Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Plate tectonics
  • Volcano

Karsten Gohl spends much of his time researching Ice sheet, Ice shelf, Oceanography, Antarctic ice sheet and Antarctic sea ice. His Ice sheet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacier, Continental shelf, Sea ice and Ice stream. His studies examine the connections between Continental shelf and genetics, as well as such issues in Sediment, with regards to Oceanic crust.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Paleontology, Sedimentation and Continental margin. As a member of one scientific family, Karsten Gohl mostly works in the field of Antarctic ice sheet, focusing on Physical geography and, on occasion, Glacier morphology. His Subduction course of study focuses on Crust and Tectonics.

His most cited work include:

  • Deep structure of the Namibia continental margin as derived from integrated geophysical studies (183 citations)
  • A community-based geological reconstruction of Antarctic Ice Sheet deglaciation since the Last Glacial Maximum (161 citations)
  • Geological record and reconstruction of the late Pliocene impact of the Eltanin asteroid in the Southern Ocean (147 citations)

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

Karsten Gohl mostly deals with Oceanography, Sediment core, Paleontology, Ice sheet and Antarctic ice sheet. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Sediment and Oceanography. His research links Geomorphology with Paleontology.

His Ice sheet research includes elements of Glacial period and Cryosphere, Ice shelf, Ice stream, Antarctic sea ice. His Antarctic ice sheet research incorporates themes from Deglaciation and Last Glacial Maximum. His Crust study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Seismology, Fracture zone, Seismic refraction, Large igneous province and Oceanic crust.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (28.54%)
  • Sediment core (25.00%)
  • Paleontology (24.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Paleontology (24.56%)
  • Ice sheet (21.68%)
  • Antarctic ice sheet (18.14%)

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

Karsten Gohl focuses on Paleontology, Ice sheet, Antarctic ice sheet, Oceanography and Glacial period. His Ice sheet study combines topics in areas such as Ice shelf, Ice stream, Antarctic sea ice and Ocean current. As a part of the same scientific family, Karsten Gohl mostly works in the field of Antarctic ice sheet, focusing on Last Glacial Maximum and, on occasion, Glacial landform.

Karsten Gohl works in the field of Oceanography, namely Cryosphere. In his study, Bedrock is inextricably linked to Continental shelf, which falls within the broad field of Glacial period. His research in Geomorphology tackles topics such as Seabed which are related to areas like Trough.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • GlobSed: Updated total sediment thickness in the World’s oceans (51 citations)
  • West Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat driven by Holocene warm water incursions (49 citations)
  • New Magnetic Anomaly Map of the Antarctic (37 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Plate tectonics
  • Volcano

Karsten Gohl mainly investigates Ice sheet, Paleontology, Antarctic ice sheet, Oceanography and Glacial period. The concepts of his Ice sheet study are interwoven with issues in Continental shelf, Ice shelf, Ice stream and Ocean current. His Ice stream research integrates issues from Deglaciation and Antarctic sea ice.

His study on Cenozoic, Seafloor spreading, Cretaceous and Subduction is often connected to Peninsula as part of broader study in Paleontology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Bottom water and Late Miocene in addition to Antarctic ice sheet. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sedimentation and Lithosphere.
