Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Internal medicine
  • Hydrology

His primary areas of study are Environmental chemistry, Hydrology, Sediment, Chromium and Isotope analysis. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Organic matter, Soil water, Trace element, Arsenic and Hexavalent chromium. In Soil water, John G. Farmer works on issues like Extraction, which are connected to Soil chemistry.

John G. Farmer has included themes like Leaded petrol, Pollution and Lead pollution in his Hydrology study. His Chromium research includes themes of Leaching, Brucite, Hydroxide and Chromite. His Isotope analysis research incorporates elements of Lead Radioisotopes, Estuary, Sphagnum Mosses, Sphagnum and Physical geography.

His most cited work include:

  • Multi-step sequential chemical extraction of heavy metals from urban soils (170 citations)
  • Stable Lead Isotope Record of Lead Pollution in Loch Lomond Sediments since 1630 A.D. (167 citations)
  • Identification and geochemical modeling of processes controlling leaching of Cr(VI) and other major elements from chromite ore processing residue (128 citations)

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

John G. Farmer mostly deals with Environmental chemistry, Soil water, Sediment, Hydrology and Contamination. His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Organic matter, Soil contamination, Environmental engineering, Arsenic and Chromium. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Extraction, Mineralogy and Depleted uranium.

While the research belongs to areas of Sediment, John G. Farmer spends his time largely on the problem of Physical geography, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Chronology. The Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Peat, Isotope analysis and Pollution. His Peat study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary depositional environment, Moss and Deposition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (43.38%)
  • Soil water (18.38%)
  • Sediment (16.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2017)?

  • Environmental chemistry (43.38%)
  • Soil water (18.38%)
  • Soil contamination (8.82%)

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

John G. Farmer spends much of his time researching Environmental chemistry, Soil water, Soil contamination, Peat and Contamination. His research in Environmental chemistry intersects with topics in Uranium, Sediment and Manganese. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Horizon, Mineralogy, Extraction and Mineral.

His Soil contamination study incorporates themes from Organic matter, Environmental engineering, Soil test, Fractionation and Chromium. He combines subjects such as Hydrology and Deposition with his study of Peat. His research investigates the connection between Contamination and topics such as Arsenic that intersect with issues in Antimony, Dissolved organic carbon and Phosphorus.

Between 2007 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Determination of the bioaccessibility of chromium in Glasgow soil and the implications for human health risk assessment (99 citations)
  • Historical records of atmospheric Pb deposition in four Scottish ombrotrophic peat bogs: An isotopic comparison with other records from western Europe and Greenland (79 citations)
  • A lead isotopic study of the human bioaccessibility of lead in urban soils from Glasgow, Scotland (74 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry

John G. Farmer mainly investigates Environmental chemistry, Soil water, Bog, Deposition and Ombrotrophic. John G. Farmer has researched Environmental chemistry in several fields, including Chromium, Metallurgy, Environmental remediation, Biological availability and Soil chemistry. His work on Soil contamination is typically connected to Spectrum analysis as part of general Soil water study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His study in Bog is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sedimentary rock, Air pollution and Chronology. The various areas that he examines in his Deposition study include Trace element, Peat, Sphagnum, Physical geography and Mercury. His research integrates issues of Hydrology and Moss in his study of Ombrotrophic.
