Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Joachim Reitner spends much of his time researching Carbonate, Paleontology, Mineralogy, Sponge and Anaerobic oxidation of methane. His Carbonate study combines topics in areas such as Environmental chemistry, Cold seep, Petroleum seep and Extracellular polymeric substance. Joachim Reitner usually deals with Paleontology and limits it to topics linked to Reef and Foraminifera.

His Mineralogy research focuses on Calcium and how it connects with Equilibrium fractionation, Isotope fractionation, Fractionation, Oxygen isotope ratio cycle and Analytical chemistry. His Sponge study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Zoology, Phylogenetics, Molecular phylogenetics and Sponge spicule. His studies in Anaerobic oxidation of methane integrate themes in fields like Microbial mat and Archaeol, Archaea.

His most cited work include:

  • Photosynthesis-induced biofilm calcification and calcium concentrations in Phanerozoic oceans. (344 citations)
  • Methane-derived carbonates and authigenic pyrite from the northwestern Black Sea (334 citations)
  • Modern cryptic microbialite/metazoan facies from Lizard Island (Great Barrier Reef, Australia) formation and concepts (301 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Carbonate, Geochemistry, Microbial mat and Ecology. Paleontology connects with themes related to Reef in his study. His work carried out in the field of Reef brings together such families of science as Cave, Sponge and Paleoecology.

His Carbonate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Anaerobic oxidation of methane and Mineralogy, Diagenesis, Calcite. His work focuses on many connections between Anaerobic oxidation of methane and other disciplines, such as Archaea, that overlap with his field of interest in Microorganism. In his study, Hopanoids is inextricably linked to Organic matter, which falls within the broad field of Microbial mat.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (34.11%)
  • Carbonate (26.76%)
  • Geochemistry (18.73%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (18.73%)
  • Paleontology (34.11%)
  • Carbonate (26.76%)

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

Joachim Reitner focuses on Geochemistry, Paleontology, Carbonate, Archean and Microbial mat. His Authigenic, Diagenesis and Volcano study in the realm of Geochemistry connects with subjects such as Trace. His research on Paleontology often connects related areas such as Reef.

His Carbonate research includes elements of Biodiversity, Stratotype, Marl, Sedimentary rock and Permian. His Microbial mat research includes themes of Organic matter, Oscillatoriales, Water column, Environmental chemistry and Massif. His Environmental chemistry research incorporates elements of Kerogen and Anoxygenic photosynthesis.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sponge-microbial build-ups from the lowermost Triassic Chanakhchi section in southern Armenia: Microfacies and stable carbon isotopes (28 citations)
  • The formation of microbial-metazoan bioherms and biostromes following the latest Permian mass extinction (21 citations)
  • Tracing the fate of steroids through a hypersaline microbial mat (Kiritimati, Kiribati/Central Pacific). (11 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Genus
  • Ecology

Diagenesis, Carbonate, Geochemistry, Environmental chemistry and Chemosynthesis are his primary areas of study. His work investigates the relationship between Diagenesis and topics such as Anoxygenic photosynthesis that intersect with problems in Permian–Triassic extinction event, Early Triassic, Paleoecology and Reef. He studies Carbonate, focusing on Authigenic in particular.

In his research, Proterozoic, Seawater, Isotopes of oxygen, Archean and Archaeol is intimately related to Hydrothermal circulation, which falls under the overarching field of Geochemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Hydrous pyrolysis, Posidonia Shale, Oil shale and Pyrite in addition to Environmental chemistry. Joachim Reitner interconnects Microorganism, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria and Cold seep, Siboglinidae in the investigation of issues within Chemosynthesis.
