The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Organic chemistry, Diagenesis, Botany, Isotopes of carbon and Carbon.
His Organic chemistry research includes elements of Kerogen, Algaenan, Chlorophyceae and Algae.
His Diagenesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary rock, Hopanoids, Catagenesis and Hydrocarbon.
When carried out as part of a general Botany research project, his work on Isochrysis galbana is frequently linked to work in Abu dhabi, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His Isotopes of carbon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental chemistry, Organic matter and Biochemistry, Metabolism.
Jan W. de Leeuw focuses mostly in the field of Carbon, narrowing it down to matters related to Phytane and, in some cases, Nuclear chemistry, Sedimentary organic matter, Pyrolysis and Mineralogy.
His most cited work include:
- Diagenetic and catagenetic products of isorenieratene: Molecular indicators for photic zone anoxia (308 citations)
- A molecular and carbon isotopic study towards the origin and diagenetic fate of diaromatic carotenoids (148 citations)
- Resistant biomacromolecules in marine microalgae of the classes Eustigmatophyceae and Chlorophyceae: Geochemical implications (147 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Organic chemistry, Organic matter, Mineralogy, Diagenesis and Sulfur are his primary areas of study.
His research integrates issues of Hopanoids and Algaenan in his study of Organic chemistry.
Jan W. de Leeuw has included themes like Environmental chemistry, Hydrolysis, Paleontology and Isotopes of carbon in his Organic matter study.
While the research belongs to areas of Isotopes of carbon, he spends his time largely on the problem of Dissolved organic carbon, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Botany.
His research on Mineralogy also deals with topics like
-
Kerogen together with Pyrolysis and Sedimentary organic matter,
-
Sterane which is related to area like Nickel boride.
His study on Diagenesis also encompasses disciplines like
-
Sedimentary rock which intersects with area such as Sediment,
-
Catagenesis that intertwine with fields like Hydrocarbon.
He most often published in these fields:
- Organic chemistry (26.72%)
- Organic matter (18.10%)
- Mineralogy (18.10%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2019)?
- Environmental resource management (7.76%)
- Pastoralism (5.17%)
- Agroforestry (5.17%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Jan W. de Leeuw mainly investigates Environmental resource management, Pastoralism, Agroforestry, Livestock and Environmental planning.
His work focuses on many connections between Environmental resource management and other disciplines, such as Wildlife, that overlap with his field of interest in Environmental protection.
His Pastoralism research includes themes of Biodiversity conservation, Food security and Resource management.
As a part of the same scientific family, Jan W. de Leeuw mostly works in the field of Agroforestry, focusing on Carbon sequestration and, on occasion, Exclosure.
His work deals with themes such as Agriculture, Agricultural diversification, Livelihood, Land rehabilitation and Sustainability, which intersect with Livestock.
Jan W. de Leeuw works mostly in the field of Arid, limiting it down to concerns involving Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and, occasionally, Remote sensing.
Between 2010 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Length of growing period over Africa : variability and trends from 30 years of NDVI Time Series (107 citations)
- The potential and uptake of remote sensing in insurance: A review (70 citations)
- What Four Decades of Earth Observation Tell Us about Land Degradation in the Sahel (49 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Organic chemistry
- Ecology
- Agriculture
His primary scientific interests are in Remote sensing, Agroforestry, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, Environmental resource management and Profitability index.
His research links Urban area with Remote sensing.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Livelihood, Land use, Applied ecology, Agricultural diversification and Livestock.
His Normalized Difference Vegetation Index research integrates issues from Arid, Climatology, Weather station and Spatial distribution.
His studies in Environmental resource management integrate themes in fields like Environmental planning, Land degradation and Water supply.
Among his Profitability index studies, there is a synthesis of other scientific areas such as Risk pool, Project planning, Decision analysis, Business analysis and Scope.
