What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Oceanography
- Paleontology
- Climate change
His main research concerns Oceanography, Paleontology, Sapropel, Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 and Astrochronology.
As part of his studies on Oceanography, he frequently links adjacent subjects like Isotopes of oxygen.
Many of his research projects under Paleontology are closely connected to Scale with Scale, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
He has included themes like δ18O and Northern Hemisphere in his Sapropel study.
His Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Environmental chemistry, Paleoclimatology and Methane.
The concepts of his Astrochronology study are interwoven with issues in Volcano, Late Miocene and Group.
His most cited work include:
- The Neogene Period (1109 citations)
- Rapid acidification of the ocean during the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum. (776 citations)
- A new Geologic Time Scale, with special reference to Precambrian and Neogene (756 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Lucas Joost Lourens mostly deals with Paleontology, Oceanography, Climatology, Glacial period and Pleistocene.
His research in Paleontology intersects with topics in Stable isotope ratio, Isotopes of oxygen and Isotopes of carbon.
His Oceanography study incorporates themes from Mediterranean climate and δ18O.
His Climatology research incorporates themes from Climate model and Ice sheet.
His Glacial period study combines topics in areas such as Sea surface temperature and Sapropel.
The various areas that he examines in his Pleistocene study include Neogene and Ice core.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (35.45%)
- Oceanography (30.77%)
- Climatology (15.38%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Oceanography (30.77%)
- Paleontology (35.45%)
- Benthic zone (10.70%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Paleontology, Benthic zone, Climatology and Foraminifera.
His work deals with themes such as Glacial period, δ18O, Early Pleistocene and Mediterranean climate, Mediterranean sea, which intersect with Oceanography.
His Glacial period research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Holocene, Sea surface temperature, Monsoon and Ice sheet.
His research integrates issues of Isotopes of oxygen and Isotopes of carbon in his study of Paleontology.
His Benthic zone research includes themes of Environmental chemistry, Isotopic composition and Isotope.
His Climatology research integrates issues from Global temperature and Climate sensitivity.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- The DeepMIP contribution to PMIP4: methodologies for selection, compilation and analysis of latest Paleocene and early Eocene climate proxy data, incorporating version 0.1 of the DeepMIP database (58 citations)
- An astronomically dated record of Earth's climate and its predictability over the last 66 million years. (52 citations)
- Evolution of the early Antarctic ice ages. (46 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Oceanography
- Paleontology
- Climate change
Lucas Joost Lourens focuses on Oceanography, Paleontology, Glacial period, Isotopes of carbon and Monsoon.
As a part of the same scientific study, Lucas Joost Lourens usually deals with the Oceanography, concentrating on Early Pleistocene and frequently concerns with Outflow.
His is involved in several facets of Paleontology study, as is seen by his studies on Structural basin, Cyclostratigraphy and Geologic time scale.
His work on Astrochronology as part of general Cyclostratigraphy study is frequently connected to Boundary and Eccentricity, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
He has researched Glacial period in several fields, including Lead, Sea surface temperature, Sea level, Continental margin and Mediterranean climate.
Lucas Joost Lourens works mostly in the field of Climate change, limiting it down to topics relating to Subtropics and, in certain cases, Forcing and Eocene Thermal Maximum 2.
