Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Sedimentary rock

His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Trace fossil, Ichnofacies, Ichnology and Sedimentary depositional environment. All of his Paleontology and Facies, Carboniferous, Skolithos, Helminthopsis and Planolites investigations are sub-components of the entire Paleontology study. His Trace fossil research includes elements of Paleozoic, Permian, Ordovician, Bioturbation and Paleoecology.

His Ichnofacies research incorporates themes from Sedimentary rock, Floodplain and Cretaceous. His Ichnology research integrates issues from Bioerosion, Sequence stratigraphy, Geomorphology and Substrate. His research in Sedimentary depositional environment intersects with topics in Sedimentology and Fluvial.

His most cited work include:

  • The Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (554 citations)
  • Ichnology: Organism-Substrate Interactions in Space and Time (413 citations)
  • Colonization of Brackish-Water Systems through Time: Evidence from the Trace-Fossil Record (204 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Trace fossil, Ichnology, Ichnofacies and Facies. Paleozoic, Sedimentary depositional environment, Bioturbation, Cruziana and Skolithos are the subjects of his Paleontology studies. The Trace fossil study combines topics in areas such as Ecology, Paleoecology, Cretaceous, Helminthopsis and Carboniferous.

His Ichnology course of study focuses on Structural basin and Burrow. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sedimentary rock and Thalassinoides. His Facies study combines topics in areas such as Turbidity current, Sedimentology and Fluvial.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (80.14%)
  • Trace fossil (50.52%)
  • Ichnology (28.22%)

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

  • Paleontology (80.14%)
  • Trace fossil (50.52%)
  • Ichnology (28.22%)

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

Luis A. Buatois mostly deals with Paleontology, Trace fossil, Ichnology, Sedimentary depositional environment and Structural basin. His study in Paleozoic, Skolithos, Bioturbation, Ordovician and Fluvial is done as part of Paleontology. His research investigates the connection with Paleozoic and areas like Trilobite which intersect with concerns in Tremadocian.

The various areas that Luis A. Buatois examines in his Trace fossil study include Earth science, Cambrian explosion, Sediment, Carboniferous and Permian–Triassic extinction event. His study in Ichnology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Lower shoreface, Treptichnus pedum and Dinosaur Park Formation. His Sedimentary depositional environment study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Geochemistry, Shoal and Facies.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ediacaran biozones identified with network analysis provide evidence for pulsed extinctions of early complex life (37 citations)
  • Early Cambrian origin of the shelf sediment mixed layer. (19 citations)
  • Sediment disturbance by Ediacaran bulldozers and the roots of the Cambrian explosion (19 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Sedimentary rock

His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Trace fossil, Ecosystem, Ichnology and Skolithos. Luis A. Buatois incorporates Paleontology and Multicellular organism in his research. His Trace fossil research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biozone, Cambrian explosion, Early Triassic, Permian–Triassic extinction event and Canyon.

His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sediment, Bioturbation and Phanerozoic. He has researched Ichnology in several fields, including Oil shale, Cretaceous, Lower shoreface, Turbidite and Channel. His research investigates the link between Skolithos and topics such as Cruziana that cross with problems in Progradation and Sequence stratigraphy.
