Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Soil water

Rob Fitzpatrick focuses on Soil water, Weathering, Hydrology, Goethite and Sulfate. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental chemistry and Groundwater. His studies deal with areas such as Ilmenite and Pedogenesis as well as Weathering.

His Hydrology research incorporates themes from Soil classification and Topsoil. His Goethite study combines topics in areas such as Inorganic chemistry, Ammonium oxalate, Ferrihydrite, Crystallinity and Hematite. The Sulfate study combines topics in areas such as Floodplain, Soil pH, River water, Pyrite and Environmental monitoring.

His most cited work include:

  • New Data and a Revised Structural Model for Ferrihydrite (266 citations)
  • Al-substituted goethite—An indicator of pedogenic and other weathering environments in South Africa (219 citations)
  • The influence of aluminum on iron oxides; Part II, Preparation and properties of Al-substituted hematites (215 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Soil water, Sulfate, Hydrology, Acid sulfate soil and Environmental chemistry. He has included themes like Organic matter and Groundwater in his Soil water study. In his study, Waterlogging is strongly linked to Dryland salinity, which falls under the umbrella field of Groundwater.

In Sulfate, Rob Fitzpatrick works on issues like Inorganic chemistry, which are connected to Goethite. Rob Fitzpatrick has researched Hydrology in several fields, including Salinity and Soil salinity. Within one scientific family, Rob Fitzpatrick focuses on topics pertaining to Schwertmannite under Environmental chemistry, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Surface water.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Soil water (62.55%)
  • Sulfate (35.39%)
  • Hydrology (32.92%)

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

  • Soil water (62.55%)
  • Sulfate (35.39%)
  • Environmental chemistry (23.05%)

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

His main research concerns Soil water, Sulfate, Environmental chemistry, Acid sulfate soil and Jarosite. His Soil water study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Organic matter and Biogeochemical cycle. His Organic matter study combines topics in areas such as Straw and Pyrite.

His work deals with themes such as Metal and Sulfuric acid, which intersect with Sulfate. Ferrihydrite, Ferric, Phosphoric acid, Strengite and Nuclear chemistry is closely connected to Goethite in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Jarosite. His studies deal with areas such as Dryland salinity, Revegetation, Wetland and Groundwater as well as Soil horizon.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Titanium and Zirconium Minerals (148 citations)
  • Alteration of organic matter during remediation of acid sulfate soils (9 citations)
  • Consumption and alteration of different organic matter sources during remediation of a sandy sulfuric soil (6 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Ecosystem

His primary areas of study are Soil water, Sulfate, Environmental chemistry, Acid sulfate soil and Kinetics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Organic matter and Metal. His Organic matter research incorporates elements of Sulfuric acid, Pyrite, Straw, Animal science and Wetland soils.

His work on Biogeochemical cycle as part of general Environmental chemistry research is often related to Glass electrode, Bromocresol green and Ph changes, thus linking different fields of science. Among his Kinetics studies, there is a synthesis of other scientific areas such as Jarosite, Dissolution and Composition. Throughout his Environmental remediation studies, Rob Fitzpatrick incorporates elements of other sciences such as Manure and Incubation.
