What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Plate tectonics
Paleontology, Sequence stratigraphy, Sequence, Sedimentary depositional environment and Geologic record are his primary areas of study.
Foreland basin, Supercontinent, Structural basin, Unconformity and Marine transgression are among the areas of Paleontology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts.
Octavian Catuneanu performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Sequence stratigraphy and Nomenclature via his papers.
His Sequence research includes elements of Transgressive, Facies, Bounding overwatch and Stratigraphy.
His Sedimentary depositional environment study incorporates themes from Sedimentary basin and Subsidence.
His Geologic record study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Snowball Earth and Boring Billion.
His most cited work include:
- Principles of sequence stratigraphy (986 citations)
- Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy (883 citations)
- Reply to the comments of W. Helland-Hansen on "Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy" by Catuneanu et al. (Earth-Sciences Review 92(2009)1-33) (812 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Octavian Catuneanu spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Sequence stratigraphy, Sedimentary depositional environment, Facies and Sequence.
His study involves Structural basin, Foreland basin, Precambrian, Unconformity and Sedimentary rock, a branch of Paleontology.
Octavian Catuneanu usually deals with Sequence stratigraphy and limits it to topics linked to Transgressive and Diachronous.
His Sedimentary depositional environment study combines topics in areas such as Siltstone, Fluvial and Clastic rock.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sedimentology, Outcrop and Tectonics.
Octavian Catuneanu studied Sequence and Stratigraphy that intersect with Palaeogeography.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (73.08%)
- Sequence stratigraphy (44.23%)
- Sedimentary depositional environment (31.41%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Paleontology (73.08%)
- Sequence stratigraphy (44.23%)
- Sedimentary depositional environment (31.41%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Sequence stratigraphy, Sedimentary depositional environment, Sequence and Facies.
His study in Structural basin, Foreland basin, Unconformity, Sedimentary rock and Marine transgression is done as part of Paleontology.
Octavian Catuneanu works mostly in the field of Sequence stratigraphy, limiting it down to concerns involving Transgressive and, occasionally, Diagenesis.
His studies in Sedimentary depositional environment integrate themes in fields like Sedimentary basin, Tectonics, Geochemistry and Petrology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Geologic record, Sediment and Bounding overwatch in addition to Sequence.
His Facies study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Deposition, Outcrop, Stratigraphy and Clastic rock.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Model-independent sequence stratigraphy (71 citations)
- The South American retroarc foreland system: The development of the Bauru Basin in the back-bulge province (48 citations)
- Sequence Stratigraphy: Guidelines for a Standard Methodology (43 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Plate tectonics
Octavian Catuneanu focuses on Paleontology, Sequence stratigraphy, Sedimentary depositional environment, Sequence and Facies.
In Paleontology, Octavian Catuneanu works on issues like Shore, which are connected to Sediment.
His Sequence stratigraphy study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Outcrop.
His work deals with themes such as Sedimentary basin, Cenozoic, Petrology and Unconformity, which intersect with Sedimentary depositional environment.
Octavian Catuneanu combines subjects such as Sedimentary rock, Passive margin and Continental margin with his study of Sequence.
Octavian Catuneanu focuses mostly in the field of Facies, narrowing it down to topics relating to Clastic rock and, in certain cases, Siliciclastic and Diagenesis.
