Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Climate change

Paleomagnetism, Paleontology, Mineralogy, Seismology and Magnetostratigraphy are his primary areas of study. His Paleomagnetism study incorporates themes from Structural basin, Sedimentary rock, Diagenesis, Greigite and Clockwise. His Paleontology research includes elements of Sea ice, Ice stream and Antarctic ice sheet.

The Mineralogy study combines topics in areas such as Environmental magnetism, Particulates and Nuclear magnetic resonance. In Seismology, Leonardo Sagnotti works on issues like Quaternary, which are connected to Pyroclastic rock, Volcano, Lava and Holocene. His Magnetostratigraphy research incorporates themes from Glacier, Chronology and Subaerial.

His most cited work include:

  • Obliquity-paced Pliocene West Antarctic ice sheet oscillations (438 citations)
  • Orbitally induced oscillations in the East Antarctic ice sheet at the Oligocene/Miocene boundary (202 citations)
  • Age of the Corsica-Sardinia rotation and Liguro-Provencal Basin spreading: new paleomagnetic and Ar/Ar evidence (191 citations)

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

Leonardo Sagnotti focuses on Paleontology, Paleomagnetism, Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry and Seismology. His Paleomagnetism research includes themes of Greigite, Neogene, Pleistocene and Clockwise. Leonardo Sagnotti focuses mostly in the field of Sedimentary rock, narrowing it down to topics relating to Continental shelf and, in certain cases, Continental margin.

Leonardo Sagnotti studied Geochemistry and Sediment that intersect with Diagenesis. His research in Seismology intersects with topics in Quaternary and Borehole. His study focuses on the intersection of Glacial period and fields such as Ice sheet with connections in the field of Antarctic ice sheet and Ice stream.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (40.11%)
  • Paleomagnetism (27.68%)
  • Sedimentary rock (17.51%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Paleontology (40.11%)
  • Geochemistry (15.82%)
  • Paleomagnetism (27.68%)

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

Leonardo Sagnotti mostly deals with Paleontology, Geochemistry, Paleomagnetism, Sediment and Drill. His research on Paleontology frequently links to adjacent areas such as Middle latitudes. Leonardo Sagnotti has researched Geochemistry in several fields, including Mineral and Sediment core.

His Paleomagnetism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Holocene, Geomagnetic pole and Latitude. Leonardo Sagnotti interconnects Sedimentary rock, Pollen, Chronology and Diagenesis in the investigation of issues within Sediment. His studies in Drill integrate themes in fields like Volcano and Glacial period.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mediterranean winter rainfall in phase with African monsoons during the past 1.36 million years (40 citations)
  • Historical ecology reveals landscape transformation coincident with cultural development in central Italy since the Roman Period (15 citations)
  • The Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) for the base of the Chattian Stage (Paleogene System, Oligocene Series) at Monte Cagnero, Italy (10 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Climate change

Leonardo Sagnotti spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Paleontology, Mineral, Sediment and Diagenesis. The concepts of his Geochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Structural basin and Sediment transport. As part of his studies on Paleontology, he often connects relevant areas like Sill.

The various areas that Leonardo Sagnotti examines in his Mineral study include Point, Grain size and Heavy metals, Street dust. His research in Sediment focuses on subjects like Greigite, which are connected to Paleomagnetism. His study ties his expertise on Sedimentary rock together with the subject of Paleomagnetism.
