What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Oceanography
- Sediment
His main research concerns Oceanography, Sediment, Flood myth, Sedimentation and Continental shelf.
Robert A. Wheatcroft performs integrative study on Oceanography and Coring.
His research on Sediment focuses in particular on Bioturbation.
His Flood myth research is within the category of Hydrology.
His study in Hydrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Waves and shallow water and River mouth.
His Continental shelf research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Discharge and Sedimentary budget.
His most cited work include:
- Vent fauna on whale remains (263 citations)
- Deep-Sea Deposit-Feeding Strategies Suggested by Environmental and Feeding Constraints (203 citations)
- A mechanistic view of the particulate biodiffusion coefficient: Step lengths, rest periods and transport directions (189 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Robert A. Wheatcroft mostly deals with Sediment, Oceanography, Hydrology, Continental shelf and Sediment transport.
His work on Sedimentation as part of general Sediment study is frequently linked to Continental margin, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His Oceanography study incorporates themes from Structural basin, Discharge and Bioturbation.
In general Hydrology study, his work on Flood myth and Watershed often relates to the realm of Flux, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
In his work, Erosion is strongly intertwined with Deposition, which is a subfield of Continental shelf.
His Sediment transport study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Downwelling and Upwelling.
He most often published in these fields:
- Sediment (50.65%)
- Oceanography (37.66%)
- Hydrology (27.27%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?
- Sediment (50.65%)
- Hydrology (27.27%)
- Total organic carbon (11.69%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Sediment, Hydrology, Total organic carbon, Oceanography and Sedimentary rock.
His Sediment research integrates issues from Structural basin, Fluvial, Silt, Seabed and Erosion.
His research integrates issues of Sedimentation, Bay and Logging in his study of Hydrology.
Robert A. Wheatcroft studied Total organic carbon and Particulates that intersect with Environmental chemistry, Primary production, Soil water and Ecosystem.
Particularly relevant to Continental shelf is his body of work in Oceanography.
His research in Sedimentary rock intersects with topics in Organic matter and Mineralogy.
Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Particulate organic matter export by two contrasting small mountainous rivers from the Pacific Northwest, U.S.A. (71 citations)
- Chemical characteristics of particulate organic matter from a small, mountainous river system in the Oregon Coast Range, USA (61 citations)
- Trends in the suspended-sediment yields of coastal rivers of northern California, 1955–2010 (48 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Ecology
- Sediment
- Oceanography
His primary areas of study are Sediment, Hydrology, Erosion, Watershed and Total organic carbon.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil science, Bay and Seabed.
Specifically, his work in Hydrology is concerned with the study of Discharge.
His studies in Discharge integrate themes in fields like Flood myth, Smith River, Water year and Logging.
His Erosion research includes themes of Structural basin, Sediment transport and Discharge data.
He interconnects Soil carbon, Oceanography, Provenance and Vegetation in the investigation of issues within Total organic carbon.
