Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Sediment

Harry H. Roberts mostly deals with Oceanography, Continental shelf, Geochemistry, Authigenic and Progradation. His studies deal with areas such as Cold front and Sediment as well as Oceanography. His Continental shelf research integrates issues from Seafloor spreading and Seabed.

In his research, Foraminifera and Upwelling is intimately related to Paleontology, which falls under the overarching field of Geochemistry. His Authigenic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Carbonate rock and Anaerobic oxidation of methane. His studies in Progradation integrate themes in fields like Hydrology and Overbank.

His most cited work include:

  • Drowning of the Mississippi Delta due to insufficient sediment supply and global sea-level rise (552 citations)
  • Dynamic Changes of the Holocene Mississippi River Delta Plain: The Delta Cycle (307 citations)
  • Hydrocarbon-derived carbonate buildups of the northern Gulf of Mexico continental slope: A review of submersible investigations (262 citations)

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

Harry H. Roberts mainly focuses on Oceanography, Geomorphology, Geochemistry, Continental shelf and Sediment. In his study, Current is inextricably linked to Sediment transport, which falls within the broad field of Oceanography. His research in the fields of Sedimentary depositional environment and Sedimentation overlaps with other disciplines such as River delta.

In the subject of general Geochemistry, his work in Authigenic and Sedimentary rock is often linked to Hydrocarbon, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His Continental shelf study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Paleontology, Seafloor spreading, Mud volcano and Diapir. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Hydrology and Sediment.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (40.76%)
  • Geomorphology (22.61%)
  • Geochemistry (21.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Oceanography (40.76%)
  • Authigenic (13.69%)
  • Geochemistry (21.02%)

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

His main research concerns Oceanography, Authigenic, Geochemistry, River delta and Aragonite. His study in Oceanography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sediment and Habitat. His Sediment research includes themes of Submarine pipeline and Erosion.

His Authigenic research incorporates themes from Cold seep, Isotopes of carbon, Petroleum seep, Carbonate rock and Anaerobic oxidation of methane. He combines subjects such as Total organic carbon and Methane with his study of Geochemistry. He has researched Aragonite in several fields, including Petrography and Diagenesis.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Drowning of the Mississippi Delta due to insufficient sediment supply and global sea-level rise (552 citations)
  • Impact of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on a deep-water coral community in the Gulf of Mexico (237 citations)
  • The Mississippi Delta Region: Past, Present, and Future (130 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Erosion

Harry H. Roberts mainly investigates Authigenic, Aragonite, Mineralogy, Oceanography and Petroleum seep. His Aragonite study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Carbonate minerals and Anaerobic oxidation of methane. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Geochemistry and Carbonate rock.

His study brings together the fields of Sediment and Oceanography. His study in the fields of Sedimentary budget under the domain of Sediment overlaps with other disciplines such as Mississippi delta. His Petroleum seep research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Remote sensing, Water column and Racing slick.
