Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Ecology
  • Archaea

Mark A. Lever mainly focuses on Ecology, Sediment, Archaea, Anoxic waters and Methane. His study connects Genetic traits and Ecology. His research in Sediment intersects with topics in Methanogenesis and Ecosystem.

His studies in Archaea integrate themes in fields like Microbial ecology, Biogeochemical cycle and Marine biology. His research integrates issues of Microorganism, Acetogenesis, Carbon cycle and Metabolic pathway in his study of Anoxic waters. Mark A. Lever usually deals with Methane and limits it to topics linked to Oceanography and Terrigenous sediment.

His most cited work include:

  • Heterotrophic Archaea dominate sedimentary subsurface ecosystems off Peru (568 citations)
  • Biogeographical distribution and diversity of microbes in methane hydrate-bearing deep marine sediments on the Pacific Ocean Margin (524 citations)
  • Predominant archaea in marine sediments degrade detrital proteins (378 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Sediment, Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Geochemistry and Microbial population biology. His Sediment research incorporates elements of Oceanography and Biogeochemical cycle. His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Microorganism, Bay, Archaea and Phylogenetic tree.

In the subject of general Environmental chemistry, his work in Anoxic waters is often linked to Dimethylsulfoniopropionate, thereby combining diverse domains of study. The Geochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Seafloor spreading, Hydrothermal circulation and Methane. His studies examine the connections between Microbial population biology and genetics, as well as such issues in Organic matter, with regards to Total organic carbon and Community structure.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Sediment (37.37%)
  • Ecology (42.42%)
  • Environmental chemistry (23.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Sediment (37.37%)
  • Mineralogy (7.07%)
  • Oxygen (6.06%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Sediment, Mineralogy, Oxygen, Core and Ecology. As part of his studies on Sediment, Mark A. Lever often connects relevant subjects like Geochemistry. Mark A. Lever has included themes like Fractionation and Pedogenesis in his Mineralogy study.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Piora, Sequence and Microbial population biology in addition to Ecology. His Microbial population biology research integrates issues from Organic matter and Intertidal zone. His research investigates the connection between Total organic carbon and topics such as Community structure that intersect with issues in Bioturbation, Carbon cycle, Oceanography and Seafloor spreading.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Environmental Fate of RNA Interference Pesticides: Adsorption and Degradation of Double-Stranded RNA Molecules in Agricultural Soils. (24 citations)
  • Marine Transform Faults and Fracture Zones: A Joint Perspective Integrating Seismicity, Fluid Flow and Life (12 citations)
  • Experimental calibration of clumped isotopes in siderite between 8.5 and 62 °C and its application as paleo-thermometer in paleosols (8 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Ecology
  • Archaea

Total organic carbon, Organic matter, Microbial population biology, Seafloor spreading and Community structure are his primary areas of study. His work deals with themes such as Trophic level and Eutrophication, which intersect with Total organic carbon. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental chemistry, Methanogenesis and Ecosystem, Carbon sink as well as Eutrophication.

His Organic matter study introduces a deeper knowledge of Ecology. His Microbial population biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sediment and Trophic state index. His Seafloor spreading research includes elements of Seismology, Induced seismicity, Downwelling and Mantle.
