Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Archaeology
  • Agriculture

His primary scientific interests are in Civilization, Bronze Age, Radiocarbon dating, Chronology and Ancient history. His Civilization study incorporates themes from Global warming, Climate change, Paleoclimatology and Iron Age. David Kaniewski interconnects Mediterranean climate, Radiometric dating and Historical archaeology in the investigation of issues within Bronze Age.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Mediterranean climate, Steppe are connected with Holocene and other disciplines. His Chronology research incorporates elements of Linkage, Famine, Proximate and ultimate causation and Hittite language. His work on Ancient literature as part of general Ancient history research is often related to Paleobotany, thus linking different fields of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Environmental Roots of the Late Bronze Age Crisis (103 citations)
  • Environmental Roots of the Late Bronze Age Crisis (103 citations)
  • Environmental Roots of the Late Bronze Age Crisis (103 citations)

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

David Kaniewski mainly investigates Holocene, Mediterranean climate, Ecology, Climate change and Vegetation. His Holocene research integrates issues from Climatology, Physical geography and Progradation. His Mediterranean climate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Storm, Little ice age and Iron Age.

The various areas that he examines in his Climate change study include Bronze Age, Prosperity, Marsh and Precipitation. The concepts of his Bronze Age study are interwoven with issues in Famine, Radiocarbon dating and Chronology. David Kaniewski focuses mostly in the field of Chronology, narrowing it down to matters related to Linkage and, in some cases, Civilization.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Holocene (48.54%)
  • Mediterranean climate (65.05%)
  • Ecology (51.46%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2020)?

  • Holocene (48.54%)
  • Climate change (46.60%)
  • Physical geography (34.95%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Holocene, Climate change, Physical geography, Mediterranean climate and Ecology. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Holocene, focusing on Sedimentary depositional environment and, on occasion, Vegetation dynamics and Palynology. His Climate change study combines topics in areas such as Social change, Livelihood and Mediterranean Basin.

David Kaniewski has included themes like Pollen, Global warming, Vegetation, Demographic change and Balearic islands in his Physical geography study. He combines subjects such as Bronze Age, Aridification, Precipitation, Iron Age and Demise with his study of Mediterranean climate. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Natural and Prehistory.

Between 2018 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Holocene landscape dynamics and long-term population trends in the Levant: (17 citations)
  • Pollen-inferred regional vegetation patterns and demographic change in Southern Anatolia through the Holocene: (16 citations)
  • Cold and dry outbreaks in the eastern Mediterranean 3200 years ago (8 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Archaeology
  • Agriculture

Physical geography, Holocene, Pollen, Climate change and Radiocarbon dating are his primary areas of study. David Kaniewski combines subjects such as Land cover, Human population dynamics, Demographic change and Land use, land-use change and forestry with his study of Physical geography. His Climate change research entails a greater understanding of Ecology.

He interconnects Woodland, Vegetation, Wetland and Grassland in the investigation of issues within Radiocarbon dating.
