Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Groundwater
  • Redox

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mineralogy, Groundwater, Inorganic chemistry, Solubility and Boiling. His study in Dissolution extends to Groundwater with its themes. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Dissolution, Water table and Controlled release is strongly linked to Environmental chemistry.

His study in the field of Antimony is also linked to topics like Stibnite and Yield. His Boiling research incorporates themes from Equilibrium constant, Mass balance, Fluid inclusions and Dilution. His studies deal with areas such as Geochemical modeling, Water well, Trace element and Siderite as well as Aquifer.

His most cited work include:

  • CO2-H2O mixtures in the geological sequestration of CO2. I. Assessment and calculation of mutual solubilities from 12 to 100°C and up to 600 bar (642 citations)
  • TOUGHREACT-A simulation program for non-isothermal multiphase reactive geochemical transport in variably saturated geologic media: Applications to geothermal injectivity and CO2 geological sequestration (613 citations)
  • CO2-H2O mixtures in the geological sequestration of CO2. II. Partitioning in chloride brines at 12–100°C and up to 600 bar (357 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Mineralogy, Dissolution, Geothermal gradient, Groundwater and Environmental chemistry. The concepts of his Mineralogy study are interwoven with issues in Geothermal fluid, Boiling, Dilution and Matrix. His Dissolution research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Porosity, Pore water pressure, Diagenesis and Calcite.

His Geothermal gradient study combines topics in areas such as Geochemistry, Earth science, Permeability and Petroleum engineering. In the field of Groundwater, his study on Aquifer and Geochemical modeling overlaps with subjects such as Brining. His Biogeochemical cycle study in the realm of Environmental chemistry connects with subjects such as Desorption.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mineralogy (28.33%)
  • Dissolution (23.33%)
  • Geothermal gradient (22.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Groundwater (19.17%)
  • Geothermal gradient (22.50%)
  • Hydrology (14.17%)

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

Nicolas Spycher focuses on Groundwater, Geothermal gradient, Hydrology, Biogeochemical cycle and Aquifer. His work on Geochemical modeling as part of general Groundwater study is frequently connected to Brining, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His Geothermal gradient research includes themes of Resource, Power station, Earth science and Data science.

His study on Aquifer also encompasses disciplines like

  • Plume which connect with Mineralogy,
  • Soil science that intertwine with fields like Substrate. His Mineralogy research incorporates elements of Savannah River Site and Geologic Sediments. His Buoyancy study which covers Calcite that intersects with Dissolution.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Water Table Dynamics and Biogeochemical Cycling in a Shallow, Variably-Saturated Floodplain. (47 citations)
  • Mineral properties, microbes, transport, and plant-input profiles control vertical distribution and age of soil carbon stocks (37 citations)
  • Geochemical Exports to River From the Intrameander Hyporheic Zone Under Transient Hydrologic Conditions: East River Mountainous Watershed, Colorado (26 citations)

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

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Groundwater
  • Redox

His primary areas of study are Groundwater, Environmental engineering, Geothermal gradient, Nitrate and Hydrology. In general Groundwater, his work in Aquifer is often linked to Radionuclide linking many areas of study. His research integrates issues of Carbon sequestration, Contamination and Degradation in his study of Environmental engineering.

His Geothermal gradient research includes elements of Resource, Power station and Data science. His Nitrate study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Hyporheic zone, Total inorganic carbon and Biogeochemical cycle. His Hydrology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Organic matter and Anoxic waters.
