What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
- Climate change
His main research concerns Monsoon, Loess, Climatology, Glacial period and Precipitation.
His Monsoon research integrates issues from Pleistocene and Holocene.
The concepts of his Loess study are interwoven with issues in Plateau and Mineralogy.
His studies in Mineralogy integrate themes in fields like Sedimentary rock and Particle-size distribution.
Jan Bloemendal works mostly in the field of Glacial period, limiting it down to topics relating to Northern Hemisphere and, in certain cases, Terrigenous sediment, Tropical cyclone, Paleoclimatology and Orbital forcing, as a part of the same area of interest.
The various areas that Jan Bloemendal examines in his Paleosol study include Pedogenesis and Weathering.
His most cited work include:
- Grain-size distribution function of polymodal sediments in hydraulic and aeolian environments, and numerical partitioning of the sedimentary components (388 citations)
- East Asian summer monsoon precipitation variability since the last deglaciation (332 citations)
- High-resolution multi-proxy climate records from Chinese loess: evidence for rapid climatic changes over the last 75 kyr (281 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Loess, Mineralogy, Climatology, Monsoon and Paleontology.
His Loess research focuses on Paleosol in particular.
His Paleosol research incorporates elements of Pedogenesis and Deposition.
His Mineralogy research focuses on subjects like Magnetic susceptibility, which are linked to Soil science.
His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Physical geography and Ice sheet.
His Monsoon research includes elements of Glacial period, Deglaciation, Northern Hemisphere and Precipitation.
He most often published in these fields:
- Loess (35.11%)
- Mineralogy (28.72%)
- Climatology (24.47%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2019)?
- Loess (35.11%)
- Climatology (24.47%)
- Mineralogy (28.72%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Jan Bloemendal mainly investigates Loess, Climatology, Mineralogy, Paleontology and Monsoon.
His Loess course of study focuses on Chronology and Ice core and Geomorphology.
His study in East Asian Monsoon and Arctic ice pack is carried out as part of his studies in Climatology.
His research in Arctic ice pack intersects with topics in Ice age, Interglacial and Ice sheet.
His research in the fields of Hematite and Maghemite overlaps with other disciplines such as Aluminium and Oxide minerals.
Jan Bloemendal interconnects East asian summer monsoon, Glacial period, Global warming and Precipitation in the investigation of issues within Monsoon.
Between 2010 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- East Asian summer monsoon precipitation variability since the last deglaciation (332 citations)
- Delayed build-up of Arctic ice sheets during 400,000-year minima in insolation variability (186 citations)
- Late Pleistocene and Holocene drought events at Lake Tana, the source of the Blue Nile (118 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
- Climate change
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Monsoon, Plateau, Climatology, Paleontology and Precipitation.
His Monsoon study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glacial period and Northern Hemisphere.
His work in the fields of Glacial period, such as Ice age and Interglacial, overlaps with other areas such as Latitude.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including East Asian Monsoon, Environmental change, Climate change, Ancient lake and Magnetostratigraphy.
The Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary depositional environment, Physical geography and Loess.
His study in Precipitation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Younger Dryas, Sahara pump theory, Deglaciation and Holocene.
