Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecosystem

Fred Worrall spends much of his time researching Hydrology, Peat, Dissolved organic carbon, Drainage basin and Total organic carbon. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil water and Pollution. His research integrates issues of Natural, Climate change, Carbon sink and Hydrology in his study of Peat.

His studies deal with areas such as Surface runoff and Acrotelm as well as Dissolved organic carbon. His work deals with themes such as Biogeochemistry, Structural basin, Sewage and Sewage treatment, which intersect with Drainage basin. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Carbon dioxide, Organic matter, Ecosystem and STREAMS.

His most cited work include:

  • Environmental change in moorland landscapes. (237 citations)
  • Trends in Dissolved Organic Carbon in UK Rivers and Lakes (229 citations)
  • Oil and gas wells and their integrity : implications for shale and unconventional resource exploitation (214 citations)

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

Fred Worrall mainly investigates Hydrology, Peat, Dissolved organic carbon, Drainage basin and Soil water. His research investigates the connection between Hydrology and topics such as Nitrate that intersect with problems in Land use, land-use change and forestry. Fred Worrall interconnects Environmental chemistry, Organic matter, Ecosystem and Water table in the investigation of issues within Peat.

His Dissolved organic carbon study combines topics in areas such as Carbon dioxide and Carbon cycle. His Drainage basin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Surface water, Biogeochemical cycle, STREAMS and Groundwater. The study incorporates disciplines such as Hydrology and Vegetation in addition to Soil water.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (46.97%)
  • Peat (36.36%)
  • Dissolved organic carbon (20.61%)

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

  • Peat (36.36%)
  • Hydrology (46.97%)
  • Environmental chemistry (11.21%)

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

Peat, Hydrology, Environmental chemistry, Dissolved organic carbon and Organic matter are his primary areas of study. His research in Peat intersects with topics in Statistical physics, Ecosystem, Greenhouse gas and Land use. His study in the fields of Stream power, Drainage basin and Water quality under the domain of Hydrology overlaps with other disciplines such as Baseline.

His work on Aquatic ecosystem as part of general Environmental chemistry research is often related to Flux, thus linking different fields of science. His Dissolved organic carbon research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Chemical oxygen demand, Wetland, Effluent and Sewage. His Organic matter research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biomass, Degradation and Soil horizon.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Fracking: How far from faults? (18 citations)
  • An assessment of the footprint and carrying capacity of oil and gas well sites: The implications for limiting hydrocarbon reserves. (15 citations)
  • Declines in the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration and flux from the UK (14 citations)

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

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

His main research concerns Dissolved organic carbon, Peat, Environmental chemistry, Greenhouse gas and Hydrology. His work carried out in the field of Dissolved organic carbon brings together such families of science as Chemical oxygen demand, Biochemical oxygen demand, Sewage, Effluent and Carbon cycle. His Peat study incorporates themes from Global warming, Wetland and Land use.

The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Organic matter, Northern Hemisphere, Ecosystem and Sewage treatment. His work focuses on many connections between Greenhouse gas and other disciplines, such as Methane, that overlap with his field of interest in Aquifer, Groundwater, Environmental change, Soil science and Tonne. His study in Hydrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sediment, Water column and Overbank.
