoon, Holocene, Thermoluminescence dating and Aeolian processes. His study in Isotopes of oxygen extends to Paleontology with its themes. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Glacial period, Structural basin and Physical geography.

His Holocene study combines topics in areas such as Geomorphology, Quaternary, Interglacial and Fluvial. The various areas that Ashok K. Singhvi examines in his Thermoluminescence dating study include Sediment, Paleoclimatology and Loess. His Sediment study incorporates themes from Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry, Sand dune stabilization and Thermoluminescence.

His most cited work include:

  • Thermoluminescence dating of sand dunes in Rajasthan, India (210 citations)
  • Late Pleistocene and Holocene dune activity and wind regimes in the western Sahara Desert of Mauritania (179 citations)
  • Investigations into the potential effects of pedoturbation on luminescence dating (154 citations)

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

Ashok K. Singhvi focuses on Thermoluminescence dating, Paleontology, Geomorphology, Thermoluminescence and Geochemistry. His work deals with themes such as Geoarchaeology, Radiocarbon dating, Loess and Interglacial, which intersect with Thermoluminescence dating. His studies deal with areas such as Monsoon, Quaternary and Holocene as well as Geomorphology.

His study in Quaternary is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Alluvium and Fluvial. The Thermoluminescence study combines topics in areas such as Optically stimulated luminescence and Meteorite. He focuses mostly in the field of Geochemistry, narrowing it down to matters related to Sediment and, in some cases, Hydrology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Thermoluminescence dating (34.98%)
  • Paleontology (23.65%)
  • Geomorphology (20.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Thermoluminescence dating (34.98%)
  • Optically stimulated luminescence (8.87%)
  • Thermoluminescence (23.15%)

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

Ashok K. Singhvi mainly focuses on Thermoluminescence dating, Optically stimulated luminescence, Thermoluminescence, Quaternary and Archaeology. His work in Thermoluminescence dating covers topics such as Geoarchaeology which are related to areas like Rock art and Archaeological science. His Optically stimulated luminescence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Atmosphere, Daylight and Mineralogy.

His research integrates issues of Full width at half maximum and Meteorite in his study of Thermoluminescence. His Quaternary research entails a greater understanding of Paleontology. His study looks at the relationship between Geomorphology and fields such as Geochemistry, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Continuity of Microblade Technology in the Indian Subcontinent Since 45 ka: Implications for the Dispersal of Modern Humans (40 citations)
  • Methodological studies on luminescence dating of volcanic ashes (38 citations)
  • The INQUA Dunes Atlas chronologic database (36 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Erosion
  • Sedimentary rock

Ashok K. Singhvi mainly investigates Thermoluminescence dating, Archaeology, Fluvial, Quaternary and Paleontology. His Thermoluminescence dating study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Blade and Volcano, Volcanic ash. His Fluvial research incorporates elements of Glacial period, Floodplain, Ephemeral key and Civilization.

His work carried out in the field of Quaternary brings together such families of science as Sand dune stabilization, Radiocarbon dating, Pleistocene and Holocene. The study of Holocene is intertwined with the study of Chronology in a number of ways. His research in Paleontology intersects with topics in Sinuosity and Geomorphology.
