What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Oceanography
- Ecology
- Sediment
His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Glacial period, Thermohaline circulation, Younger Dryas and Quaternary.
Helmut Erlenkeuser frequently studies issues relating to Climatology and Oceanography.
His research investigates the connection between Glacial period and topics such as Global cooling that intersect with problems in Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere and Orbital forcing.
His Thermohaline circulation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sea surface temperature, Northern Hemisphere, Water column and Greenland ice sheet.
His study in Younger Dryas is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Meltwater and Water mass.
His research in Quaternary intersects with topics in Paleoclimatology and Upwelling.
His most cited work include:
- Correlation between Arabian Sea and Greenland climate oscillations of the past 110,000 years (630 citations)
- East Asian monsoon climate during the Late Pleistocene: high-resolution sediment records from the south China Sea (598 citations)
- Changes in East Atlantic Deepwater Circulation over the last 30,000 years: Eight time slice reconstructions (561 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Helmut Erlenkeuser mostly deals with Sediment core, Oceanography, Geochemistry, Table and Stable isotope ratio.
His work investigates the relationship between Sediment core and topics such as Environmental chemistry that intersect with problems in Isotopes of carbon.
The concepts of his Oceanography study are interwoven with issues in Glacial period and Isotopes of oxygen.
His research on Glacial period often connects related topics like Ice sheet.
His Table research includes themes of Hydrology and Sediment.
His Cretaceous study in the realm of Paleontology connects with subjects such as Composition.
He most often published in these fields:
- Sediment core (48.84%)
- Oceanography (35.47%)
- Geochemistry (20.50%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2017)?
- Oceanography (35.47%)
- Stable isotope ratio (15.69%)
- Isotopes of oxygen (9.45%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Helmut Erlenkeuser spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Stable isotope ratio, Isotopes of oxygen, Foraminifera and Paleontology.
Helmut Erlenkeuser combines subjects such as Marine isotope stage, Glacial period and Northern Hemisphere with his study of Oceanography.
The Glacial period study combines topics in areas such as Global cooling, North Atlantic Deep Water and Ice sheet.
His Stable isotope ratio research also works with subjects such as
- Geochemistry, which have a strong connection to Portlandia arctica,
- Physical geography which is related to area like Varve.
His study explores the link between Foraminifera and topics such as Sediment core that cross with problems in Environmental chemistry.
Helmut Erlenkeuser interconnects δ18O, Globigerina bulloides and Table in the investigation of issues within Paleontology.
Between 2004 and 2017, his most popular works were:
- Final closure of Panama and the onset of northern hemisphere glaciation (267 citations)
- Impacts of orbital forcing and atmospheric carbon dioxide on Miocene ice-sheet expansion (253 citations)
- Mediterranean outflow strengthening during northern hemisphere coolings: A salt source for the glacial Atlantic? (203 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Oceanography
- Ecology
- Sediment
His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Glacial period, Stable isotope ratio, Foraminifera and Holocene.
His Oceanography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Marine isotope stage, Northern Hemisphere and Isotopes of oxygen.
