His work in Most probable number tackles topics such as Methane which are related to areas like Igneous rock, Biomass and Microorganism.
His Aquifer study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sulfate-reducing bacteria, Contamination and Mineralogy.
His most cited work include:
- Exploration of deep intraterrestrial microbial life: current perspectives (287 citations)
- Microbial life in deep granitic rock (269 citations)
- Biofilm development on stainless steel and PVC surfaces in drinking water (200 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Karsten Pedersen mainly investigates Groundwater, Environmental chemistry, Bacteria, Ecology and Mineralogy.
His Groundwater research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Microorganism, Sulfate-reducing bacteria, Total organic carbon and Radioactive waste.
His work carried out in the field of Environmental chemistry brings together such families of science as Biofilm, Ferrous, Metal, Heterotroph and Sulfate.
His Bacteria study incorporates themes from Botany and Microbiology.
As a part of the same scientific family, Karsten Pedersen mostly works in the field of Ecology, focusing on Autotroph and, on occasion, Archaea and Methanogenesis.
As part of one scientific family, Karsten Pedersen deals mainly with the area of Mineralogy, narrowing it down to issues related to the Bentonite, and often Sulfur and Corrosion.
