What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
John A. Matthews mainly investigates Glacier, Physical geography, Holocene, Geomorphology and Moraine.
His Glacier research integrates issues from Glacial period, Deglaciation, Climatology and Climate change.
His work carried out in the field of Physical geography brings together such families of science as Ice age and Chronology.
He has included themes like Radiocarbon dating and Quaternary in his Holocene study.
His research integrates issues of Sedimentary rock and Podzol in his study of Geomorphology.
His work on Glacier foreland as part of general Moraine study is frequently linked to Schmidt hammer, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His most cited work include:
- THE 'LITTLE ICE AGE': RE-EVALUATION OF AN EVOLVING CONCEPT (353 citations)
- Holocene glacier fluctuations of Flatebreen and winter-precipitation changes in the Jostedalsbreen region, western Norvay, based on glaciolacustrine sediment records: (266 citations)
- Norwegian mountain glaciers in the past, present and future (186 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
John A. Matthews spends much of his time researching Holocene, Physical geography, Glacier, Geomorphology and Moraine.
His work in the fields of Neoglaciation and Younger Dryas overlaps with other areas such as Schmidt hammer.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Permafrost, Deglaciation, Chronology and Rhizocarpon in addition to Physical geography.
The various areas that John A. Matthews examines in his Glacier study include Glacial period, Ice age, Climatology and Climate change.
As part of his studies on Geomorphology, John A. Matthews frequently links adjacent subjects like Debris.
His studies in Moraine integrate themes in fields like Preboreal, Ridge and Glacier mass balance.
He most often published in these fields:
- Holocene (37.67%)
- Physical geography (34.42%)
- Glacier (33.49%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?
- Holocene (37.67%)
- Physical geography (34.42%)
- Schmidt hammer (12.09%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Holocene, Physical geography, Schmidt hammer, Geomorphology and Glacier.
His Holocene study combines topics in areas such as Glacial period, Climate change and Landform.
He has researched Climate change in several fields, including Adaptation, Climatology, Front and Glacier mass balance.
His work on Neoglaciation is typically connected to Altitude as part of general Physical geography study, connecting several disciplines of science.
His Geomorphology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sedimentary rock and Roundness.
His Glacier study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Younger Dryas and Ice core.
Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Schmidt‐hammer exposure‐age dating (SHD): application to early Holocene moraines and a reappraisal of the reliability of terrestrial cosmogenic‐nuclide dating (TCND) at Austanbotnbreen, Jotunheimen, Norway (42 citations)
- The Schmidt hammer as a Holocene calibrated-age dating technique: Testing the form of the R-value-age relationship and defining the predicted-age errors (36 citations)
- Pronival rampart formation in relation to snow-avalanche activity and Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating (SHD): Three case studies from southern Norway (31 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His primary areas of investigation include Schmidt hammer, Geomorphology, Holocene, Physical geography and Glacier.
His work on Bedrock and Last Glacial Maximum as part of general Geomorphology study is frequently connected to R-value and Hammer, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
His study in Holocene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Glacial period and Sand dune stabilization.
His Physical geography research incorporates themes from Aeolian processes, Radiocarbon dating, Thermoluminescence dating, Permafrost and Chronology.
His biological study focuses on Moraine.
His studies deal with areas such as Ecological succession and Transect as well as Moraine.
