Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Climate change

Frederik J Hilgen mainly investigates Paleontology, Biostratigraphy, Cyclostratigraphy, Magnetostratigraphy and Astrochronology. His research on Paleontology often connects related topics like Mediterranean climate. His Biostratigraphy research includes elements of Late Miocene and Section.

The concepts of his Astrochronology study are interwoven with issues in Canyon, Geologic time scale and Geochronology. He works mostly in the field of Geologic time scale, limiting it down to concerns involving Cenozoic and, occasionally, Lithostratigraphy. His studies in Neogene integrate themes in fields like Pleistocene and Paleogene.

His most cited work include:

  • Synchronizing Rock Clocks of Earth History (978 citations)
  • The Paleogene Period (461 citations)
  • Late Neogene chronology: New perspectives in high-resolution stratigraphy (413 citations)

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

Frederik J Hilgen mainly focuses on Paleontology, Cyclostratigraphy, Sedimentary rock, Oceanography and Mediterranean climate. His study in Paleontology concentrates on Structural basin, Magnetostratigraphy, Stratigraphy, Biostratigraphy and Neogene. As a member of one scientific family, Frederik J Hilgen mostly works in the field of Magnetostratigraphy, focusing on Stratotype and, on occasion, Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point.

His Cyclostratigraphy research incorporates elements of Milankovitch cycles and Orbital forcing. His Sedimentary rock study incorporates themes from Late Miocene, Marl and Chronology. His work deals with themes such as Glacial period and Evaporite, which intersect with Mediterranean climate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (60.85%)
  • Cyclostratigraphy (16.40%)
  • Sedimentary rock (15.87%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Paleontology (60.85%)
  • Table (11.64%)
  • Cyclostratigraphy (16.40%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Table, Cyclostratigraphy, Oceanography and Milankovitch cycles. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mediterranean climate and Climate change. His Mediterranean climate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacial period, Biostratigraphy and Late Miocene.

His studies in Cyclostratigraphy integrate themes in fields like Hiatus and Scale. His work in the fields of Oceanography, such as Cryosphere and Deglaciation, overlaps with other areas such as δ18O. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Devonian and Astrochronology.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Synchronous tropical and polar temperature evolution in the Eocene (85 citations)
  • Stratigraphic continuity and fragmentary sedimentation: the success of cyclostratigraphy as part of integrated stratigraphy (62 citations)
  • Evolution of the early Antarctic ice ages. (46 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Climate change

Frederik J Hilgen mainly investigates Paleontology, Cyclostratigraphy, Milankovitch cycles, Climatology and Precession. His research integrates issues of Mediterranean climate and Oceanography in his study of Paleontology. His studies deal with areas such as Biostratigraphy and Late Miocene as well as Mediterranean climate.

The Cyclostratigraphy study combines topics in areas such as Marl, Ridge, Hiatus and Paleogene. Frederik J Hilgen has included themes like Tropical climate, Tropics and Latitude in his Climatology study. The various areas that he examines in his Geologic time scale study include Geochronology, Sediment and Zircon.
