Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Internal medicine

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Environmental chemistry, Hexachlorobenzene, Mediterranean sea and Glacial period. Her research in Oceanography intersects with topics in Mediterranean climate and Climatology. Her Environmental chemistry research incorporates themes from Organic matter, Soil contamination, Aerosol, Hydrology and Hydrocarbon.

Her Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sediment, Particulates and Altitude. Her Hexachlorobenzene study combines topics in areas such as Fetus, Internal medicine, Persistent organic pollutant and Endocrinology. Joan O. Grimalt has researched Glacial period in several fields, including δ18O and Climate change.

Her most cited work include:

  • East Asian monsoon climate during the Late Pleistocene: high-resolution sediment records from the south China Sea (598 citations)
  • Aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons in different sized aerosols over the Mediterranean Sea: Occurrence and origin (538 citations)
  • Dansgaard-Oeschger and Heinrich event imprints in Alboran Sea paleotemperatures (475 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Oceanography, Hexachlorobenzene, Chromatography and Pollutant. Her Environmental chemistry research includes themes of Sediment, Ecology, Particulates and Hydrocarbon. Joan O. Grimalt interconnects Glacial period and Mediterranean sea in the investigation of issues within Oceanography.

Mediterranean climate covers Joan O. Grimalt research in Mediterranean sea. Joan O. Grimalt focuses mostly in the field of Hexachlorobenzene, narrowing it down to matters related to Endocrinology and, in some cases, Pregnancy. Her research in Sea surface temperature focuses on subjects like Sediment core, which are connected to Isotopes of carbon.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (30.01%)
  • Oceanography (19.51%)
  • Hexachlorobenzene (12.28%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Environmental chemistry (30.01%)
  • Pollutant (9.00%)
  • Oceanography (19.51%)

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

Joan O. Grimalt mostly deals with Environmental chemistry, Pollutant, Oceanography, Hexachlorobenzene and Pregnancy. Her Environmental chemistry research includes elements of Particulates and Aerosol. Joan O. Grimalt has included themes like Pesticide, Prenatal exposure and Altitude in her Pollutant study.

Her Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacial period, Interglacial and Mediterranean sea. In Hexachlorobenzene, Joan O. Grimalt works on issues like Environmental health, which are connected to Breastfeeding. Her Pregnancy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Cohort study and Physiology.

Between 2012 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Interglacials of the last 800,000 years (197 citations)
  • Transport of persistent organic pollutants across the human placenta. (120 citations)
  • Similarities and dissimilarities between the last two deglaciations and interglaciations in the North Atlantic region (119 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Internal medicine

Her primary scientific interests are in Environmental chemistry, Pregnancy, Oceanography, Environmental health and Glacial period. Her Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Pollutant, Urban background, Particulates, Aerosol and Urine. She combines subjects such as Internal medicine, Cohort study, Endocrinology and Obstetrics with her study of Pregnancy.

Her research links Mediterranean sea with Oceanography. As a member of one scientific family, she mostly works in the field of Environmental health, focusing on Birth cohort and, on occasion, Prenatal exposure, Environmental protection and Disease etiology. Her Glacial period research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Climatology and Climate change.
