The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Radiocarbon dating, Archaeology, Mousterian, Neanderthal and Chronology.
Her Radiocarbon dating research focuses on Accelerator mass spectrometry in particular.
Her research on Mousterian often connects related topics like Paleontology.
Her Neanderthal study also includes fields such as
- Radiometric dating which intersects with area such as Upper Paleolithic,
- Hematite, Pyrite and Spondylus most often made with reference to Middle Paleolithic.
Her work in Chronology covers topics such as Aurignacian which are related to areas like Biological dispersal, German, Taphonomy and Mediterranean climate.
Her Châtelperronian research includes elements of Paleoanthropology, Pleistocene and Series.
Her most cited work include:
- The timing and spatiotemporal patterning of Neanderthal disappearance (446 citations)
- Symbolic use of marine shells and mineral pigments by Iberian Neandertals (410 citations)
- Evolutionary Robotics: A New Scientific Tool for Studying Cognition (223 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her primary scientific interests are in Archaeology, Radiocarbon dating, Paleontology, Chronology and Cave.
Her work in the fields of Neanderthal, Pleistocene, Holocene and Peninsula overlaps with other areas such as Southeast asia.
She combines subjects such as Archaeological record and Rock shelter with her study of Pleistocene.
Her study focuses on the intersection of Radiocarbon dating and fields such as Mousterian with connections in the field of Radiometric dating.
Her Chronology study often links to related topics such as Aurignacian.
Her Cave research incorporates themes from Marine isotope stage, Chronostratigraphy, Karst, Excavation and Foothills.
She most often published in these fields:
- Archaeology (57.55%)
- Radiocarbon dating (54.68%)
- Paleontology (34.53%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Her primary areas of study are Archaeology, Radiocarbon dating, Holocene, Cave and Megafauna.
Her studies in Archaeology integrate themes in fields like Period and Sequence.
Her Radiocarbon dating research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Physical geography and Chronology.
Her Cave research includes themes of Archaeological record and Foothills.
Her Megafauna study results in a more complete grasp of Paleontology.
Her Upper Paleolithic study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Middle Paleolithic, Neanderthal and Rock shelter.
Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- FosSahul 2.0, an updated database for the Late Quaternary fossil records of Sahul (12 citations)
- Challenges in sample processing within radiocarbon dating and their impact in 14C-dates-as-data studies (9 citations)
- Extinction of eastern Sahul megafauna coincides with sustained environmental deterioration (8 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Archaeology
- Paleontology
- Ecology
Rachel Wood spends much of her time researching Megafauna, Archaeology, Holocene, Cave and Pleistocene.
Her work deals with themes such as Environmental change and Quaternary, which intersect with Megafauna.
In the field of Archaeology, her study on Mousterian, Prehistory and Repatriation overlaps with subjects such as Christian ministry.
Her study in Cave is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Paleontology, Chronostratigraphy and Foothills.
Her research in Pleistocene intersects with topics in Ecology, Period, Human migration and Extinction.
Her Southeast asia research overlaps with other disciplines such as Archaeological research, China, Human habitation, Biological dispersal and Anatomically modern human.
