Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecology

His main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Seawater, Oceanography, Mineralogy and Particulates. His work in the fields of Environmental chemistry, such as Anoxic waters, intersects with other areas such as Manganese. His Seawater research includes themes of Alkalinity, Anomaly, Carbon dioxide and Dissolution.

His Oceanography study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Atmosphere, Atmospheric sciences and Surface water. Peter G. Brewer undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Mineralogy and Clathrate hydrate through his research. As a part of the same scientific family, Peter G. Brewer mostly works in the field of Particulates, focusing on Deep sea and, on occasion, Adsorption, Equilibrium constant and Residence time.

His most cited work include:

  • Methane-consuming archaebacteria in marine sediments (977 citations)
  • Rare earth elements in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans (556 citations)
  • 210Pb/226Ra and 210Po/210Pb disequilibria in seawater and suspended particulate matter (371 citations)

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

Peter G. Brewer focuses on Oceanography, Seawater, Mineralogy, Deep sea and Environmental chemistry. His work carried out in the field of Oceanography brings together such families of science as Fossil fuel and Ecosystem. In his work, Carbon sequestration is strongly intertwined with Carbon dioxide, which is a subfield of Seawater.

Peter G. Brewer interconnects Seabed, Raman spectroscopy, Methane and Dissolution in the investigation of issues within Mineralogy. His research integrates issues of Global warming and Analytical chemistry in his study of Deep sea. His Environmental chemistry research includes elements of Nutrient, Hydrography, Particulates and Carbon nitrogen.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (36.48%)
  • Seawater (35.62%)
  • Mineralogy (22.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2019)?

  • Oceanography (36.48%)
  • Seawater (35.62%)
  • Deep sea (17.17%)

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

Peter G. Brewer mostly deals with Oceanography, Seawater, Deep sea, Basis and Effects of global warming on oceans. His Oceanography research incorporates themes from Ecosystem, Biogeochemical cycle and Biochemical engineering. His Seawater study incorporates themes from Environmental chemistry, Isosbestic point, Remotely operated vehicle and Salinity.

His Salinity research also works with subjects such as

  • Raman spectroscopy which connect with Mineralogy, Sea surface temperature and In situ,
  • Absolute zero together with Ocean chemistry. His Deep sea research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Pore water pressure and Ocean acidification. Peter G. Brewer has researched Effects of global warming on oceans in several fields, including Gas constant and Marine life.

Between 2013 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Free-ocean CO2 enrichment (FOCE) systems: present status and future developments (46 citations)
  • Use of a free ocean CO₂ enrichment (FOCE) system to evaluate the effects of ocean acidification on the foraging behavior of a deep-sea urchin. (35 citations)
  • In situ Raman measurement of HS- and H2S in sediment pore waters and use of the HS-:H2S ratio as an indicator of pore water pH (25 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Deep sea, Biogeochemical cycle, Ecosystem and Monitoring ph. His work deals with themes such as Sea urchin and Foraging, which intersect with Oceanography. His Deep sea research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gas constant, Pore water pressure and Ocean chemistry.

His Biogeochemical cycle research integrates issues from Hypoxia and Arrhenius equation, Activation energy. He combines subjects such as Stratification, Climate change, Ocean current and Oxygen solubility with his study of Ecosystem. Peter G. Brewer connects Monitoring ph with Biochemical engineering in his research.
