John Shaw

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Sediment
• Sedimentary rock
• Erosion

John Shaw focuses on Geomorphology, Meltwater, Drumlin, Bedrock and Paleontology. His study in Geomorphology concentrates on Glacier and Sediment. The various areas that John Shaw examines in his Meltwater study include Moraine, Hydrology, Erosion, Bedform and Ice sheet.

He combines Drumlin and Landform in his studies. His Sedimentology, Sedimentary rock and Clastic rock study in the realm of Paleontology connects with subjects such as Stratigraphy. His Sedimentary rock research also works with subjects such as

• Pleistocene that intertwine with fields like Facies,
• Plage which connect with Sea level.

His most cited work include:

• Morphodynamic evolution, self-organisation, and instability of coarse-clastic barriers on paraglacial coasts (139 citations)
• Erosion of bedrock by subglacial meltwater, Georgian Bay, Ontario: a regional view (135 citations)
• Drumlin formation related to inverted melt-water erosional marks (129 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Oceanography, Bay, Nova scotia, Seafloor spreading and Submarine pipeline. His work deals with themes such as Glacial period and Backscatter, which intersect with Oceanography. Meltwater is the focus of his Glacial period research.

In his work, Moraine is strongly intertwined with Ice sheet, which is a subfield of Meltwater. John Shaw interconnects Radiocarbon dating, Trough and Cruise in the investigation of issues within Bay. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Geomorphology, concentrating on Sedimentary rock and frequently concerns with Facies.

He most often published in these fields:

• Oceanography (61.84%)
• Bay (44.08%)
• Nova scotia (30.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

• Oceanography (61.84%)
• Bay (44.08%)
• Seafloor spreading (29.61%)

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

John Shaw spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Bay, Seafloor spreading, Nova scotia and Submarine pipeline. His studies in Oceanography integrate themes in fields like Glacial period, Sediment, Geomorphology and Quaternary. His Sediment research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary rock and Shoal.

Many of his studies on Geomorphology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Coastal geography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Bedrock, Range and Bedform in addition to Bay. His work carried out in the field of Moraine brings together such families of science as Meltwater and Ice sheet.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Catastrophic tidal expansion in the Bay of Fundy, CanadaEarth Sciences Sector (ESS) Contribution 20090423. (35 citations)
• Distribution of subtidal sedimentary bedforms in a macrotidal setting: The Bay of Fundy, Atlantic Canada (25 citations)
• Anatomy of the tidal scour system at Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy, Canada (25 citations)

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

• Sedimentary rock
• Sediment
• Oceanography

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Bay, Glacial period, Seafloor spreading and Bedform. In most of his Oceanography studies, his work intersects topics such as Meltwater. His Bay research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bedrock and Range.

John Shaw has included themes like Iceberg, Fjord and Quaternary in his Glacial period study. His Bedform research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Barchan and Trough. His Holocene research incorporates themes from Sedimentary rock, Sediment and Shoal.
