Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Volcano

Her primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Melt inclusions, Tephra, Magma chamber and Igneous rock. Her work is connected to Volcanic rock, Lava and Magma, as a part of Geochemistry. Nelia W. Dunbar works mostly in the field of Melt inclusions, limiting it down to topics relating to Phenocryst and, in certain cases, Silicic.

Her work carried out in the field of Tephra brings together such families of science as Oceanography, Ice core and Antarctic ice sheet. Her Antarctic ice sheet research includes elements of Ice shelf and Ice stream. As part of one scientific family, Nelia W. Dunbar deals mainly with the area of Igneous rock, narrowing it down to issues related to the Earth science, and often Volcanic ash, Cenozoic and Phreatomagmatic eruption.

Her most cited work include:

  • Obliquity-paced Pliocene West Antarctic ice sheet oscillations (438 citations)
  • Precise interpolar phasing of abrupt climate change during the last ice age (179 citations)
  • Distinguishing subglacial till and glacial marine diamictons in the western Ross Sea, Antarctica: Implications for a last glacial maximum grounding line (114 citations)

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

Nelia W. Dunbar spends much of her time researching Geochemistry, Volcano, Paleontology, Tephra and Ice core. Geochemistry is represented through her Magma, Magma chamber, Melt inclusions, Phenocryst and Volcanic rock research. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Volcanism and Earth science.

Her studies in Tephra integrate themes in fields like Chronology and Volcanology. Her research in Ice core intersects with topics in Paleoclimatology, Antarctic ice sheet and Dome, Geomorphology, Ice sheet. Her Ice sheet research integrates issues from Cryosphere, Antarctic sea ice and Ice stream.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (43.33%)
  • Volcano (30.67%)
  • Paleontology (22.00%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2019)?

  • Ice core (20.67%)
  • Geochemistry (43.33%)
  • Tephra (21.33%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ice core, Geochemistry, Tephra, Paleontology and Volcano. Her Ice core research incorporates elements of Glacial period, Paleoclimatology and Antarctic ice sheet. Her Antarctic ice sheet study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ice stream and Holocene.

Her Geochemistry research incorporates elements of Tectonics, Drainage and Palaeogeography. In general Paleontology study, her work on Paleoceanography, Volcanism and Stratigraphy often relates to the realm of Paleosol and White, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Nelia W. Dunbar combines subjects such as Hydrothermal circulation and Earth science with her study of Volcano.

Between 2015 and 2019, her most popular works were:

  • The WAIS Divide deep ice core WD2014 chronology – Part 2: Annual-layer counting (0–31 ka BP) (77 citations)
  • Turmoil at Turrialba Volcano (Costa Rica): Degassing and eruptive processes inferred from high-frequency gas monitoring. (63 citations)
  • Synchronous volcanic eruptions and abrupt climate change ∼17.7 ka plausibly linked by stratospheric ozone depletion (34 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Volcano

Her primary areas of study are Ice core, Antarctic ice sheet, Glacial period, Tephra and Volcano. Within one scientific family, Nelia W. Dunbar focuses on topics pertaining to Paleoclimatology under Ice core, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Physical geography. Nelia W. Dunbar focuses mostly in the field of Glacial period, narrowing it down to matters related to Southern Hemisphere and, in some cases, Chronology.

The Tephra study combines topics in areas such as Sample preparation, Mineralogy and Mass spectrometry. Her Volcano research entails a greater understanding of Geochemistry. Her Ice stream study combines topics in areas such as Volcanism, Paleontology, Pleistocene and Ice sheet.
