Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oxygen
  • Oceanography

His main research concerns Sapropel, Organic matter, Sediment, Oceanography and Environmental chemistry. His Sapropel study combines topics in areas such as Geochemistry, Pyrite, Sulfate and Deposition. His Organic matter research incorporates themes from Sedimentary rock and Total organic carbon.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mineralogy, Diagenesis, Water column and Anoxic waters. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Mediterranean climate and Oceanography. Gert J. de Lange has included themes like Abyssal plain, Carbonate and Turbidite in his Environmental chemistry study.

His most cited work include:

  • The Messinian Salinity Crisis: Past and future of a great challenge for marine sciences (293 citations)
  • The Enigma of Prokaryotic Life in Deep Hypersaline Anoxic Basins (250 citations)
  • Mobilization of radiocaesium in pore water of lake sediments (188 citations)

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

Oceanography, Sapropel, Geochemistry, Mineralogy and Sediment are his primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Carbonate, Pore water pressure and Provenance in addition to Oceanography. His research integrates issues of Organic matter, Paleontology, Diagenesis and Total organic carbon in his study of Sapropel.

His Organic matter study incorporates themes from Bottom water, Productivity and Anoxic waters. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Geomorphology and Sediment core. His studies in Mineralogy integrate themes in fields like Manganese and Water column.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (36.36%)
  • Sapropel (31.31%)
  • Geochemistry (25.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Sapropel (31.31%)
  • Sediment (23.74%)
  • Oceanography (36.36%)

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

Gert J. de Lange mainly investigates Sapropel, Sediment, Oceanography, Mediterranean climate and Mediterranean sea. His research in Sapropel intersects with topics in Deposition, Provenance, Fluvial and Interglacial. His Sediment study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Seawater, Carbonate, Pore water pressure and Mud volcano.

In his research, Mineralogy is intimately related to Copper, which falls under the overarching field of Carbonate. He performs multidisciplinary study in Oceanography and Environmental science in his work. His Mediterranean climate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Geochemistry and Anomaly.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Differences between the last two glacial maxima and implications for ice-sheet, δ18O, and sea-level reconstructions (46 citations)
  • Trace metal analysis of sediment cores using a novel X-ray fluorescence core scanning method (19 citations)
  • Glendonites track methane seepage in Mesozoic polar seas (19 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oxygen
  • Paleontology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Sediment, Glacial period, Sapropel, Environmental chemistry and Carbon cycle. The concepts of his Sediment study are interwoven with issues in Mediterranean climate and Anomaly. His Sapropel research includes themes of Monsoon, Oceanography, Mineralogy and Physical geography.

His Oceanography study focuses on Paleoclimatology in particular. Gert J. de Lange has researched Environmental chemistry in several fields, including Soil water and Topsoil. His Carbon cycle research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Organic matter, Paleontology, Ikaite and Isotopes of carbon.
