Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Archaeology
  • Pleistocene

His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Pleistocene, Archaeology, Structural basin and Fluvial. Paleontology is closely attributed to Cave in his research. Christophe Falguères works mostly in the field of Pleistocene, limiting it down to concerns involving Cenozoic and, occasionally, Chronostratigraphy and Geochemistry.

His research related to Prehistory and Assemblage might be considered part of Archaeology. His study in Structural basin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Paleomagnetism and Early Pleistocene. His research in Fluvial intersects with topics in Alluvium, Quartz and Quaternary, Interglacial.

His most cited work include:

  • Neandertal roots: Cranial and chronological evidence from Sima de los Huesos. (249 citations)
  • The oldest human fossil in Europe, from Orce (Spain). (154 citations)
  • Pleistocene fluvial terraces from northern France (Seine, Yonne, Somme): synthesis, and new results from interglacial deposits (142 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Archaeology, Paleontology, Pleistocene, Series and Quaternary. His Archaeology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sequence and Geochronology. His Sequence research focuses on subjects like Sedimentary rock, which are linked to Mineralogy.

His work in Paleontology addresses subjects such as Cave, which are connected to disciplines such as Sequence stratigraphy. In his study, Terrace and Quartz is inextricably linked to Fluvial, which falls within the broad field of Pleistocene. His Quaternary research includes elements of Geochemistry, Chronostratigraphy and Cenozoic.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Archaeology (45.71%)
  • Paleontology (41.43%)
  • Pleistocene (40.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Archaeology (45.71%)
  • Pleistocene (40.00%)
  • Paleontology (41.43%)

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

Christophe Falguères mostly deals with Archaeology, Pleistocene, Paleontology, Series and Chronology. His Archaeology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sedimentary rock, Faunal assemblage and Radiometric dating. His Pleistocene research includes themes of Fluvial terrace, Fluvial, Biostratigraphy, Sequence and Geochronology.

His Series study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Volcano and Homo neanderthalensis. While the research belongs to areas of Chronology, Christophe Falguères spends his time largely on the problem of Prehistory, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Upper Paleolithic. The Early Pleistocene study combines topics in areas such as Paleomagnetism and Cave.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • New radiometric dates on the lowest stratigraphical section (TD1 to TD6) of Gran Dolina site (Atapuerca, Spain) (57 citations)
  • Earliest known hominin activity in the Philippines by 709 thousand years ago (52 citations)
  • A Human Deciduous Tooth and New 40Ar/39Ar Dating Results from the Middle Pleistocene Archaeological Site of Isernia La Pineta, Southern Italy. (51 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Archaeology
  • Pleistocene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Archaeology, Paleontology, Pleistocene, Marine isotope stage and Early Pleistocene. His Archaeology research integrates issues from Series, Fluvial terrace and Geochronology. Sequence, Biostratigraphy, Sedimentary rock, Radiometric dating and Sequence stratigraphy are the subjects of his Paleontology studies.

Christophe Falguères has researched Pleistocene in several fields, including Excavation and Fluvial. His Early Pleistocene research incorporates elements of Paleomagnetism and Cave. Christophe Falguères interconnects Glacial period, Quaternary, Interglacial, Acheulean and Stratovolcano in the investigation of issues within Homo heidelbergensis.
