Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography
  • Archaeology

Ian Shennan spends much of his time researching Sea level, Oceanography, Holocene, Climatology and Post-glacial rebound. His Sea level study incorporates themes from Transgressive and Subsidence. Ian Shennan combines subjects such as Isostasy, Radiocarbon dating and Quaternary with his study of Subsidence.

Ian Shennan studies Oceanography, namely Estuary. Holocene is closely attributed to North sea in his work. His Post-glacial rebound research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Deglaciation, Lithosphere and Last Glacial Maximum.

His most cited work include:

  • Holocene land‐ and sea‐level changes in Great Britain (407 citations)
  • Holocene crustal movements and sea‐level changes in Great Britain (183 citations)
  • Identifying coseismic subsidence in tidal‐wetland stratigraphic sequences at the Cascadia subduction zone of western North America (180 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Sea level, Holocene, Oceanography, Post-glacial rebound and Ice sheet. His Sea level study is associated with Physical geography. His work deals with themes such as Seismology, Radiocarbon dating, Salt marsh and Subsidence, which intersect with Holocene.

His study in Oceanography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Peat, Sediment and Marsh. Ian Shennan interconnects Tectonics, Lithosphere and Altitude in the investigation of issues within Post-glacial rebound. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Ice sheet, Ice core is strongly linked to Deglaciation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Sea level (60.80%)
  • Holocene (53.60%)
  • Oceanography (48.80%)

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

  • Sea level (60.80%)
  • Holocene (53.60%)
  • Oceanography (48.80%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Sea level, Holocene, Oceanography, Ice sheet and Seismology. His biological study focuses on Post-glacial rebound. Ian Shennan works mostly in the field of Post-glacial rebound, limiting it down to topics relating to Pleistocene and, in certain cases, Altitude.

Ian Shennan usually deals with Holocene and limits it to topics linked to Subsidence and Earthquake cycle. The concepts of his Ice sheet study are interwoven with issues in Climatology, Climate change, Meltwater, Deglaciation and Isostasy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Radiocarbon dating, Sound and Marsh in addition to Seismology.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An improved glacial isostatic adjustment model for the British Isles (150 citations)
  • Handbook of sea‐level research (86 citations)
  • Late Holocene vertical land motion and relative sea‐level changes: lessons from the British Isles (76 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Archaeology
  • Oceanography

Ian Shennan mainly focuses on Sea level, Holocene, Ice sheet, Oceanography and Physical geography. His Sea level research integrates issues from Seismology and Marsh. His research in Holocene intersects with topics in Paleoecology, Salt marsh and Subsidence.

Within one scientific family, Ian Shennan focuses on topics pertaining to Meltwater under Ice sheet, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Climatology. His study in the field of Training and Sea level change is also linked to topics like Model choice. He combines subjects such as Sedimentary rock, Deglaciation, Transgressive and Last Glacial Maximum with his study of Physical geography.
