Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanics
  • Sedimentary rock

His primary areas of study are Geomorphology, Turbidity current, Geotechnical engineering, Fluvial and Submarine. His work on Alluvium, Meander, Sedimentary depositional environment and Deposition as part of general Geomorphology study is frequently linked to Bedding, bridging the gap between disciplines. Jeff Peakall combines subjects such as Aggradation, Debris, Debris flow, Geometry and Turbidite with his study of Turbidity current.

His Geotechnical engineering research incorporates elements of Turbulence, Mechanics, Internal wave, Plug flow and Petrology. His Petrology study incorporates themes from Sedimentary rock, Sediment and Bedform. The various areas that Jeff Peakall examines in his Submarine study include Abyssal zone, Sediment transport and Earth science.

His most cited work include:

  • Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs): Their past, present and future contributions to the advancement of marine geoscience (405 citations)
  • A Process Model for the Evolution, Morphology, and Architecture of Sinuous Submarine Channels (282 citations)
  • Sinuous deep-water channels: Genesis, geometry and architecture (196 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Mechanics, Geomorphology, Geotechnical engineering, Submarine and Turbidity current. His Mechanics research incorporates themes from Settling and Particle size. His Geomorphology study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Paleontology.

His Geotechnical engineering study also includes

  • Flow which connect with Geometry,
  • Petrology which connect with Bedform. His work deals with themes such as Gravity current, Fluvial, Subaerial, Secondary flow and Meander, which intersect with Submarine. His Turbidity current study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Point bar, Sinuosity, Turbidite and Debris flow.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mechanics (21.36%)
  • Geomorphology (19.42%)
  • Geotechnical engineering (17.96%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Mechanics (21.36%)
  • Lagrangian particle tracking (2.91%)
  • Aggradation (5.34%)

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

His main research concerns Mechanics, Lagrangian particle tracking, Aggradation, Paleontology and Dewatering. His Aggradation study is concerned with Geomorphology in general. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ridge, Bathymetry and Seamount in addition to Geomorphology.

His Fluid dynamics study which covers Turbulent diffusion that intersects with Gravity current and Bedform. His work carried out in the field of Facies brings together such families of science as Sedimentary rock, Clastic rock, Outcrop, Arctic and Petrology. As part of the same scientific family, Jeff Peakall usually focuses on Particulates, concentrating on Debris and intersecting with Turbidity current.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Meandering rivers in modern desert basins: Implications for channel planform controls and prevegetation rivers (18 citations)
  • An integrated process-based model of flutes and tool marks in deep-water environments: Implications for palaeohydraulics, the Bouma sequence and hybrid event beds (10 citations)
  • Self-sharpening induces jet-like structure in seafloor gravity currents (10 citations)

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

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanics
  • Sedimentary rock

His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Mechanics, Structural basin, Arctic and Facies. He has researched Mechanics in several fields, including Gravity current, Clarifier and Calcite. His Gravity current research includes elements of Turbulence, Boundary layer, Geostrophic wind and Contourite.

His research integrates issues of Architecture and Vegetation in his study of Structural basin. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Sedimentary structures, focusing on Turbidite and, on occasion, Turbidity current. Jeff Peakall usually deals with Sedimentary basin and limits it to topics linked to Sedimentary depositional environment and Sedimentation, Fluvial, Earth science, Range and Geologic record.
