Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Law
  • Social science
  • Mathematical analysis

James D. Wright spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Oceanography, Sea level, Ice sheet and Deep sea. His research in Cenozoic, Glacial period, Paleogene, Late Miocene and Coastal plain are components of Paleontology. Many of his studies on Oceanography apply to Oceanic basin as well.

James D. Wright has researched Sea level in several fields, including Deglaciation and Geomorphology. James D. Wright has included themes like Sedimentary depositional environment, Siliciclastic, Orbital forcing, Arctic ice pack and Ice-sheet model in his Ice sheet study. His Deep sea research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Continental shelf and Benthic zone.

His most cited work include:

  • The Phanerozoic Record of Global Sea-Level Change (2075 citations)
  • Handbook of Survey Research. (923 citations)
  • Unlocking the Ice House: Oligocene‐Miocene oxygen isotopes, eustasy, and margin erosion (859 citations)

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

James D. Wright mainly focuses on Oceanography, Paleontology, Sea level, Suicide prevention and Injury prevention. His Oceanography study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Glacial period. His study in Cenozoic, Cretaceous and Coastal plain falls under the purview of Paleontology.

Suicide prevention connects with themes related to Human factors and ergonomics in his study. Injury prevention combines with fields such as Medical emergency and Criminology in his research.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (18.97%)
  • Paleontology (15.18%)
  • Sea level (8.48%)

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

  • Oceanography (18.97%)
  • Paleontology (15.18%)
  • Pure mathematics (4.69%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Paleontology, Pure mathematics, Sea level and Combinatorics. His work on Oceanography is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as δ18O. His δ18O research incorporates themes from Glacial period, Milankovitch cycles, Foraminifera, Benthic zone and δ13C.

His works in Cretaceous and Stratigraphy are all subjects of inquiry into Paleontology. His Pure mathematics research includes elements of Class and Convolution. He usually deals with Sea level and limits it to topics linked to Continental margin and Quaternary and Ice sheet.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Food waste and the food-energy-water nexus: A review of food waste management alternatives. (87 citations)
  • Cenozoic sea-level and cryospheric evolution from deep-sea geochemical and continental margin records. (49 citations)
  • Refinement of Miocene sea level and monsoon events from the sedimentary archive of the Maldives (Indian Ocean) (42 citations)

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

  • Law
  • Social science
  • Mathematical analysis

His main research concerns Paleontology, δ18O, Oceanography, Carbonate and Monsoon. The study of Paleontology is intertwined with the study of Fauna in a number of ways. The concepts of his δ18O study are interwoven with issues in Glacial period, Milankovitch cycles, Foraminifera, Benthic zone and δ13C.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Cenozoic, Quaternary, Continental margin and Ice sheet in addition to Glacial period. In his articles, James D. Wright combines various disciplines, including Oceanography and Context. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Carbonate platform, focusing on Late Miocene and, on occasion, Sea level.
