What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Erosion
- Sedimentary rock
His scientific interests lie mostly in Desert pavement, Aeolian processes, Pedogenesis, Geochemistry and Geomorphology.
His Pedogenesis study combines topics in areas such as Growing season and Holocene.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Colluvium and Quaternary.
In his work, Lithology is strongly intertwined with Alluvial fan, which is a subfield of Quaternary.
Leslie D. McFadden combines subjects such as Pleistocene and Soil horizon with his study of Geochemistry.
His Bedrock study, which is part of a larger body of work in Geomorphology, is frequently linked to Stable isotope ratio, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His most cited work include:
- Tectonic Geomorphology North and South of the Garlock Fault, California (350 citations)
- Influences of eolian and pedogenic processes on the origin and evolution of desert pavements (310 citations)
- Seasonal bias in the formation and stable isotopic composition of pedogenic carbonate in modern soils from central New Mexico, USA (280 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Leslie D. McFadden mostly deals with Geomorphology, Quaternary, Geochemistry, Aeolian processes and Soil water.
His study focuses on the intersection of Quaternary and fields such as Earth science with connections in the field of Arid and Soil morphology.
As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Geochemistry, focusing on Pleistocene and, on occasion, Holocene climatic optimum.
His Aeolian processes research incorporates themes from Colluvium, Deposition, Sediment and Holocene.
His studies deal with areas such as Hydrology, Alluvium, Structural basin and Physical geography as well as Holocene.
His study on Pedogenesis is often connected to Calcium carbonate as part of broader study in Soil water.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geomorphology (30.95%)
- Quaternary (25.00%)
- Geochemistry (25.00%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2019)?
- Aeolian processes (25.00%)
- Desert (5.95%)
- Physical geography (14.29%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Leslie D. McFadden mainly investigates Aeolian processes, Desert, Physical geography, Arid and Erosion.
His Aeolian processes study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sediment, Quaternary, Ecosystem, Vegetation and Landform.
His work carried out in the field of Physical geography brings together such families of science as Pedogenesis, Pleistocene, Holocene and Aeolian landform.
His studies in Arid integrate themes in fields like Geochemistry and Earth science.
His study in Desert pavement is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Weathering and Soil horizon.
Deposition is a subfield of Geomorphology that Leslie D. McFadden explores.
Between 2013 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Numerical Modeling Chemical, and Isotopic Studies of Carbonate Accumulation in of Arid Regions (46 citations)
- Role of aeolian sediment accretion in the formation of heuweltjie earth mounds, western South Africa (19 citations)
- Impacts of climate change on the formation and stability of late Quaternary sand sheets and falling dunes, Black Mesa region, southern Colorado Plateau, USA (12 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Erosion
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biogeomorphology, Erosion, Quaternary, Aeolian processes and Arid.
The Biogeomorphology study combines topics in areas such as Landform, Woodland, Vegetation and Accretion.
His Erosion study results in a more complete grasp of Hydrology.
The various areas that Leslie D. McFadden examines in his Quaternary study include Fluvial, Deposition, Sediment, Geomorphology and Physical geography.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Sediment transport, Sand dune stabilization and Last Glacial Maximum in addition to Aeolian processes.
Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Geochemistry and Arid.
