Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Hydrogen

Peter Fritz focuses on Environmental chemistry, Geochemistry, Hydrology, Groundwater and Isotopes of oxygen. He studies Environmental chemistry, focusing on Dissolved organic carbon in particular. His studies in Geochemistry integrate themes in fields like Total dissolved solids, Shield and Isotope geochemistry.

A large part of his Hydrology studies is devoted to Meteoric water. Peter Fritz interconnects Infiltration, Field capacity and Soil horizon in the investigation of issues within Groundwater. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Isotope hydrology, Isotope-ratio mass spectrometry and Isotope fractionation.

His most cited work include:

  • Environmental Isotopes in Hydrogeology (3130 citations)
  • The Terrestrial environment (372 citations)
  • Carbon isotope fractionation during microbial methane oxidation (306 citations)

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

Peter Fritz mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Groundwater, Hydrology, Mineralogy and Environmental chemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Radioactive waste, Isotope geochemistry, Shield and Hydrothermal circulation in addition to Geochemistry. The Groundwater study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary rock and Dissolved organic carbon.

His Hydrology research incorporates themes from Humidity and Atmospheric sciences. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Isotope fractionation, Saline water and Chemical composition. In most of his Isotope hydrology studies, his work intersects topics such as Meteoric water.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (39.74%)
  • Groundwater (34.62%)
  • Hydrology (26.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1990-2013)?

  • Hydrology (26.92%)
  • Groundwater (34.62%)
  • Geochemistry (39.74%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Hydrology, Groundwater, Geochemistry, Groundwater recharge and Aquifer. His Hydrology research includes themes of Environmental chemistry and Deposition. His Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Environmental isotopes, Isotope fractionation and Activation energy.

His Groundwater research focuses on Meteoric water in particular. The various areas that Peter Fritz examines in his Meteoric water study include Natural, Isotope hydrology, Radioactive waste, Isotopic signature and Isotope-ratio mass spectrometry. His Geochemistry research incorporates elements of Marl, Mineralogy and Shield.

Between 1990 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • Environmental Isotopes in Hydrogeology (3130 citations)
  • Abiogenic methanogenesis in crystalline rocks (195 citations)
  • Stable isotope disequilibria in travertine from high pH waters: Laboratory investigations and field observations from Oman (91 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Hydrogen

Geochemistry, Igneous rock, Metamorphic rock, Environmental chemistry and Sedimentary rock are his primary areas of study. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Marl and Aquifer. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both δ18O and Activation energy, Analytical chemistry.

His work in Sedimentary rock covers topics such as Natural which are related to areas like Meteoric water and Groundwater. His Meteoric water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Isotope hydrology, Environmental isotopes, Isotope-ratio mass spectrometry and Isotope fractionation. His work deals with themes such as Hydrology and Groundwater recharge, which intersect with Isotope fractionation.
