Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Erosion
  • Paleontology
  • Ecosystem

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Weathering, Mineralogy, Silicate, Paleontology and Dissolution. Her Weathering research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil science, Soil water, Dilution and Chemical composition. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Soil science, Organic matter and Soil production function is strongly linked to Hydrology.

Her research integrates issues of Drainage basin, Carbon cycle, Forcing and Earth science in her study of Mineralogy. Her Silicate research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Tectonics, Volumetric flow rate, Vadose zone, Groundwater and Infiltration. Her studies deal with areas such as Fluid dynamics, Clay minerals and Aquifer as well as Dissolution.

Her most cited work include:

  • The dependence of chemical weathering rates on fluid residence time (274 citations)
  • Hydrologic Regulation of Chemical Weathering and the Geologic Carbon Cycle (268 citations)
  • The role of reaction affinity and secondary minerals in regulating chemical weathering rates at the Santa Cruz Soil Chronosequence, California (216 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Weathering, Geochemistry, Hydrology, Environmental chemistry and Mineralogy. Her Weathering research includes elements of Soil science, Carbon cycle, Earth science and Silicate. The concepts of her Geochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Glacial period and Paleontology.

Her work on Aquifer, Hydrology, Residence time and Drainage basin as part of general Hydrology study is frequently linked to Biogeosciences, bridging the gap between disciplines. Kate Maher focuses mostly in the field of Environmental chemistry, narrowing it down to matters related to Groundwater and, in some cases, Sediment. Within one scientific family, Kate Maher focuses on topics pertaining to Dissolution under Mineralogy, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Plagioclase.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Weathering (18.25%)
  • Geochemistry (17.52%)
  • Hydrology (18.25%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Soil carbon (3.65%)
  • Hydrology (18.25%)
  • Plant phenology (2.92%)

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

Kate Maher mainly focuses on Soil carbon, Hydrology, Plant phenology, Soil respiration and Montane ecology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Organic matter, Climate change mitigation, Decomposer and Soil management in addition to Soil carbon. Her Groundwater, Infiltration and Aquifer study in the realm of Hydrology connects with subjects such as Riparian zone.

Between 2019 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Persistence of soil organic carbon caused by functional complexity (36 citations)
  • Uranium reduction and isotopic fractionation in reducing sediments: Insights from reactive transport modeling (8 citations)
  • A model for kinetic isotope fractionation during redox reactions (3 citations)

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

  • Erosion
  • Paleontology
  • Climate change

Her primary areas of investigation include Equilibrium fractionation, Isotope fractionation, Redox, Electron transfer and Reaction rate constant. Many of her studies involve connections with topics such as Kinetic fractionation and Equilibrium fractionation.
