Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Groundwater
  • Erosion
  • Hydrology

His main research concerns Weathering, Geochemistry, Saprolite, Organic matter and Mineralogy. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Hydrology and Weathering. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Structural basin and Biogenic silica.

His research combines Soil water and Geochemistry. His Saprolite course of study focuses on Parent rock and Groundwater. Mineralogy is closely attributed to Iron oxide in his study.

His most cited work include:

  • Cerium anomalies in lateritic profiles (435 citations)
  • Mobilization and redistribution of REEs and thorium in a syenitic lateritic profile: A mass balance study (292 citations)
  • SOLID/LIQUID REE FRACTIONATION IN THE LATERITIC SYSTEM OF GOYOUM, EAST CAMEROON: THE IMPLICATION FOR THE PRESENT DYNAMICS OF THE SOIL COVERS OF THE HUMID TROPICAL REGIONS (270 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Hydrology, Weathering, Drainage basin, Geochemistry and Groundwater. His Saprolite study, which is part of a larger body of work in Weathering, is frequently linked to Regolith, Silicate and Organic matter, bridging the gap between disciplines. His studies in Saprolite integrate themes in fields like Mineralogy and Parent rock.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Geochemistry, Soil production function is strongly linked to Carbonate. His study on Groundwater discharge, Subsurface flow and Groundwater flow is often connected to Fertilizer as part of broader study in Groundwater. Within one scientific family, Jean-Jacques Braun focuses on topics pertaining to Soil water under Watershed, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Biogeochemical cycle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (71.59%)
  • Weathering (43.18%)
  • Drainage basin (44.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Drainage basin (44.32%)
  • Hydrology (71.59%)
  • Groundwater (42.05%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Drainage basin, Hydrology, Groundwater, Geochemistry and Monsoon. His work deals with themes such as Structural basin, Aquifer and Water level, which intersect with Drainage basin. His study in Hydrology concentrates on Irrigation and Watershed.

His Watershed research includes elements of Aquatic ecosystem and Wetland. His work on Groundwater recharge and Piezometer as part of his general Groundwater study is frequently connected to Fertilizer and Context, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Geochemistry study focuses on Weathering in particular.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • OZCAR: The French Network of Critical Zone Observatories (60 citations)
  • Monitoring Water Levels and Discharges Using Radar Altimetry in an Ungauged River Basin: The Case of the Ogooué (30 citations)
  • Groundwater resource vulnerability and spatial variability of nitrate contamination: Insights from high density tubewell monitoring in a hard rock aquifer. (28 citations)

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

  • Erosion
  • Groundwater
  • Hydrology

Jean-Jacques Braun spends much of his time researching Drainage basin, Hydrology, Return flow, Aquifer properties and Structural basin. His research on Drainage basin often connects related areas such as Water level. His Return flow investigation overlaps with other disciplines such as Groundwater recharge, Groundwater, Aquifer, Groundwater discharge and Fertilizer.

His Structural basin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sediment, Erosion and Sediment yield. Among his Sediment studies, you can observe a synthesis of other disciplines of science such as Tropical climate, Denudation, Cosmogenic nuclide, Time frame and Population.
