Overview

Dieter Korn is affiliated with the Museum für Naturkunde in Germany and has made significant contributions to the field of Earth and Planetary Sciences, with a particular focus on paleontology. Their research spans various subfields, including paleontology, atmospheric science, ecology, evolution, behavior and systematics, oceanography, and earth-surface processes.

Their work primarily addresses topics such as paleontology and stratigraphy of fossils, geology and paleoclimatology research, paleontology and evolutionary biology, evolution and paleontology studies, cephalopods and marine biology, marine biology and ecology research, and geological formations and processes.

Korn has published extensively in several scientific journals. The most frequent venues include:

  • European Journal of Taxonomy
  • Neues Jahrbuch für Geologie und Paläontologie - Abhandlungen
  • Palaeobiodiversity and Palaeoenvironments
  • Fossil record
  • Palaeontology

Recent papers authored or co-authored by Dieter Korn cover a range of paleontological and geological topics, including:

  • The higher taxonomic nomenclature of Devonian to Cretaceous ammonoids and Jurassic to Cretaceous ammonites including their authorship and publication, 2022, Neues Jahrbuch für Geologie und Paläontologie - Abhandlungen
  • Aras Valley (northwest Iran): high-resolution stratigraphy of a continuous central Tethyan Permian-Triassic boundary section, 2020, Fossil record
  • New and revised small shelly fossil record from the lower Cambrian of northern Iran, 2021, Papers in Palaeontology
  • Gradual warming prior to the end-Permian mass extinction, 2022, Palaeontology
  • The Devonian-Carboniferous boundary in the Carnic Alps (Austria and Italy), 2020, Palaeobiodiversity and Palaeoenvironments

Korn's research collaborations include frequent co-authorship with several scientists, notably:

  • Abbas Ghaderi
  • Jana Gliwa
  • Jürgen Bockwinkel
  • Christian Klug
  • Ulrich Struck

Their body of work contributes to a nuanced understanding of various aspects of paleontology, stratigraphy, and related geological and biological fields. Korn's research output reflects a sustained engagement with topics that intersect paleontological taxonomy, the stratigraphy of marine fossils, and global paleoclimatic events.
