Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Climate change

Jean-Claude Duplessy focuses on Oceanography, North Atlantic Deep Water, Last Glacial Maximum, Younger Dryas and Thermohaline circulation. His Oceanography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Glacial period and Interglacial. Jean-Claude Duplessy has included themes like Water mass and Sea surface temperature in his North Atlantic Deep Water study.

His Last Glacial Maximum study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as δ18O and Upwelling. The concepts of his Younger Dryas study are interwoven with issues in Meltwater and Deglaciation. His Thermohaline circulation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in North Atlantic oscillation and Gulf Stream.

His most cited work include:

  • The Physical Science Basis (3670 citations)
  • Sea-level and deep water temperature changes derived from benthic foraminifera isotopic records (1518 citations)
  • Changes in East Atlantic Deepwater Circulation over the last 30,000 years: Eight time slice reconstructions (561 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Glacial period, Foraminifera, Thermohaline circulation and Deglaciation. As part of his studies on Oceanography, Jean-Claude Duplessy frequently links adjacent subjects like Interglacial. He focuses mostly in the field of Glacial period, narrowing it down to matters related to Climatology and, in some cases, Precipitation.

His study in Foraminifera is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Thermocline, δ18O, Polar front and Plankton. His study looks at the relationship between Thermohaline circulation and fields such as Sea surface temperature, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His studies deal with areas such as Younger Dryas, Accelerator mass spectrometry, Period and Meltwater as well as Deglaciation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (70.06%)
  • Glacial period (31.74%)
  • Foraminifera (25.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2017)?

  • Oceanography (70.06%)
  • Foraminifera (25.75%)
  • Climatology (16.17%)

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

Jean-Claude Duplessy mainly investigates Oceanography, Foraminifera, Climatology, Thermohaline circulation and North Atlantic Deep Water. His work deals with themes such as Glacial period and Interglacial, which intersect with Oceanography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Thermocline, Paleontology, Water column, Sediment core and Plankton in addition to Foraminifera.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Thermohaline circulation, Gulf Stream are connected with North Atlantic oscillation, Ocean gyre, Temperature salinity diagrams, Latitude of the Gulf Stream and the Gulf Stream north wall index and Holocene and other disciplines. In the field of North Atlantic Deep Water, his study on Atlantic Equatorial mode overlaps with subjects such as North west. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Deglaciation, focusing on Ocean current and, on occasion, Ice rafting.

Between 2006 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • The Physical Science Basis (3670 citations)
  • Mg/Ca and Sr/Ca ratios in planktonic foraminifera: Proxies for upper water column temperature reconstruction (98 citations)
  • Deep-dwelling foraminifera as thermocline temperature recorders (78 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Climate change

Jean-Claude Duplessy spends much of his time researching Oceanography, North Atlantic Deep Water, Thermohaline circulation, Foraminifera and Climatology. His Oceanography research integrates issues from Trace element and Mineralogy. The various areas that Jean-Claude Duplessy examines in his North Atlantic Deep Water study include Hydrography, Water mass, Deglaciation, Ocean current and Benthic zone.

Jean-Claude Duplessy does research in Thermohaline circulation, focusing on Atlantic Equatorial mode specifically. His Foraminifera research includes themes of Thermocline, Isotopic composition, Sinistral and dextral and Upwelling. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Meltwater, Interglacial and Ice sheet.
