Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Thermodynamics

His primary areas of study are Sediment, Estuary, Hydrology, Oceanography and Geotechnical engineering. His Sediment study combines topics in areas such as Settling and Shear stress. His Estuary research includes elements of Water column, Hydrography, Turbidity, Plankton and Diel vertical migration.

His work deals with themes such as Plume, Tidal prism, Sea level and Return flow, which intersect with Hydrology. His Oceanography research includes themes of Phytoplankton and Tributary. The Cohesion research Lawrence P. Sanford does as part of his general Geotechnical engineering study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Maximum difference, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His most cited work include:

  • A unified erosion formulation for fine sediments (253 citations)
  • Temporal and spatial patterns of zooplankton in the Chesapeake Bay turbidity maximum (140 citations)
  • Model for Estimating Tidal Flushing of Small Embayments (137 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Sediment, Oceanography, Hydrology, Estuary and Sediment transport. His Sediment research integrates issues from Settling, Erosion, Water column and Shear stress. Lawrence P. Sanford combines topics linked to Phytoplankton with his work on Oceanography.

His work carried out in the field of Hydrology brings together such families of science as Organic matter, Tropical cyclone, Compaction and Storm. His Estuary research incorporates themes from Stratification, Bay, Turbidity and Tributary. The Sediment transport study combines topics in areas such as Geotechnical engineering, Forcing and Advection.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Sediment (37.84%)
  • Oceanography (32.43%)
  • Hydrology (31.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Sediment (37.84%)
  • Hydrology (31.08%)
  • Oceanography (32.43%)

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

His main research concerns Sediment, Hydrology, Oceanography, Estuary and Water column. His Sediment study incorporates themes from Tropical cyclone and Flood myth. While working in this field, Lawrence P. Sanford studies both Hydrology and Aquatic plant.

His Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phytoplankton and Riprap. His study in Estuary is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Wind stress, Wave model, Fetch and Wind wave. His Water column study also includes

  • Mesocosm which is related to area like Pelagic zone, Benthic zone, Shear stress and Turbulence,
  • Nutrient which connect with Aquatic ecosystem, Biogeochemical cycle and Nitrate.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sediment deposition from tropical storms in the upper Chesapeake Bay: Field observations and model simulations (35 citations)
  • Abundance and distribution of transparent exopolymer particles in the estuarine turbidity maximum of Chesapeake Bay (23 citations)
  • Mechanisms of Storm-Related Loss and Resilience in a Large Submersed Plant Bed (22 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Thermodynamics
  • Ecology

Sediment, Oceanography, Flood myth, Surface wave and Phytoplankton are his primary areas of study. Lawrence P. Sanford does research in Sediment, focusing on Sedimentation specifically. His work often combines Oceanography and Exopolymer studies.

His Flood myth study results in a more complete grasp of Hydrology. The various areas that Lawrence P. Sanford examines in his Phytoplankton study include Nutrient cycle, Deposition, Sediment trap and Oyster. Lawrence P. Sanford usually deals with Wind wave model and limits it to topics linked to Estuary and Meteorology, Wind wave, Stratification and Tropical cyclone.
