Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Erosion

Christopher R. Fielding mostly deals with Paleontology, Facies, Permian, Paleozoic and Geomorphology. His Paleontology study frequently links to related topics such as Ice sheet. Christopher R. Fielding has included themes like Sedimentary depositional environment, Rift, Coal measures and Graben in his Facies study.

His work deals with themes such as Ichnology, Phanerozoic and Sea level, which intersect with Permian. The concepts of his Paleozoic study are interwoven with issues in Ice age, Glacial period, Earth science and Carboniferous. His Geomorphology research incorporates themes from Geochemistry, Geologic record and Lamination.

His most cited work include:

  • Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy (883 citations)
  • Reply to the comments of W. Helland-Hansen on "Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy" by Catuneanu et al. (Earth-Sciences Review 92(2009)1-33) (812 citations)
  • CO2-Forced Climate and Vegetation Instability During Late Paleozoic Deglaciation (351 citations)

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

Christopher R. Fielding focuses on Paleontology, Facies, Permian, Sedimentary depositional environment and Geomorphology. His work in Structural basin, Paleozoic, Glacial period, Sedimentary rock and Ice age is related to Paleontology. His Paleozoic study combines topics in areas such as Pennsylvanian and Carboniferous.

Christopher R. Fielding has researched Facies in several fields, including Coal measures and Fluvial. He interconnects Conglomerate, Coal and Cretaceous in the investigation of issues within Sedimentary depositional environment. His work carried out in the field of Geomorphology brings together such families of science as Geochemistry and Earth science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (50.74%)
  • Facies (24.63%)
  • Permian (19.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Paleontology (50.74%)
  • Permian (19.49%)
  • Sedimentary depositional environment (18.75%)

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

Christopher R. Fielding spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Permian, Sedimentary depositional environment, Structural basin and Geochemistry. His work on Paleontology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Climate change. His Permian study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Floristics, Timeline and Ecosystem.

His Sedimentary depositional environment research incorporates themes from Thermochronology, Rift and Facies. His Facies study combines topics in areas such as Outcrop and Downcutting, Fluvial. His work in Geochemistry addresses issues such as Glacial period, which are connected to fields such as Cementation and Cenozoic.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Age and pattern of the southern high-latitude continental end-Permian extinction constrained by multiproxy analysis (68 citations)
  • The role of discharge variability in the formation and preservation of alluvial sediment bodies (57 citations)
  • End-Permian (252 Mya) deforestation, wildfires and flooding—An ancient biotic crisis with lessons for the present (32 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Erosion

Christopher R. Fielding mainly investigates Paleontology, Structural basin, Permian–Triassic extinction event, Permian and Facies. His Paleontology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ecological succession, Architecture and Terrestrial ecosystem. His studies deal with areas such as Carbon cycle, Vegetation and Acritarch as well as Permian.

His research integrates issues of Sedimentary depositional environment, Alluvium, Sedimentary rock and Fluvial in his study of Facies. His Sedimentary depositional environment research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Downcutting, Outcrop, Diachronous, Sequence and Sea level. His work investigates the relationship between Climate change and topics such as Glacial period that intersect with problems in Geochemistry.
