In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
J. R. Toggweiler mainly investigates Oceanography, Ocean current, Glacial period, Environmental science and Interglacial.
In general Oceanography, his work in Upwelling, North Atlantic Deep Water, Thermohaline circulation and Earth system model is often linked to Central American Seaway linking many areas of study.
His research on Thermohaline circulation focuses in particular on Antarctic Bottom Water.
In the subject of general Ocean current, his work in Ocean dynamics is often linked to Sink, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His Interglacial study incorporates themes from Carbon sequestration, Deep sea, Seafloor spreading and Water column.
His Ice age research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ice-sheet model, Benthic zone, Paleoclimatology and Ice sheet.
Between 2009 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- The last glacial termination. (495 citations)
- Glacial to Interglacial Changes in Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide: The Critical Role of Ocean Surface Water in High Latitudes (102 citations)
- Impact of Antarctic Circumpolar Current development on late Paleogene ocean structure. (100 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Oceanography
- Climate change
- Carbon dioxide
His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Glacial period, Interglacial, Ice sheet and Paleoclimatology.
His research integrates issues of Paleontology and Paleogene in his study of Oceanography.
Interglacial is connected with Surface water and Environmental science in his study.
The Ice sheet study combines topics in areas such as Ice age, Deglaciation, Antarctic Cold Reversal, Westerlies and Ice-sheet model.
His Paleoclimatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Climatology, Orbital forcing, Cryosphere, Younger Dryas and Atmospheric sciences.
The various areas that J. R. Toggweiler examines in his Bottom water study include Sediment, Calcite, Carbonate compensation depth, Water column and Antarctic Intermediate Water.
