Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Oceanography
  • Paleontology

His main research concerns Paleoclimatology, Oceanography, Quaternary, Younger Dryas and Holocene. His work deals with themes such as Glacial period, Deglaciation and Ice sheet, which intersect with Paleoclimatology. His work in the fields of Oceanography, such as Tropical Atlantic, North Atlantic Deep Water and Atlantic Equatorial mode, intersects with other areas such as African easterly jet.

As a part of the same scientific study, Larry C. Peterson usually deals with the Quaternary, concentrating on Climatology and frequently concerns with Milankovitch cycles, 100,000-year problem and Climate state. His work focuses on many connections between Younger Dryas and other disciplines, such as Intertropical Convergence Zone, that overlap with his field of interest in East Asian Monsoon. He interconnects Structural basin, Period, Tropics and Water cycle in the investigation of issues within Holocene.

His most cited work include:

  • Southward Migration of the Intertropical Convergence Zone Through the Holocene (1573 citations)
  • On the Structure and Origin of Major Glaciation Cycles 1. Linear Responses to Milankovitch Forcing (784 citations)
  • On the Structure and Origin of Major Glaciation Cycles .2. the 100,000-year Cycle (739 citations)

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

Larry C. Peterson mainly focuses on Oceanography, Paleoclimatology, Glacial period, Holocene and Climatology. His Oceanography research includes elements of Structural basin, Sediment and Intertropical Convergence Zone. His research integrates issues of Cenozoic, Quaternary, Catastrophism, Ice sheet and Tropical Atlantic in his study of Paleoclimatology.

His Quaternary research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Milankovitch cycles and 100,000-year problem. His Glacial period research includes themes of Foraminifera, Ice core and Anoxic waters. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Effects of global warming and Abrupt climate change.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (48.51%)
  • Paleoclimatology (25.74%)
  • Glacial period (20.79%)

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

  • Geochemistry (12.87%)
  • Oceanography (48.51%)
  • Paleoceanography (7.92%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Oceanography, Paleoceanography, Paleontology and Authigenic. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Proxy and Mineralogy. His study connects Glacial period and Oceanography.

Larry C. Peterson has researched Glacial period in several fields, including Structural basin, Climate change, Paleoclimatology and Sea level. His work on Trough and Siliciclastic as part of general Paleontology study is frequently linked to Edge and Orange, bridging the gap between disciplines. Larry C. Peterson works mostly in the field of Authigenic, limiting it down to topics relating to Seawater and, in certain cases, Sediment, as a part of the same area of interest.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Abrupt climate variability since the last deglaciation based on a high-resolution, multi-proxy peat record from NW Iran: The hand that rocked the Cradle of Civilization? (70 citations)
  • The chromium isotope composition of reducing and oxic marine sediments (51 citations)
  • High-resolution and high-precision correlation of dark and light layers in the Quaternary hemipelagic sediments of the Japan Sea recovered during IODP Expedition 346 (28 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography

Larry C. Peterson mainly investigates Climate change, Land use, Interglacial, Diatom and Oceanography. His studies in Climate change integrate themes in fields like Tropical climate, Tropics and Forcing. The concepts of his Land use study are interwoven with issues in Period, Little ice age, Tropical andes and Disturbance.

He has included themes like Sedimentary depositional environment and Hydrogeology in his Interglacial study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Paleomagnetism, Agriculture and Pollen in addition to Diatom. His Oceanography research integrates issues from Glacial period and Aeolian processes.
