Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Glacier
  • Paleontology
  • Ice age

Ice sheet, Oceanography, Antarctic sea ice, Arctic ice pack and Paleontology are his primary areas of study. His Ice sheet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sea ice and Climatology. His Oceanography study focuses on Last Glacial Maximum in particular.

Within one scientific family, John Inge Svendsen focuses on topics pertaining to Ice stream under Antarctic sea ice, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Ice age and Ice shelf. His biological study focuses on Ice-sheet model. His Radiocarbon dating study incorporates themes from Younger Dryas, Continental shelf, Quaternary, Deglaciation and Human evolution.

His most cited work include:

  • Late quaternary ice sheet history of northern Eurasia (1086 citations)
  • The last Eurasian ice sheets - a chronological database and time-slice reconstruction, DATED-1 (436 citations)
  • THE LAST GLACIAL MAXIMUM OF SVALBARD AND THE BARENTS SEA AREA: ICE SHEET EXTENT AND CONFIGURATION (311 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ice sheet, Physical geography, Glacial period, Paleontology and Oceanography. His work carried out in the field of Ice sheet brings together such families of science as Ice stream, Arctic ice pack, Antarctic sea ice, Deglaciation and Last Glacial Maximum. In his study, Glacier morphology is inextricably linked to Ice shelf, which falls within the broad field of Ice stream.

John Inge Svendsen works on Arctic ice pack which deals in particular with Ice-sheet model. His study in Physical geography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Younger Dryas, Holocene, Ice core and Arctic. His Glacial period research incorporates themes from Glacier, Climatology, Climate history and Diamicton.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ice sheet (48.39%)
  • Physical geography (46.45%)
  • Glacial period (41.94%)

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

  • Physical geography (46.45%)
  • Arctic (22.58%)
  • Glacial period (41.94%)

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

John Inge Svendsen spends much of his time researching Physical geography, Arctic, Glacial period, Holocene and Deglaciation. His study looks at the relationship between Physical geography and fields such as Chronology, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. Many of his research projects under Arctic are closely connected to Polar with Polar, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His Holocene study is focused on Paleontology in general. His Deglaciation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Preboreal, Tectonic uplift, Sea level change, Ice sheet and Sea-level curve. His Ice sheet study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Outburst flood, Glacier, Younger Dryas, Fjord and Last Glacial Maximum.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Holocene Thermal Maximum around Svalbard, Arctic North Atlantic; molluscs show early and exceptional warmth: (30 citations)
  • Glacial and environmental changes over the last 60 000 years in the Polar Ural Mountains, Arctic Russia, inferred from a high‐resolution lake record and other observations from adjacent areas (15 citations)
  • Glacial and environmental changes over the last 60 000 years in the Polar Ural Mountains, Arctic Russia, inferred from a high‐resolution lake record and other observations from adjacent areas (15 citations)

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

  • Glacier
  • Pleistocene
  • Ice age

John Inge Svendsen mostly deals with Arctic, Polar, Glacial period, Physical geography and Geochemistry. Arctic is a subfield of Oceanography that John Inge Svendsen investigates. The concepts of his Oceanography study are interwoven with issues in Period and Sediment.

His Glacial period research includes elements of Ecology, Ecosystem, Vegetation, Habitat and Environmental change. His Physical geography study incorporates themes from Varve and Climate history. The concepts of his Holocene study are interwoven with issues in Arctic ice pack, Mytilus and Arctica islandica.
