Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Isotopes of oxygen, Oceanography, Plateau, Paleontology and δ18O. The concepts of his Isotopes of oxygen study are interwoven with issues in Environmental chemistry, Aragonite, Meteoric water and Isotopes of carbon. In his work, Ecology, Pleistocene and Seasonality is strongly intertwined with Northern Hemisphere, which is a subfield of Environmental chemistry.

In the field of Oceanography, his study on Monsoon, Holocene and Estuary overlaps with subjects such as Context. David L. Dettman has included themes like East Asian Monsoon and Graben in his Plateau study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Isotope analysis, Chione and Sclerochronology.

His most cited work include:

  • Seasonal stable isotope evidence for a strong Asian monsoon throughout the past 10.7 m.y (282 citations)
  • Atlantic Forcing of Persistent Drought in West Africa (269 citations)
  • Controls on the stable isotope composition of seasonal growth bands in aragonitic fresh-water bivalves (unionidae) (266 citations)

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

David L. Dettman mostly deals with Oceanography, Isotopes of oxygen, Paleontology, δ18O and Environmental science. His work deals with themes such as Meteoric water, Diagenesis and Isotopes of carbon, which intersect with Isotopes of oxygen. His Isotopes of carbon study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry and Aragonite.

As a member of one scientific family, David L. Dettman mostly works in the field of Paleontology, focusing on Plateau and, on occasion, Graben. While the research belongs to areas of δ18O, David L. Dettman spends his time largely on the problem of δ13C, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Otolith. His study in Monsoon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate change and Physical geography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (31.25%)
  • Isotopes of oxygen (20.63%)
  • Paleontology (16.25%)

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

  • Oceanography (31.25%)
  • Monsoon (11.25%)
  • Environmental science (18.13%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Monsoon, Environmental science, Environmental chemistry and δ13C. Coral is the focus of his Oceanography research. David L. Dettman has researched Monsoon in several fields, including Cactus, Radiocarbon dating, Climate change, Physical geography and Threatened species.

His Physical geography research incorporates themes from Arid, East Asian Monsoon and Pleistocene. The study incorporates disciplines such as Pelagic zone, δ18O, Provenance and Benthic zone in addition to δ13C. He combines subjects such as Tuna, Otolith, Seawater, Isotopes of oxygen and Upwelling with his study of δ18O.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The role of the westerlies and orography in Asian hydroclimate since the late Oligocene (10 citations)
  • Freshwater plumes and brackish lakes: Integrated microfossil and O-C-Sr isotopic evidence from the late Miocene and early Pliocene Bouse Formation (California-Arizona) supports a lake overflow model for the integration of the lower Colorado River corridor (10 citations)
  • Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediment cores from lakes Shinji and Nakaumi, SW Japan: A proxy of recent fire events in the watershed (5 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock

His main research concerns Brackish water, Oceanography, Stomatal conductance, Environmental chemistry and Anoxic waters. His studies in Oceanography integrate themes in fields like Biodiversity, Pleistocene, Quaternary, Late Miocene and River corridor. David L. Dettman interconnects Subtropics, Ecology, Spine, Taxon and Spatial ecology in the investigation of issues within Stomatal conductance.

Environmental chemistry and Environmental science are two areas of study in which David L. Dettman engages in interdisciplinary research. Anoxic waters is closely attributed to Sediment in his work.
