Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Bacteria

J.S. Sinninghe Damsté mainly investigates Oceanography, Total organic carbon, Paleontology, Photic zone and Archaea. His research brings together the fields of Sedimentary rock and Oceanography. The concepts of his Total organic carbon study are interwoven with issues in Organic matter, Kerogen, Algaenan, Geochemistry and Nannochloropsis sp..

His Photic zone research includes elements of Sterane, Hopanoids, Isotopes of carbon and Anoxic waters. His Archaea study incorporates themes from Environmental chemistry, Anaerobic oxidation of methane, Methane and Glycerol. The study incorporates disciplines such as Glacial period and Vegetation in addition to Holocene.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence for gammacerane as an indicator of water column stratification (626 citations)
  • Revised calibration of the MBT–CBT paleotemperature proxy based on branched tetraether membrane lipids in surface soils (276 citations)
  • Application of biological markers in the recognition of palaeohypersaline environments (235 citations)

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

J.S. Sinninghe Damsté focuses on Oceanography, Sediment, Environmental chemistry, Paleontology and Ecology. His studies deal with areas such as Sedimentary rock and Organic matter as well as Oceanography. His Organic matter research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Total organic carbon and Terrigenous sediment.

His Environmental chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sulfur, Isotopes of carbon, Archaea, Mineralogy and Methane. His Archaea research integrates issues from Carbonate and Cold seep. His research investigates the link between Paleontology and topics such as Geochemistry that cross with problems in Anaerobic oxidation of methane.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (42.71%)
  • Sediment (14.06%)
  • Environmental chemistry (13.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Oceanography (42.71%)
  • Sediment (14.06%)
  • Holocene (11.98%)

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

J.S. Sinninghe Damsté spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Sediment, Holocene, Sea surface temperature and Sedimentary rock. The concepts of his Oceanography study are interwoven with issues in Organic matter and Particulates. His study looks at the relationship between Sediment and topics such as Environmental chemistry, which overlap with Methanotroph, Petroleum seep, Hydrogen and Oxygen minimum zone.

His work on Last Glacial Maximum as part of general Holocene research is often related to Distribution, thus linking different fields of science. His Sea surface temperature study combines topics in areas such as Continental shelf and Upwelling. His Sedimentary rock research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Proxy and Provenance.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Spatial heterogeneity of sources of branched tetraethers in shelf systems : The geochemistry of tetraethers in the Berau River delta (Kalimantan, Indonesia) (83 citations)
  • Climate variability and ocean fertility during the Aptian Stage (61 citations)
  • A perturbed hydrological cycle during Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (57 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Bacteria

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, TEX86, Sediment, Sea surface temperature and Organic matter. The study incorporates disciplines such as Soil water and Seasonality in addition to Oceanography. His TEX86 research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Volcano, Stage, Paleontology and Anoxic waters.

His Sea surface temperature study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ocean gyre, Last Glacial Maximum, Holocene and Mediterranean climate, Mediterranean sea. His study in Organic matter is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Structural basin, Total organic carbon, Pleistocene, Sedimentary rock and Provenance. His Total organic carbon study is concerned with the field of Environmental chemistry as a whole.
