Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Oceanography

Philip A. Meyers mainly focuses on Organic matter, Total organic carbon, Oceanography, Sedimentary rock and Environmental chemistry. The concepts of his Organic matter study are interwoven with issues in Geochemistry, Diagenesis and Sediment, Terrigenous sediment. His Total organic carbon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Earth science, Paleoclimatology and Mediterranean climate, Mediterranean sea, Sapropel.

Philip A. Meyers interconnects Late Miocene and Carbonate in the investigation of issues within Oceanography. His Sedimentary rock study is associated with Paleontology. His Environmental chemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Seawater, Settling, Particulates and Biota.

His most cited work include:

  • Preservation of elemental and isotopic source identification of sedimentary organic matter (1801 citations)
  • Organic geochemical proxies of paleoceanographic, paleolimnologic, and paleoclimatic processes (1464 citations)
  • Lacustrine organic geochemistry—an overview of indicators of organic matter sources and diagenesis in lake sediments (1259 citations)

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

Philip A. Meyers mostly deals with Organic matter, Total organic carbon, Oceanography, Geochemistry and Paleontology. His Organic matter research incorporates elements of Sedimentary rock, Sediment, Quaternary, Diagenesis and Environmental chemistry. His Environmental chemistry course of study focuses on δ13C and Monsoon.

His studies in Total organic carbon integrate themes in fields like Productivity, Carbonate, Mineralogy, Anoxic waters and Mediterranean sea. His work is dedicated to discovering how Oceanography, Glacial period are connected with Holocene and other disciplines. His Geochemistry research includes elements of Table, Geomorphology, Carbon chemistry and Organic geochemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Organic matter (32.39%)
  • Total organic carbon (28.69%)
  • Oceanography (28.41%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Peat (10.51%)
  • Diagenesis (11.65%)
  • Holocene (11.65%)

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

Peat, Diagenesis, Holocene, Environmental chemistry and Oceanography are his primary areas of study. He works mostly in the field of Diagenesis, limiting it down to concerns involving Denitrification and, occasionally, Isotopes of nitrogen, Total organic carbon, Geochemistry, Isotopic composition and Oxygen. Philip A. Meyers has researched Holocene in several fields, including Climatology, Climate change, Paleoclimatology and Arctic.

His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Ecology, Carbon, Redox and Surface water. His research integrates issues of Glacial period, Sediment and Organic matter in his study of Oceanography. His work deals with themes such as Carbon cycle and Earth science, which intersect with Organic matter.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Concordant monsoon-driven postglacial hydrological changes in peat and stalagmite records and their impacts on prehistoric cultures in central China (106 citations)
  • Icehouse–greenhouse variations in marine denitrification (75 citations)
  • The Cenomanian/Turonian Boundary Event in the Indian Ocean: a Key to Understand the Global Picture (55 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen

His scientific interests lie mostly in Holocene, Peat, Oceanography, Climate change and Organic matter. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ecology, Arctic, Climatology and Paleoclimatology in addition to Holocene. Philip A. Meyers combines subjects such as Environmental chemistry and Deposition with his study of Peat.

His research in Oceanography intersects with topics in Paleontology and Photic zone. His Climate change research also works with subjects such as

  • Glacial period, which have a strong connection to Westerlies, Glacier, Northern Hemisphere and Total organic carbon,
  • Plateau and related Ice core, Glacial lake, Sequence and Geomorphology. Philip A. Meyers undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Organic matter and Decarboxylation in his work.
