Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Sediment

Daniel R. Parsons spends much of his time researching Sediment transport, Flow, Sediment, Geotechnical engineering and Turbulence. His study in Sediment transport focuses on Bedform in particular. His Flow research includes elements of Sedimentology, Submarine and Fluvial.

His studies in Sediment integrate themes in fields like Sand dune stabilization, Seafloor spreading and Turbidity current. The various areas that Daniel R. Parsons examines in his Geotechnical engineering study include Sedimentary rock, Flow separation, Communication channel and Subaerial. His research brings together the fields of Geomorphology and Turbulence.

His most cited work include:

  • Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs): Their past, present and future contributions to the advancement of marine geoscience (405 citations)
  • Morphology and flow fields of three‐dimensional dunes, Rio Paraná, Argentina: Results from simultaneous multibeam echo sounding and acoustic Doppler current profiling (173 citations)
  • Flow in meander bends with recirculation at the inner bank (169 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Geomorphology, Hydrology, Sediment, Sediment transport and Bedform. His Geomorphology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Acoustic Doppler current profiler and Turbulence. He studies Hydrology, namely Hydrology.

His Sediment research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Current, Oceanography, Erosion and Turbidity current. His research investigates the connection between Sediment transport and topics such as Geotechnical engineering that intersect with issues in Submarine. His study ties his expertise on Bed load together with the subject of Bedform.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geomorphology (25.65%)
  • Hydrology (24.03%)
  • Sediment (21.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Sediment (21.75%)
  • Hydrology (24.03%)
  • Geomorphology (25.65%)

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

Sediment, Hydrology, Geomorphology, Sediment transport and Turbidity current are his primary areas of study. His Sediment research integrates issues from Oceanography, Total organic carbon and Erosion. His work on Sand mining and River source as part of general Hydrology study is frequently connected to Mekong delta and Vietnamese, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

In the field of Geomorphology, his study on Bedform, Alluvium and Fluvial overlaps with subjects such as Architecture. His Bedform study combines topics in areas such as Bed load, Volcanic hazards, Outcrop, Turbulence and Submarine. His study in Sediment transport is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Current, Tidal power, Flow and Soil science.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • River bank instability from unsustainable sand mining in the lower Mekong River (24 citations)
  • Dunes in the world’s big rivers are characterized by low-angle lee-side slopes and a complex shape (18 citations)
  • What determines the downstream evolution of turbidity currents (14 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Sediment

Daniel R. Parsons mostly deals with Sediment, Sediment transport, Geomorphology, Turbidity current and Flow. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil science, Total organic carbon, Erosion and Submarine. Daniel R. Parsons has included themes like Hydrology, Alluvial river, Channel and Current in his Sediment transport study.

Daniel R. Parsons works in the field of Geomorphology, focusing on Bedform in particular. While the research belongs to areas of Turbidity current, Daniel R. Parsons spends his time largely on the problem of Canyon, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Submarine pipeline. In the subject of general Flow, his work in Flume is often linked to Turbine, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
