Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Groundwater
  • Hydrology

His primary areas of investigation include Aquifer, Groundwater, Hydrology, Environmental chemistry and Water quality. His Aquifer research incorporates themes from Pore water pressure and Irrigation. His Groundwater discharge and Depression-focused recharge study in the realm of Groundwater interacts with subjects such as Redox and Overexploitation.

His work in the fields of Hydrology, such as Water table and Wetland, overlaps with other areas such as Riparian buffer and Riparian forest. His work carried out in the field of Environmental chemistry brings together such families of science as Wastewater and Mineralogy. His Water quality research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil science, Septic tank and Effluent.

His most cited work include:

  • Groundwater depletion and sustainability of irrigation in the US High Plains and Central Valley (612 citations)
  • Redox Processes and Water Quality of Selected Principal Aquifer Systems (301 citations)
  • Deducing the Distribution of Terminal Electron‐Accepting Processes in Hydrologically Diverse Groundwater Systems (250 citations)

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

Peter B. McMahon mainly focuses on Hydrology, Groundwater, Aquifer, Environmental chemistry and Water quality. His work on Water table, Groundwater quality, Vadose zone and Drainage basin as part of general Hydrology study is frequently linked to Denitrification, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Groundwater research incorporates elements of Environmental engineering and Surface water.

His primary area of study in Aquifer is in the field of Groundwater recharge. The Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Methanogenesis and Mineralogy. Peter B. McMahon combines subjects such as High plains aquifer and Water supply with his study of Water quality.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (56.70%)
  • Groundwater (51.55%)
  • Aquifer (46.39%)

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

  • Groundwater (51.55%)
  • Aquifer (46.39%)
  • Hydrology (56.70%)

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

His primary areas of study are Groundwater, Aquifer, Hydrology, Groundwater quality and Geochemistry. Peter B. McMahon has included themes like Environmental chemistry, Dissolved organic carbon and Total organic carbon in his Groundwater study. Peter B. McMahon is involved in the study of Aquifer that focuses on Groundwater chemistry in particular.

In general Hydrology study, his work on Drainage basin and Public supply often relates to the realm of Selenium and Bedrock, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Groundwater quality study combines topics in areas such as Hydrogeology, Oil field and Water resource management. He focuses mostly in the field of Geochemistry, narrowing it down to matters related to Produced water and, in some cases, Group.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Brackish groundwater in the United States (28 citations)
  • Methane and Benzene in Drinking-Water Wells Overlying the Eagle Ford, Fayetteville, and Haynesville Shale Hydrocarbon Production Areas (25 citations)
  • Elevated Manganese Concentrations in United States Groundwater, Role of Land Surface-Soil-Aquifer Connections. (19 citations)

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

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Groundwater
  • Hydrology

His main research concerns Groundwater, Hydrology, Geochemistry, Aquifer and Environmental chemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Environmental engineering, Dissolved organic carbon, Total organic carbon and Oil shale as well as Groundwater. His Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Brackish water and Water resource management.

His Geochemistry research includes themes of Seawater, Injection well, Meteoric water and Produced water. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Groundwater recharge and Environmental chemistry.
