Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Glacier

Jørgen Peder Steffensen mostly deals with Ice core, Oceanography, Glacial period, Paleontology and Climatology. The Ice core study combines topics in areas such as North Greenland Ice Core Project, Paleoclimatology, Ice sheet, Holocene and Ice-sheet model. His Ice-sheet model research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Greenland ice core project, Greenland ice sheet and European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica.

Jørgen Peder Steffensen works mostly in the field of Oceanography, limiting it down to concerns involving Interglacial and, occasionally, Climate change. As part of his studies on Glacial period, he often connects relevant areas like Physical geography. His study looks at the intersection of Paleontology and topics like Ice stream with Firn, Arctic ice pack and Quaternary.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence for general instability of past climate from a 250-kyr ice-core record (3622 citations)
  • High-resolution record of Northern Hemisphere climate extending into the last interglacial period. (1980 citations)
  • Eight glacial cycles from an Antarctic ice core (1672 citations)

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

Jørgen Peder Steffensen spends much of his time researching Ice core, Glacial period, Oceanography, Climatology and Ice sheet. Jørgen Peder Steffensen has researched Ice core in several fields, including Volcano, Dome, Paleontology, Holocene and Physical geography. His Glacial period study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climate change and Atmospheric sciences.

When carried out as part of a general Oceanography research project, his work on Dye 3 and Younger Dryas is frequently linked to work in Climate state, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Cryosphere and Proxy study in the realm of Climatology interacts with subjects such as Geomagnetic excursion and Abrupt climate change. Jørgen Peder Steffensen interconnects Greenland ice core project, Paleoclimatology, European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica and Ice-sheet model in the investigation of issues within Ice sheet.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ice core (80.46%)
  • Glacial period (25.86%)
  • Oceanography (23.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Ice core (80.46%)
  • Physical geography (16.09%)
  • Ice sheet (20.11%)

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

Jørgen Peder Steffensen mainly focuses on Ice core, Physical geography, Ice sheet, Climatology and Greenland ice sheet. The various areas that Jørgen Peder Steffensen examines in his Ice core study include Volcano, Tephra, Paleontology and Arctic ice pack. His studies examine the connections between Paleontology and genetics, as well as such issues in Oceanography, with regards to Basalt.

His work focuses on many connections between Physical geography and other disciplines, such as Glacial period, that overlap with his field of interest in Sea ice. His Ice sheet study incorporates themes from Cryosphere, Geophysics and Greenland ice core project. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Climate change, Paleoclimatology and Surface water.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A new bipolar ice core record of volcanism from WAIS Divide and NEEM and implications for climate forcing of the last 2000 years (145 citations)
  • Continuous monitoring of summer surface water vapor isotopic composition above the Greenland Ice Sheet (107 citations)
  • A first chronology for the North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling (NEEM) ice core (94 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Glacier

His primary areas of investigation include Ice core, Climatology, Volcano, Ice sheet and Physical geography. His biological study deals with issues like Eemian, which deal with fields such as Sea salt aerosol and Holocene. His work is dedicated to discovering how Climatology, Paleoclimatology are connected with Cryosphere, Antarctic ice sheet and Atmospheric sciences and other disciplines.

His Ice sheet study combines topics in areas such as Glacial period, Sea ice, Sea ice growth processes and Borehole. His research integrates issues of Arctic ice pack and Lead in his study of Physical geography. His Tephra study which covers Chronology that intersects with Firn, Oceanography, Basalt, Geomorphology and Climate events.
