Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Richard J. Aldridge mostly deals with Conodont, Paleontology, Anatomy, Paleozoic and Carboniferous. His studies deal with areas such as Sinistral and dextral, Ordovician and Mineralogy as well as Conodont. The concepts of his Paleontology study are interwoven with issues in Paleoclimatology and China.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Trunk and Promissum in addition to Anatomy. His Paleozoic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biostratigraphy, Oceanography, Ireviken event and Lau event. His Oceanography study incorporates themes from Marine transgression and Paleoecology.

His most cited work include:

  • The Cambrian Fossils of Chengjiang, China: The Flowering of Early Animal Life (288 citations)
  • Conodont affinity and chordate phylogeny (247 citations)
  • The conodont animal (201 citations)

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

Richard J. Aldridge focuses on Paleontology, Conodont, Ordovician, Lagerstätte and Zoology. His research ties Genus and Paleontology together. His Conodont study also includes fields such as

  • Anatomy that connect with fields like Trunk,
  • Paleoecology most often made with reference to Taxonomy.

His Ordovician research integrates issues from Eurypterid, Illite and Mineralogy. While the research belongs to areas of Lagerstätte, Richard J. Aldridge spends his time largely on the problem of Crustacean, intersecting his research to questions surrounding China. His work on Morphology as part of general Zoology study is frequently linked to Sister group and Extant taxon, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (76.15%)
  • Conodont (33.03%)
  • Ordovician (21.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2019)?

  • Paleontology (76.15%)
  • Lagerstätte (22.02%)
  • Ordovician (21.10%)

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

His main research concerns Paleontology, Lagerstätte, Ordovician, Conodont and Evolutionary biology. Paleontology is closely attributed to Foraminifera in his study. His studies in Lagerstätte integrate themes in fields like Fauna, Anatomy, Genus and Crustacean.

His research in the fields of Appendage overlaps with other disciplines such as Sister group. He interconnects Nepheloid layer, Biostratigraphy and Oil shale in the investigation of issues within Ordovician. His Conodont research incorporates themes from Permian and Hindeodus.

Between 2007 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Revised conodont zonation and conodont evolution across the Permian–Triassic boundary at the Shangsi section, Guangyuan, Sichuan, South China (79 citations)
  • The interrelationships of 'complex' conodonts (Vertebrata) (53 citations)
  • Taphonomy and affinity of an enigmatic Silurian vertebrate, Jamoytius kerwoodi White (48 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Richard J. Aldridge mostly deals with Paleontology, Foraminifera, Conodont, Cladistics and Sister group. He has researched Paleontology in several fields, including Morphological similarity and Zooid. The various areas that Richard J. Aldridge examines in his Foraminifera study include Indus and Paleogene.

The Conodont study combines topics in areas such as Evolutionary biology, Section, Taxon, Hindeodus and Taxonomy. His Crustacean research incorporates elements of Ordovician and Lagerstätte. Richard J. Aldridge has included themes like Oil shale and Fauna in his Lagerstätte study.
