Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Cretaceous

Hugh C. Jenkyns mainly investigates Paleontology, Cretaceous, Anoxic waters, Cenomanian and Oceanography. His study in Paleontology focuses on Cenomanian-Turonian boundary event, Stratigraphy, Facies, Mesozoic and Posidonia Shale. His Cretaceous study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biostratigraphy, Climate change, Chemostratigraphy and TEX86.

Hugh C. Jenkyns interconnects Geochemistry, Weathering and Total organic carbon in the investigation of issues within Anoxic waters. Hugh C. Jenkyns has included themes like Water mass and Diagenesis in his Total organic carbon study. Sedimentary rock is closely connected to Upwelling in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Continental margin.

His most cited work include:

  • Cretaceous oceanic anoxic events: causes and consequences (1145 citations)
  • Geochemistry of oceanic anoxic events (811 citations)
  • Cretaceous anoxic events: from continents to oceans (799 citations)

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

Paleontology, Anoxic waters, Cretaceous, Geochemistry and Oceanography are his primary areas of study. His Paleontology study frequently links to related topics such as Isotopes of carbon. His Anoxic waters research includes themes of Seawater, Total organic carbon, Water column and Southern Hemisphere.

His research investigates the link between Cretaceous and topics such as Diagenesis that cross with problems in Calcite. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Geochemistry, concentrating on Structural basin and frequently concerns with Oil shale. His Sedimentary rock research integrates issues from Sedimentary depositional environment, Igneous rock and Continental margin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (67.42%)
  • Anoxic waters (27.65%)
  • Cretaceous (25.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Paleontology (67.42%)
  • Anoxic waters (27.65%)
  • Cretaceous (25.00%)

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

Hugh C. Jenkyns spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Anoxic waters, Cretaceous, Geochemistry and Oceanography. His studies deal with areas such as Carbon cycle and Isotopes of carbon as well as Paleontology. His biological study deals with issues like Total organic carbon, which deal with fields such as Oil shale.

His Anoxic waters study incorporates themes from Seawater, Cenomanian, Chemostratigraphy and Seafloor spreading. His work in Cretaceous tackles topics such as Foraminifera which are related to areas like δ18O, Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point and Stage. His study in the fields of Weathering under the domain of Geochemistry overlaps with other disciplines such as Cadmium.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Cretaceous sea-surface temperature evolution: Constraints from TEX86 and planktonic foraminiferal oxygen isotopes (152 citations)
  • Globally enhanced mercury deposition during the end-Pliensbachian extinction and Toarcian OAE: A link to the Karoo–Ferrar Large Igneous Province (121 citations)
  • Mercury evidence for pulsed volcanism during the end-Triassic mass extinction (85 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Cretaceous

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Sedimentary rock, Anoxic waters, Oceanography and Cretaceous. His study ties his expertise on Chemostratigraphy together with the subject of Paleontology. His research integrates issues of Sedimentary depositional environment, Structural basin and Igneous rock in his study of Sedimentary rock.

The concepts of his Anoxic waters study are interwoven with issues in Seawater, Seafloor spreading and Southern Hemisphere. His Global warming, Water column, Chemocline and Environmental change study, which is part of a larger body of work in Oceanography, is frequently linked to Environmental science, bridging the gap between disciplines. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point and Cretaceous.
