Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Redox
  • Bacteria

Philippe Van Cappellen mainly focuses on Environmental chemistry, Dissolution, Organic matter, Mineralogy and Inorganic chemistry. His research in Environmental chemistry is mostly concerned with Biogeochemical cycle. His studies in Dissolution integrate themes in fields like Seawater, Biogenic silica, Redox and Ostwald ripening.

His Organic matter study incorporates themes from Total organic carbon, Water column and Anoxic waters. His study in Mineralogy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Thermal expansion and Country rock. His research integrates issues of Shewanella putrefaciens, Hematite and Qualitative inorganic analysis in his study of Inorganic chemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Biogeochemical Redox Processes and their Impact on Contaminant Dynamics (713 citations)
  • Nutrient inputs to the coastal ocean through submarine groundwater discharge: controls and potential impact (627 citations)
  • Surface catalysis of uranium(VI) reduction by iron(II) (490 citations)

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

Philippe Van Cappellen spends much of his time researching Environmental chemistry, Biogeochemical cycle, Mineralogy, Inorganic chemistry and Sediment. His Environmental chemistry research incorporates elements of Organic matter, Nitrate, Environmental remediation and Groundwater. His Biogeochemical cycle course of study focuses on Oceanography and Mediterranean sea.

His work in Mineralogy addresses issues such as Dissolution, which are connected to fields such as Biogenic silica and Redox. His studies deal with areas such as Lepidocrocite, Electron donor, Ferrihydrite, Shewanella putrefaciens and Hematite as well as Inorganic chemistry. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Sediment, Nutrient and Water column is strongly linked to Hydrology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (43.41%)
  • Biogeochemical cycle (18.54%)
  • Mineralogy (21.46%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Environmental chemistry (43.41%)
  • Hydrology (13.17%)
  • Biogeochemical cycle (18.54%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Environmental chemistry, Hydrology, Biogeochemical cycle, Water quality and Sorption. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Salinity, Soil water, Biodegradation, Environmental remediation and Nitrate. His Nitrate study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Denitrification, Nitrification and Bioretention.

His Hydrology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Coastal zone and Water column. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Climate change, Sediment, Eutrophication and Biogeochemistry. His Biogeochemical cycle research integrates issues from Calibration, Debris, Predictability and Hydrological modelling.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Nitrous oxide emissions from inland waters: Are IPCC estimates too high? (43 citations)
  • Bioretention cells under cold climate conditions: Effects of freezing and thawing on water infiltration, soil structure, and nutrient removal (18 citations)
  • Linking Spectral Induced Polarization (SIP) and Subsurface Microbial Processes: Results from Sand Column Incubation Experiments. (16 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Redox
  • Bacteria

Philippe Van Cappellen focuses on Hydrology, Denitrification, Environmental chemistry, Biogeochemical cycle and Nitrification. His Hydrology study combines topics in areas such as Coastal zone and Pollution. He has researched Environmental chemistry in several fields, including Salinity, Phosphate, Bioretention, Stormwater and Nitrate.

He combines subjects such as Bottom water and Effluent with his study of Nitrate. His work carried out in the field of Biogeochemical cycle brings together such families of science as Quartz, Shewanella oneidensis and Analytical chemistry. His Nitrification research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Watershed, Nitrous oxide, Climate change, Atmospheric sciences and Greenhouse gas.
