Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Ecology
Paleontology
Oceanography

His primary areas of study are Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Ecology, Diagenesis and Dolomite. His research integrates issues of Sedimentary rock, Sample and Analytical chemistry in his study of Mineralogy. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sea level and Meteorite.

His work deals with themes such as Water mass and δ18O, which intersect with Ecology. In his study, Abundance and Fractionation is inextricably linked to δ13C, which falls within the broad field of δ18O. His Diagenesis study is focused on Paleontology in general.

His most cited work include:

Natal Homing in a Marine Fish Metapopulation (552 citations)
Fractionation of the stable isotopes of oxygen and carbon in carbon dioxide during the reaction of calcite with phosphoric acid as a function of temperature and technique (274 citations)
Factors determining δ13C and δ18O fractionation in aragonitic otoliths of marine fish (270 citations)

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

Peter K. Swart mainly focuses on Oceanography, Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Diagenesis and Paleontology. His study in Oceanography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ecology and Precipitation. His Geochemistry study frequently links to related topics such as Dolomitization.

His study looks at the relationship between Mineralogy and topics such as Isotopes of carbon, which overlap with Chondrite. The concepts of his Diagenesis study are interwoven with issues in δ18O, Carbonate rock and Carbonate platform. He combines subjects such as Reef, Seawater and Environmental chemistry with his study of Coral.

He most often published in these fields:

Oceanography (26.02%)
Geochemistry (19.28%)
Mineralogy (19.28%)

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

Geochemistry (19.28%)
Diagenesis (13.98%)
Oceanography (26.02%)

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

Peter K. Swart mainly investigates Geochemistry, Diagenesis, Oceanography, Environmental chemistry and Seawater. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including δ18O, Carbonate platform and Dolomitization. His research in Diagenesis intersects with topics in Carbonate rock and Neomorphism.

Oceanography is frequently linked to Ecology in his study. His Environmental chemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Coral and Isotopes of carbon. His Dolomite research is classified as research in Mineralogy.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Mineralogy, early marine diagenesis, and the chemistry of shallow-water carbonate sediments (111 citations)
Quantifying early marine diagenesis in shallow-water carbonate sediments (77 citations)
Refinement of Miocene sea level and monsoon events from the sedimentary archive of the Maldives (Indian Ocean) (42 citations)
