Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock

Brad S. Singer spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Lava, Geochemistry, Geophysics and Magma. His Quaternary, Surface exposure dating and Glacial period study in the realm of Paleontology connects with subjects such as Geomagnetic reversal and Astrochronology. His research in Lava focuses on subjects like Paleomagnetism, which are connected to Secular variation.

Brad S. Singer performs integrative Geochemistry and Vein research in his work. His research in the fields of Magnetostratigraphy overlaps with other disciplines such as Geomagnetic excursion. Magma is a subfield of Volcano that Brad S. Singer studies.

His most cited work include:

  • Synoptic reconstruction of a major ancient lake system; Eocene Green River Formation, western United States (219 citations)
  • Recent investigations of the 0–5 Ma geomagnetic field recorded by lava flows (191 citations)
  • The Role of Water in Generating the Calc-alkaline Trend: New Volatile Data for Aleutian Magmas and a New Tholeiitic Index (172 citations)

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

His main research concerns Geochemistry, Paleontology, Volcano, Lava and Geochronology. His research on Paleontology often connects related areas such as Ice core. Brad S. Singer works mostly in the field of Volcano, limiting it down to concerns involving Geomorphology and, occasionally, Pleistocene.

His Lava study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Geomagnetic pole, Radiocarbon dating and Geophysics. His research in Geochronology tackles topics such as Sanidine which are related to areas like Mineralogy and Zircon. His Magma study combines topics in areas such as Caldera and Mafic.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (38.73%)
  • Paleontology (36.27%)
  • Volcano (25.98%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (38.73%)
  • Paleontology (36.27%)
  • Volcano (25.98%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Volcano, Rhyolite and Geochronology. His study in the fields of Silicic, Andesite and Zircon under the domain of Geochemistry overlaps with other disciplines such as Environmental science. Borrowing concepts from Dynamo theory, Brad S. Singer weaves in ideas under Paleontology.

His Magma and Lava study, which is part of a larger body of work in Volcano, is frequently linked to Tomography, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Magma research incorporates elements of Geomorphology, Pleistocene and Holocene. His Geochronology study incorporates themes from Earth science, Sanidine, Marine chronometer, Mineralogy and Cenomanian.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Re-evaluation of the ages of 40Ar/39Ar sanidine standards and supereruptions in the western U.S. using a Noblesse multi-collector mass spectrometer (99 citations)
  • Tectonics and cycle system of the Cretaceous Songliao Basin: An inverted active continental margin basin (84 citations)
  • Pleistocene to Holocene Growth of a Large Upper Crustal Rhyolitic Magma Reservoir beneath the Active Laguna del Maule Volcanic Field, Central Chile (36 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology

His primary areas of study are Volcano, Geochemistry, Rhyolite, Magma and Paleontology. His studies in Volcano integrate themes in fields like Outcrop and Basalt. His work deals with themes such as Late Miocene, Pleistocene and Holocene, which intersect with Geochemistry.

His Rhyolite research incorporates themes from Petrology and Geomorphology. He undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Paleontology and Excursion in his work. Brad S. Singer has researched Sedimentary rock in several fields, including Lava and Ice core.
