Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Ecology
  • Oxygen

David L. Valentine mainly focuses on Ecology, Hydrocarbon, Methane, Environmental chemistry and Deepwater horizon. His Ecology research integrates issues from Evolutionary biology, Microbial ecology and Archaea. The concepts of his Hydrocarbon study are interwoven with issues in Bloom, Deep sea, Microbial population biology, Oxygen and Propane.

His study looks at the relationship between Methane and topics such as Equilibrium fractionation, which overlap with Methanothermobacter marburgensis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Carbon, Petroleum, Water column and Weathering. David L. Valentine works mostly in the field of Deepwater horizon, limiting it down to topics relating to Seawater and, in certain cases, Water pollution, as a part of the same area of interest.

His most cited work include:

  • Functional metagenomic profiling of nine biomes (740 citations)
  • Fate of Dispersants Associated with the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill (573 citations)
  • Adaptations to energy stress dictate the ecology and evolution of the Archaea. (505 citations)

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

David L. Valentine focuses on Methane, Environmental chemistry, Hydrocarbon, Oceanography and Ecology. His study in the field of Anaerobic oxidation of methane also crosses realms of TRACER. His studies deal with areas such as Fractionation, Carbon, Sediment and Petroleum as well as Environmental chemistry.

His studies examine the connections between Hydrocarbon and genetics, as well as such issues in Deepwater horizon, with regards to Petroleum engineering. His work focuses on many connections between Oceanography and other disciplines, such as Petroleum seep, that overlap with his field of interest in Geochemistry and Coal oil. His Ecology research incorporates themes from Microbial ecology and Archaea.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Methane (19.79%)
  • Environmental chemistry (18.23%)
  • Hydrocarbon (15.10%)

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

  • Environmental chemistry (18.23%)
  • Hydrocarbon (15.10%)
  • Genome (4.69%)

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

David L. Valentine mostly deals with Environmental chemistry, Hydrocarbon, Genome, Methane and Genetics. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Deep sea, Wax, Anaerobic oxidation of methane, Nutrient and Isotopes of oxygen. His Hydrocarbon study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Petroleum seep, Biodegradation, Deepwater horizon, Pentadecane and Petroleum.

His Genome study combines topics in areas such as Adaptation, Nanoarchaeota and Archaea. As part of the same scientific family, David L. Valentine usually focuses on Archaea, concentrating on Microbiome and intersecting with Bacteria. As a part of the same scientific family, David L. Valentine mostly works in the field of Methane, focusing on Biogeochemistry and, on occasion, Greenhouse gas, Carbon cycle, Natural gas and Earth science.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Persistence and biodegradation of oil at the ocean floor following Deepwater Horizon (57 citations)
  • Retroelement-guided protein diversification abounds in vast lineages of Bacteria and Archaea (43 citations)
  • Methane clumped isotopes: Progress and potential for a new isotopic tracer (39 citations)
