Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Archaeology
  • Ecology
  • Paleontology

Fiona Brock focuses on Radiocarbon dating, Archaeology, Chronology, Evolutionary biology and Genetics. Her research in Radiocarbon dating intersects with topics in Châtelperronian and Mousterian. Her work in the fields of Archaeology, such as Archaeological evidence, overlaps with other areas such as Reign.

Her Chronology research incorporates elements of Glacial period, Ice core, Physical geography and Iron Age. Her work in Evolutionary biology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Biological evolution. Her 16S ribosomal RNA, Archaea and Methanogen study in the realm of Genetics interacts with subjects such as Methanomicrobiales and Methanosarcinales.

Her most cited work include:

  • Current Pretreatment Methods for AMS Radiocarbon Dating at the Oxford Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit (Orau) (542 citations)
  • The timing and spatiotemporal patterning of Neanderthal disappearance (446 citations)
  • Ancient Ethiopian genome reveals extensive Eurasian admixture throughout the African continent (205 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Radiocarbon dating, Archaeology, Chronology, Paleontology and Pleistocene. The Radiocarbon dating study combines topics in areas such as Glacial period, Varve, Charcoal, Mineralogy and Physical geography. In her study, Paleoclimatology is inextricably linked to Ice core, which falls within the broad field of Glacial period.

Her study in Ancient history extends to Archaeology with its themes. Fiona Brock works mostly in the field of Chronology, limiting it down to concerns involving Neanderthal and, occasionally, Châtelperronian. Her Paleontology study deals with Aurignacian intersecting with Mousterian and Period.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Radiocarbon dating (70.49%)
  • Archaeology (51.64%)
  • Chronology (26.23%)

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

  • Radiocarbon dating (70.49%)
  • Archaeology (51.64%)
  • Chronology (26.23%)

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

Radiocarbon dating, Archaeology, Chronology, Isotopes of strontium and Pleistocene are her primary areas of study. Her Radiocarbon dating research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Forensic anthropology and Forensic science. The various areas that Fiona Brock examines in her Archaeology study include Painting and Identification.

Her Painting study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Rock art and Ancient history. Her studies in Pleistocene integrate themes in fields like Glacial period, Physical geography, Neanderthal and Paleoclimatology. Her work on Megafauna and Absolute dating as part of general Paleontology research is frequently linked to Bone collagen and Background Correction, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The earliest directly dated rock paintings from southern Africa: new AMS radiocarbon dates (31 citations)
  • Testing the effectiveness of protocols for removal of common conservation treatments for radiocarbon dating (20 citations)
  • Radiocarbon dating historical mortars: lime lumps and/or binder carbonate? (9 citations)

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

  • Archaeology
  • Ecology
  • Paleontology

Her primary areas of study are Radiocarbon dating, Archaeology, Painting, Time lag and Modern art. Fiona Brock has included themes like Carbonate, Mortar, Geochemistry, Calcite and Lime in her Radiocarbon dating study. Her Archaeology study typically links adjacent topics like Paleontology.

Her Painting research includes elements of Later Stone Age, Rock art and Ancient history. Her multidisciplinary approach integrates Time lag and Chronology in her work.
