What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Climate change
- Erosion
- Paleontology
Joseph A. Mason focuses on Holocene, Aeolian processes, Climatology, Loess and Physical geography.
His Holocene study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Arid, Vegetation, Paleoclimatology and Geomorphology.
His work carried out in the field of Aeolian processes brings together such families of science as Quaternary and Optical dating.
Many of his research projects under Climatology are closely connected to Oscillation phenomenon and Diffi cult with Oscillation phenomenon and Diffi cult, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
His research ties Ice sheet and Loess together.
As a member of one scientific family, Joseph A. Mason mostly works in the field of Physical geography, focusing on Plateau and, on occasion, Silt.
His most cited work include:
- Equations for Predicting Soil Organic Carbon Using Loss‐on‐Ignition for North Central U.S. Soils (197 citations)
- A 10,000 year record of dune activity, dust storms, and severe drought in the central Great Plains (194 citations)
- Variation of East Asian monsoon precipitation during the past 21 k.y. and potential CO2 forcing (188 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Joseph A. Mason mostly deals with Loess, Physical geography, Aeolian processes, Geomorphology and Holocene.
His Loess research includes themes of Glacial period, Soil water, Pedogenesis, Pleistocene and Geochemistry.
His Physical geography research includes elements of Climate change, Paleoclimatology, Holocene climatic optimum, Thermoluminescence dating and Last Glacial Maximum.
His Aeolian processes research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Outcrop, Hydrology, Erosion, Arid and Optical dating.
Joseph A. Mason works mostly in the field of Geomorphology, limiting it down to topics relating to Quaternary and, in certain cases, Younger Dryas, Fluvial, Cenozoic and Atmospheric circulation, as a part of the same area of interest.
His Holocene study incorporates themes from Climatology, Period, Deposition, Vegetation and Wetland.
He most often published in these fields:
- Loess (53.10%)
- Physical geography (33.63%)
- Aeolian processes (33.63%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?
- Loess (53.10%)
- Physical geography (33.63%)
- Holocene (29.20%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Loess, Physical geography, Holocene, Pleistocene and Earth science.
His work investigates the relationship between Loess and topics such as Quaternary that intersect with problems in Asian Dust.
His Physical geography research incorporates themes from Sedimentation, Climate change, Paleoclimatology and Last Glacial Maximum.
Joseph A. Mason has researched Holocene in several fields, including Aeolian processes and Radiocarbon dating.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Geochemistry, Colluvium and Chronology in addition to Aeolian processes.
His Earth science research incorporates elements of Greening and Soil water.
Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Approaches and challenges to the study of loess - Introduction to the LoessFest Special Issue (46 citations)
- Recent greening (1981–2013) in the Mu Us dune field, north-central China, and its potential causes (21 citations)
- Seesaw pattern in dust accumulation on the Chinese Loess Plateau forced by late glacial shifts in the East Asian monsoon (17 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Climate change
- Erosion
- Paleontology
Joseph A. Mason mainly investigates Loess, Physical geography, Pleistocene, Holocene and Quaternary.
His Loess study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Sedimentation.
The concepts of his Physical geography study are interwoven with issues in Loess plateau, East Asian Monsoon, Glacial period and Paleoclimatology.
Joseph A. Mason has included themes like Aeolian processes and Radiocarbon dating in his Holocene study.
His Aeolian processes research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Marine isotope stage, Deposition and Chronology.
His Quaternary research integrates issues from Provenance and Last Glacial Maximum.
