Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Climate change
  • Paleontology

Oceanography, Holocene, Deglaciation, Ice sheet and Ice stream are her primary areas of study. She is interested in Last Glacial Maximum, which is a branch of Oceanography. Her Holocene research focuses on Glacial period and how it connects with Glacier and Physical geography.

Her Deglaciation research includes elements of Climate change, Paleoclimatology, Sea level and Meltwater pulse 1A. The Ice sheet study combines topics in areas such as Antarctic sea ice and Antarctic ice sheet. Her study in Ice stream is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Glacier mass balance and Geomorphology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Past and future grounding-line retreat of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (364 citations)
  • Antarctic Glacial History Since the Last Glacial Maximum: An Overview of the Record on Land (187 citations)
  • A community-based geological reconstruction of Antarctic Ice Sheet deglaciation since the Last Glacial Maximum (161 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Oceanography, Glacial period, Ice sheet, Holocene and Glacier. Her Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ice age and Radiocarbon dating. Brenda L. Hall combines subjects such as Cryosphere, Ice stream, Antarctic ice sheet, Antarctic sea ice and Paleontology with her study of Ice sheet.

Her studies in Holocene integrate themes in fields like Climatology, Guano, Raised beach, Climate change and Chronology. Her work on Ice field and Meltwater as part of general Glacier research is frequently linked to Recession, bridging the gap between disciplines. Brenda L. Hall has researched Deglaciation in several fields, including Sea level, Meltwater pulse 1A and Holocene climatic optimum.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (46.02%)
  • Glacial period (41.59%)
  • Ice sheet (35.40%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Physical geography (25.66%)
  • Glacial period (41.59%)
  • Ice sheet (35.40%)

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

Brenda L. Hall mostly deals with Physical geography, Glacial period, Ice sheet, Glacier and Paleontology. Her work in Physical geography covers topics such as Deglaciation which are related to areas like Pleistocene. Her studies examine the connections between Glacial period and genetics, as well as such issues in Chronology, with regards to Tributary.

The various areas that Brenda L. Hall examines in her Ice sheet study include Geologic record and Climatology, Atmospheric temperature. Her work carried out in the field of Glacier brings together such families of science as Sea ice and Last Glacial Maximum, Holocene. Her studies deal with areas such as Climate change and Ice field as well as Holocene.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The deglaciation of the Americas during the Last Glacial Termination (14 citations)
  • Antarctic Relic Microbial Mat Community Revealed by Metagenomics and Metatranscriptomics (14 citations)
  • Holocene glacier fluctuations on the northern flank of Cordillera Darwin, southernmost South America (9 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Glacier
  • Paleontology

Her primary areas of investigation include Holocene, Oceanography, Ice sheet, Glacier and Deglaciation. Her work on Paleoecology expands to the thematically related Oceanography. Her Ice sheet research includes elements of Cryosphere, Sea ice, Paleontology and Surface exposure dating.

Her Glacier research includes themes of Glacial period, Antarctic Cold Reversal, Last Glacial Maximum and Period. Her Deglaciation study incorporates themes from Climate change, Ice field and Stadial.
