Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Genus
  • Cretaceous
  • Paleontology

Leonardo Salgado focuses on Paleontology, Anatomy, Cretaceous, Titanosaur and Sauropoda. His Paleontology research incorporates themes from Deinocheirus, Coelurosauria and Diplodocoidea. His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Brachiosaurus, Lithostrotia, Ornithopod and Alamosaurus.

He combines subjects such as Eusauropoda, Brachiosauridae, Epachthosaurus, Camarasauridae and Opisthocoelicaudia with his study of Brachiosaurus. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Taxon and Zoology. Leonardo Salgado interconnects Saurischia, Evolutionary developmental biology and Vertebra in the investigation of issues within Sauropoda.

His most cited work include:

  • EVOLUTION OF TITANOSAURID SAUROPODS. 1:PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS BASED ON THE POSTCRANIAL EVIDENCE (320 citations)
  • A new giant carnivorous dinosaur from the Cretaceous of Patagonia (140 citations)
  • A NEW SPECIMEN OF NEUQUENSAURUS AUSTRALIS, A LATE CRETACEOUS SALTASAURINE TITANOSAUR FROM NORTH PATAGONIA (106 citations)

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

Leonardo Salgado spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Cretaceous, Sauropoda, Anatomy and Titanosaur. His Paleontology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Autapomorphy, Holotype and Diplodocoidea. His research integrates issues of Zoology and Archipelago in his study of Cretaceous.

His Sauropoda study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Saurischia, Sister group, Osteology and Type specimen. His Anatomy research integrates issues from Ornithischia, Femur, Alamosaurus, Epachthosaurus and Brachiosaurus. His studies deal with areas such as Bauru Group, Lamina and Vertebra as well as Titanosaur.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (61.76%)
  • Cretaceous (50.00%)
  • Sauropoda (32.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2020)?

  • Paleontology (61.76%)
  • Cretaceous (50.00%)
  • Titanosaur (23.53%)

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

Paleontology, Cretaceous, Titanosaur, Clade and Sauropoda are his primary areas of study. His studies link Diplodocoidea with Paleontology. His Cretaceous research includes elements of Taxon, Juvenile, Taphonomy and Holotype.

His research investigates the connection with Titanosaur and areas like Anatomy which intersect with concerns in Type specimen. In Clade, Leonardo Salgado works on issues like Period, which are connected to Lineage, Body size and Zoology. The various areas that Leonardo Salgado examines in his Sauropoda study include Foramen magnum and Sister group.

Between 2013 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • A new giant titanosaur sheds light on body mass evolution among sauropod dinosaurs (57 citations)
  • Vegasaurus molyi, gen. et sp. nov. (Plesiosauria, Elasmosauridae), from the Cape Lamb Member (lower maastrichtian) of the Snow Hill Island Formation, Vega Island, Antarctica, and remarks on Wedellian Elasmosauridae (37 citations)
  • Redescription of Bonatitan reigi (Sauropoda: Titanosauria), from the Campanian–Maastrichtian of the Río Negro Province (Argentina) (24 citations)

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

  • Genus
  • Paleontology
  • Cretaceous

Leonardo Salgado mainly investigates Cretaceous, Paleontology, Plesiosauria, Holotype and Elasmosauridae. The Cretaceous study combines topics in areas such as Zoology, Period, Clade, Lineage and Body size. His study in Paleontology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Foramen magnum, Anatomy and Sister group.

The concepts of his Anatomy study are interwoven with issues in Saltasaurinae, Sauropoda and Type specimen. Leonardo Salgado has included themes like Juvenile and Postcrania in his Plesiosauria study. Leonardo Salgado has researched Holotype in several fields, including Vegasaurus and Archipelago.
