Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Cretaceous

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Cretaceous, Foraminifera, Oceanography and Extinction event. Her work deals with themes such as Fauna and Sea level, which intersect with Paleontology. Her Cretaceous study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Latitude, Extinction, Continental shelf, Bolide and Hiatus.

Gerta Keller combines subjects such as Total organic carbon and Isotopes of carbon with her study of Foraminifera. Her Oceanography research incorporates elements of Indo-Pacific, Middle latitudes and Biogeography. Her research in Extinction event intersects with topics in Volcano, Impact crater, Mesozoic, Species richness and Generalist and specialist species.

Her most cited work include:

  • U-Pb geochronology of the Deccan Traps and relation to the end-Cretaceous mass extinction (270 citations)
  • Paleoceanographic implications of Miocene deep-sea hiatuses (255 citations)
  • Paleoceanographic implications of Miocene deep-sea hiatuses (255 citations)

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

Gerta Keller mostly deals with Paleontology, Cretaceous, Foraminifera, Extinction event and Oceanography. The various areas that Gerta Keller examines in her Paleontology study include Sea level and Extinction. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry, Hiatus and Ocean acidification in addition to Cretaceous.

Her Foraminifera research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Species richness, Paleoclimatology and Table. Her Extinction event research incorporates themes from Volcano, Impact crater, Earth science, Climate change and Deccan Traps. Oceanography is closely attributed to Neogene in her research.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (72.87%)
  • Cretaceous (33.85%)
  • Foraminifera (28.17%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Paleontology (72.87%)
  • Extinction event (26.36%)
  • Cretaceous (33.85%)

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

Paleontology, Extinction event, Cretaceous, Volcanism and Geochemistry are her primary areas of study. Gerta Keller interconnects Foraminifera and Extinction in the investigation of issues within Paleontology. Her study in Foraminifera is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Stratotype and Marine transgression.

Her Extinction event research integrates issues from Volcano, Lava, Earth science and Global warming, Climate change. Her Cretaceous study incorporates themes from Sedimentary rock, Oceanography, Ocean acidification and Weathering. Her Biostratigraphy study combines topics in areas such as Tectonics, Stratigraphy, Gulf Stream, Hiatus and Sea level.

Between 2010 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • U-Pb geochronology of the Deccan Traps and relation to the end-Cretaceous mass extinction (270 citations)
  • U-Pb constraints on pulsed eruption of the Deccan Traps across the end-Cretaceous mass extinction (124 citations)
  • Mercury anomaly, Deccan volcanism and the end-Cretaceous Mass Extinction: REPLY (89 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Cretaceous

Her main research concerns Cretaceous, Paleontology, Extinction event, Foraminifera and Volcano. Gerta Keller has included themes like Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry, Oceanography and Deccan Traps in her Cretaceous study. Her Paleontology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Extinction.

Her studies in Extinction event integrate themes in fields like Earth science, Lava, Volcanism, Global warming and Ocean acidification. Her Foraminifera study is associated with Benthic zone. Her Biostratigraphy study also includes fields such as

  • Hiatus together with Sea level, Sedimentology and Clastic rock,
  • Gulf Stream, which have a strong connection to Abyssal zone, Continental margin and Mass wasting.
