Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography
  • Archaeology

George S. Burr mainly focuses on Radiocarbon dating, Oceanography, Calibration, Paleontology and Quaternary. George S. Burr works on Radiocarbon dating which deals in particular with Absolute dating. The concepts of his Absolute dating study are interwoven with issues in Dendrochronology and Cenozoic.

His work in the fields of Sea level, Younger Dryas and Paleoclimatology overlaps with other areas such as Age correction. George S. Burr mostly deals with Before Present in his studies of Paleontology. His Before Present study combines topics in areas such as Foraminifera, Wiggle matching, Mixed layer and Varve.

His most cited work include:

  • INTCAL98 Radiocarbon Age Calibration, 24,000-0 cal BP (3970 citations)
  • IntCal04 terrestrial radiocarbon age calibration, 0-26 cal kyr BP (3377 citations)
  • Marine04 marine radiocarbon age calibration, 0-26 cal kyr BP (997 citations)

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

George S. Burr spends much of his time researching Radiocarbon dating, Oceanography, Holocene, Paleontology and Accelerator mass spectrometry. His work in the fields of Radiocarbon dating, such as Absolute dating, overlaps with other areas such as Calibration. His biological study deals with issues like Climatology, which deal with fields such as Atmosphere.

Paleontology is represented through his Quaternary, Pleistocene and Before Present research. His work focuses on many connections between Physical geography and other disciplines, such as Paleoclimatology, that overlap with his field of interest in Younger Dryas. His studies in Monsoon integrate themes in fields like Last Glacial Maximum and Plankton.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Radiocarbon dating (46.84%)
  • Oceanography (33.68%)
  • Holocene (22.11%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Radiocarbon dating (46.84%)
  • Oceanography (33.68%)
  • Holocene (22.11%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Radiocarbon dating, Oceanography, Holocene, Geochemistry and Coral. His work on Accelerator mass spectrometry as part of general Radiocarbon dating research is frequently linked to Mixing, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work carried out in the field of Holocene brings together such families of science as Aquatic ecosystem, Physical geography and Ostracod.

His Physical geography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Quaternary and Last Glacial Maximum. The various areas that he examines in his Last Glacial Maximum study include Meltwater, Foraminifera and Pleistocene. His Coral research includes themes of Upwelling, Radionuclide, Nuclear weapons testing and Radiogenic nuclide.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Obliquity pacing of the western Pacific Intertropical Convergence Zone over the past 282,000 years. (43 citations)
  • Obliquity pacing of the western Pacific Intertropical Convergence Zone over the past 282,000 years. (43 citations)
  • Acceleration of modern acidification in the South China Sea driven by anthropogenic CO2 (24 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Archaeology
  • Oceanography

His main research concerns Oceanography, Radiocarbon dating, Coral, Climatology and Physical geography. His research integrates issues of Marine ecosystem, Surface water and Radiogenic nuclide in his study of Oceanography. George S. Burr works in the field of Radiocarbon dating, focusing on Accelerator mass spectrometry in particular.

His Coral study combines topics in areas such as Radionuclide, Nuclear weapons testing, Upwelling and Atoll. His Climatology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sedimentary rock and Meteorology. His Physical geography research also works with subjects such as

  • Holocene that intertwine with fields like Chronology, Meltwater, Foraminifera and Pleistocene,
  • Marine transgression and related Sea level.
