What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
- Ecology
Galen P. Halverson focuses on Paleontology, Glacial period, Snowball Earth, Marinoan glaciation and Cap carbonate.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Paleontology, Geologic record is strongly linked to Chemostratigraphy.
His Glacial period study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Precambrian and Sea level.
His studies deal with areas such as Sedimentary basin, Earth science, Rodinia, Supercontinent and Tonian as well as Snowball Earth.
Galen P. Halverson focuses mostly in the field of Marinoan glaciation, narrowing it down to topics relating to Continental shelf and, in certain cases, Thermal subsidence, Waves and shallow water, Unconformity, Dolomite and Deep sea.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Dolostone and Diamictite.
His most cited work include:
- A Neoproterozoic Snowball Earth (1867 citations)
- Toward a Neoproterozoic composite carbon-isotope record (653 citations)
- Statistical analysis of iron geochemical data suggests limited late Proterozoic oxygenation (309 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Galen P. Halverson mainly focuses on Paleontology, Geochemistry, Glacial period, Snowball Earth and Proterozoic.
His research related to Sedimentary rock, Diamictite, Cap carbonate, Marinoan glaciation and Dolostone might be considered part of Paleontology.
His Geochemistry study incorporates themes from Rodinia and Chemostratigraphy, Isotopes of carbon.
His work carried out in the field of Glacial period brings together such families of science as Stratotype, Period, Tonian and Supercontinent.
The concepts of his Snowball Earth study are interwoven with issues in Meltwater, Continental shelf, Earth science and Weathering.
His Proterozoic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Anoxic waters, Geochronology, Seawater, Precambrian and Geologic time scale.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (63.45%)
- Geochemistry (42.13%)
- Glacial period (27.92%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Geochemistry (42.13%)
- Proterozoic (25.38%)
- Paleontology (63.45%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Proterozoic, Paleontology, Tonian and Sedimentary rock.
His research in Geochemistry intersects with topics in Sedimentary depositional environment and Chemostratigraphy, Isotopes of carbon.
His Proterozoic research incorporates themes from Geologic time scale, Earth science, Arctic and Archean.
His studies in Geochronology, Glacial period, Snowball Earth, Laurentia and Structural basin are all subfields of Paleontology research.
His Glacial period study combines topics in areas such as Period and Stratotype.
He has researched Snowball Earth in several fields, including Meltwater and Marinoan glaciation.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
