Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Sedimentary rock

Patrice Baby focuses on Paleontology, Foreland basin, Amazonian, Amazon rainforest and Structural basin. His studies in Paleontology integrate themes in fields like Zoology and Feathering. His work carried out in the field of Foreland basin brings together such families of science as Sedimentary rock and Roof.

In his study, Forebulge, Subduction and Seismology is inextricably linked to Neogene, which falls within the broad field of Amazonian. His research investigates the link between Amazon rainforest and topics such as Biodiversity that cross with problems in Arachnid, Biota, Tropical rainforest, Biogeography and Purussaurus. His Structural basin research is classified as research in Geomorphology.

His most cited work include:

  • Neogene shortening contribution to crustal thickening in the back arc of the Central Andes (155 citations)
  • Controls on weathering and provenance in the Amazonian foreland basin: Insights from major and trace element geochemistry of Neogene Amazonian sediments (130 citations)
  • Fossil evidence for evolution of the shape and color of penguin feathers. (128 citations)

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

His main research concerns Paleontology, Foreland basin, Geomorphology, Tectonics and Structural basin. Many of his studies on Paleontology apply to Amazonian as well. Patrice Baby has included themes like Subduction, Cretaceous, Rift, Provenance and Décollement in his Foreland basin study.

His work investigates the relationship between Geomorphology and topics such as Amazon rainforest that intersect with problems in Drainage basin, Biogeography and Fauna. His Structural basin study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Petrology and Deformation. In Neogene, Patrice Baby works on issues like Thrust fault, which are connected to Paleogene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (53.25%)
  • Foreland basin (31.82%)
  • Geomorphology (30.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Paleontology (53.25%)
  • Tectonics (25.97%)
  • Foreland basin (31.82%)

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

Patrice Baby mainly focuses on Paleontology, Tectonics, Foreland basin, Structural basin and Ecology. His Cenozoic, Quaternary, Tectonic uplift, Cretaceous and Fluvial study are his primary interests in Paleontology. Tectonics is closely attributed to Geomorphology in his work.

His study in Foreland basin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sedimentary rock, Evaporite, Nappe and Permian. His studies deal with areas such as Sediment, Erosion and Petrology as well as Structural basin. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Late Miocene under Ecology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Vicariance and Biogeography.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A Miocene hyperdiverse crocodylian community reveals peculiar trophic dynamics in proto-Amazonian mega-wetlands. (80 citations)
  • A 60-million-year Cenozoic history of western Amazonian ecosystems in Contamana, eastern Peru (75 citations)
  • Life in proto-Amazonia: Middle Miocene mammals from the Fitzcarrald Arch (Peruvian Amazonia) (49 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock

His primary areas of study are Paleontology, Ecology, Foreland basin, Amazon rainforest and Amazonian. His study in the field of Cenozoic, Range and Passive margin is also linked to topics like Monophyly and Xenungulata. His Ecology research focuses on subjects like Late Miocene, which are linked to Biogeography and Fauna.

To a larger extent, Patrice Baby studies Geomorphology with the aim of understanding Foreland basin. His Amazon rainforest research includes themes of Purussaurus, Hydrology, Tributary, Sedimentation and Streamflow. His Amazonian research incorporates elements of Alligatoroidea, Mourasuchus and Biodiversity hotspot, Biodiversity.
