Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography
  • Ecology

His main research concerns Oceanography, Paleontology, Holocene, Diatom and Upwelling. His Oceanography research integrates issues from Pleistocene, Pliocene climate and Water cycle. His Paleontology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Deep sea.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Global cooling, Sea level and Antarctic Bottom Water in addition to Deep sea. His work carried out in the field of Holocene brings together such families of science as Monsoon, Climate change and Pacific decadal oscillation. His Diatom study incorporates themes from Biostratigraphy, Period, Quaternary and Terrigenous sediment.

His most cited work include:

  • Paleoceanographic implications of Miocene deep-sea hiatuses (255 citations)
  • Middle Pliocene sea surface temperatures: a global reconstruction (225 citations)
  • High-resolution climatic evolution of coastal northern California during the past 16,000 years (195 citations)

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

John A. Barron mainly focuses on Oceanography, Paleontology, Diatom, Biostratigraphy and Holocene. His work on Climatology expands to the thematically related Oceanography. His work deals with themes such as Deep sea and Drilling, which intersect with Paleontology.

His Diatom research also works with subjects such as

  • Quaternary that connect with fields like Pleistocene,
  • Table together with Mineralogy and Benthic zone. He has researched Biostratigraphy in several fields, including Cenozoic and Paleogene. His work in the fields of Younger Dryas overlaps with other areas such as Guaymas Basin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (54.42%)
  • Paleontology (40.47%)
  • Diatom (31.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Oceanography (54.42%)
  • Holocene (14.42%)
  • Diatom (31.16%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Oceanography, Holocene, Diatom, Climatology and Upwelling. Oceanography is often connected to Terrigenous sediment in his work. His work deals with themes such as North American Monsoon, Pacific decadal oscillation and Global change, which intersect with Holocene.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Foraminifera and Biostratigraphy, Paleontology. John A. Barron combines subjects such as Pollen, Drilling and Sea level with his study of Paleontology. He has included themes like Subtropics, Surface water, Marine Isotope Stage 5, North Pacific High and Monsoon in his Upwelling study.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Enhanced Late Holocene ENSO/PDO expression along the margins of the eastern North Pacific (108 citations)
  • Out of the Tropics: The Pacific, Great Basin Lakes, and Late Pleistocene Water Cycle in the Western United States (91 citations)
  • The Holocene history of the North American Monsoon: 'known knowns' and 'known unknowns' in understanding its spatial and temporal complexity (85 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Oceanography

John A. Barron focuses on Oceanography, Paleoclimatology, Upwelling, Climatology and Diatom. His study in Oceanography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Subtropics, Glacial period and Northern Hemisphere. Pleistocene is closely connected to Water cycle in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Glacial period.

His Upwelling study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Structural basin and Terrigenous sediment. His studies in Climatology integrate themes in fields like Salinity and Stream flow. His Diatom study combines topics in areas such as Neogene, Carbon cycle, Biological pump and Plankton.
