Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography
  • Sedimentary rock

Isabella Raffi mainly focuses on Paleontology, Paleogene, Biostratigraphy, Neogene and Pleistocene. Her work on Paleontology deals in particular with Astrochronology, Calcareous, Cenozoic, Stratigraphy and Cyclostratigraphy. Isabella Raffi has researched Astrochronology in several fields, including Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 and Climate change.

Her research integrates issues of Carbon cycle and Paleoclimatology in her study of Paleogene. Her Biostratigraphy research integrates issues from Pacific ocean, Oceanography, Magnetostratigraphy and Chronostratigraphy. Her Neogene research includes elements of Sedimentation, Geologic time scale, Quaternary and Micropaleontology.

Her most cited work include:

  • Chronology, causes and progression of the Messinian salinity crisis (1378 citations)
  • Rapid acidification of the ocean during the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum. (776 citations)
  • Late Neogene chronology: New perspectives in high-resolution stratigraphy (413 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Table, Calcareous, Oceanography and Biostratigraphy. Her studies in Paleogene, Magnetostratigraphy, Neogene, Pleistocene and Stratigraphy are all subfields of Paleontology research. Her studies deal with areas such as Mediterranean climate and Quaternary as well as Pleistocene.

Her study in Calcareous is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Geochemistry and Biochronology. Isabella Raffi studied Oceanography and Sedimentary rock that intersect with Tectonics. Her research in Biostratigraphy intersects with topics in Late Miocene, Chronostratigraphy and Section.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (51.46%)
  • Table (36.13%)
  • Calcareous (19.71%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Table (36.13%)
  • Paleontology (51.46%)
  • Geochemistry (7.30%)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Table, Paleontology, Geochemistry, Calcareous and Magnetostratigraphy. Isabella Raffi has included themes like Analytical chemistry, Mineralogy and Geodesy in her Table study. Paleontology and Foraminifera are frequently intertwined in her study.

The concepts of her Calcareous study are interwoven with issues in Taxon, Taxonomy and Pacific ocean. Her Magnetostratigraphy study combines topics in areas such as Stage, Seafloor spreading, Precession and Astrochronology. Her Biostratigraphy research focuses on Carbonate platform and how it connects with Oceanography.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Astronomical calibration of the Ypresian timescale: implications for seafloor spreading rates and the chaotic behavior of the solar system? (58 citations)
  • Evolution of the early Antarctic ice ages. (46 citations)
  • The Monterey Event within the Central Mediterranean area: The shallow-water record (16 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography
  • Sedimentary rock

Her main research concerns Paleontology, Geochemistry, Calcareous, Biostratigraphy and Chronostratigraphy. Many of her studies on Paleontology apply to Foraminifera as well. Her Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Total organic carbon, Marl and Mediterranean sea.

Her Calcareous research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cenozoic and Table. Her Biostratigraphy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary depositional environment, Carbonate platform, Isotopes of oxygen and Isotopes of carbon. Her studies in Chronostratigraphy integrate themes in fields like Paleoclimatology, Seafloor spreading, Geophysics, Precession and Astrochronology.
