2013 - Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Sediment

His primary scientific interests are in Contourite, Facies, Paleontology, Sedimentary depositional environment and Geomorphology. His research integrates issues of Oceanography, Bathymetry, Oceanic basin and Continental margin in his study of Contourite. The study incorporates disciplines such as Geochemistry, Deposition, Fine grained sediments and Outflow in addition to Facies.

His study on Sedimentary rock, Ordovician and Sedimentology is often connected to Classification of discontinuities as part of broader study in Paleontology. His work in Sedimentary depositional environment tackles topics such as Turbidite which are related to areas like Silt, Canyon and Turbidity. In general Geomorphology, his work in Turbidity current and Abyssal plain is often linked to Flow velocity linking many areas of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Seismic features diagnostic of contourite drifts (463 citations)
  • Deep-water facies, processes and models: a review and classification scheme for modern and ancient sediments (334 citations)
  • Sequence of structures in fine-grained turbidites: Comparison of recent deep-sea and ancient flysch sediments (283 citations)

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

His main research concerns Contourite, Paleontology, Oceanography, Geomorphology and Facies. His Contourite research is within the category of Sedimentary depositional environment. His Oceanography research includes themes of Mediterranean climate, Sedimentation and Abyssal plain.

His Geomorphology research integrates issues from Continental shelf and Bathymetry. His research in Facies intersects with topics in Geochemistry, Petrology and Flysch. In his study, Silt is inextricably linked to Turbidite, which falls within the broad field of Turbidity current.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Contourite (41.18%)
  • Paleontology (37.02%)
  • Oceanography (23.88%)

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

  • Contourite (41.18%)
  • Paleontology (37.02%)
  • Sedimentary depositional environment (24.91%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Contourite, Paleontology, Sedimentary depositional environment, Facies and Sedimentary rock. His Contourite research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Deposition, Oceanography, Bedform and Continental margin. Within one scientific family, Dorrik A. V. Stow focuses on topics pertaining to Quaternary under Sedimentary depositional environment, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Provenance.

His study in Facies is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fluvial, Petrology, Turbidite and Flysch. His Turbidite research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Continental shelf and Turbidity current. His studies in Sedimentary rock integrate themes in fields like Structural basin, Late Miocene, Calcilutite, Sediment and Canyon.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sandy contourite drift in the late Miocene Rifian Corridor (Morocco): Reconstruction of depositional environments in a foreland-basin seaway (31 citations)
  • Textural characteristics and facies of sand‐rich contourite depositional systems (21 citations)
  • Distinguishing between deep-water sediment facies: Turbidites, contourites and hemipelagites (17 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Sediment

Dorrik A. V. Stow focuses on Contourite, Facies, Sedimentary rock, Sedimentary depositional environment and Geochemistry. His Contourite study is concerned with the larger field of Paleontology. His study in Paleontology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Continental shelf, Ecological succession and Outflow.

In Facies, Dorrik A. V. Stow works on issues like Sediment, which are connected to Ichnofacies. His biological study deals with issues like Calcarenite, which deal with fields such as Thalassinoides and Petrology. His Sedimentary depositional environment research incorporates elements of Foreland basin, Clastic rock, Late Miocene, Mediterranean sea and Geostrophic current.
