Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oxygen
  • Paleontology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Anoxic waters, Earth science, Mineralogy and Precambrian. His work on Oil shale and Source rock is typically connected to Extinction event and Permian–Triassic extinction event as part of general Paleontology study, connecting several disciplines of science. As part of one scientific family, Gordon D. Love deals mainly with the area of Anoxic waters, narrowing it down to issues related to the Early Earth, and often Biosphere, Earth, Oceanography and Sedimentary rock.

His studies in Earth science integrate themes in fields like Oxidizing agent and Redox. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Carbon-13 NMR, Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Infrared spectroscopy, Analytical chemistry and Kerogen. His Precambrian research includes themes of Continental shelf, Chemostratigraphy, Marine transgression and Ocean chemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Photic Zone Euxinia During the Permian-Triassic Superanoxic Event (579 citations)
  • Fossil steroids record the appearance of Demospongiae during the Cryogenian period (459 citations)
  • Biomarker evidence for green and purple sulphur bacteria in a stratified Palaeoproterozoic sea (403 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Kerogen, Sterane, Environmental chemistry and Geochemistry. He undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Paleontology and Extinction event in his work. His study on Permian–Triassic extinction event is often connected to Photic zone as part of broader study in Extinction event.

The Kerogen study combines topics in areas such as Organic matter, Organic chemistry, Oil shale, Aromatic hydrocarbon and Mineralogy. His Sterane research incorporates themes from Geologic record and Facies. His Sedimentary rock study incorporates themes from Marine ecosystem, Biogeochemical cycle and Anoxic waters.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (32.11%)
  • Kerogen (21.10%)
  • Sterane (18.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Sterane (18.35%)
  • Paleontology (32.11%)
  • Sedimentary rock (11.93%)

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

Gordon D. Love spends much of his time researching Sterane, Paleontology, Sedimentary rock, Hopanoids and Geochemistry. His Sterane study combines topics in areas such as Ecology, Habitat, Algae, Photic zone and Facies. His work focuses on many connections between Photic zone and other disciplines, such as Trilobite, that overlap with his field of interest in Marine ecosystem.

His Sedimentary rock research includes elements of Geologic record, Period, Demosponge, Sequence and Biogeochemical cycle. His study in Hopanoids is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Productivity, Metamorphism and Sturtian glaciation. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Kerogen and Anoxic waters.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Demosponge steroid biomarker 26-methylstigmastane provides evidence for Neoproterozoic animals. (49 citations)
  • Ediacara biota flourished in oligotrophic and bacterially dominated marine environments across Baltica. (23 citations)
  • Tracking the rise of eukaryotes to ecological dominance with zinc isotopes. (22 citations)

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

  • Oxygen
  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Sterane, Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry, Hopanoids and Evolutionary biology. Gordon D. Love integrates Sterane and Molecular clock in his research. His Sedimentary rock research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Range, Total organic carbon, Earth science, Marine ecosystem and Carbon cycle.

Gordon D. Love has researched Geochemistry in several fields, including Photic zone, Pelagic zone, Redox gradient, Anoxic waters and Facies. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Kerogen, Ecology, Metamorphism and Sturtian glaciation. Gordon D. Love has included themes like Geologic record, Period, Demosponge, Sequence and Algae in his Evolutionary biology study.
