Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • World War II
  • Oceanography
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Sediment, Glacial period, Water column and Total organic carbon. He has included themes like Particulates and Biological pump in his Oceanography study. His Sediment research includes elements of Sedimentary rock, Benthic zone and Diagenesis.

His Glacial period research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Westerlies, Sea ice and Carbon dioxide. His research integrates issues of Biogeochemical cycle and Anoxic waters in his study of Water column. His Total organic carbon study also includes fields such as

  • Authigenic together with Bottom water,
  • Geochemistry, which have a strong connection to Geomorphology.

His most cited work include:

  • Wind-Driven Upwelling in the Southern Ocean and the Deglacial Rise in Atmospheric CO2 (761 citations)
  • Wind-Driven Upwelling in the Southern Ocean and the Deglacial Rise in Atmospheric CO2 (761 citations)
  • Distribution of thorium isotopes between dissolved and particulate forms in the deep sea (583 citations)

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

Oceanography, Glacial period, Sediment, Deep sea and Geochemistry are his primary areas of study. His Oceanography study combines topics in areas such as Biogeochemical cycle and Interglacial. The Glacial period study combines topics in areas such as Paleoclimatology, Pleistocene and Paleoceanography.

The concepts of his Sediment study are interwoven with issues in Sedimentary rock, Particulates, Total organic carbon and Mineralogy. His work in Geochemistry tackles topics such as Sediment core which are related to areas like Table and Isotope. The study incorporates disciplines such as Environmental chemistry and Seawater in addition to Water column.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (58.66%)
  • Glacial period (26.07%)
  • Sediment (17.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Oceanography (58.66%)
  • Geotraces (14.87%)
  • Glacial period (26.07%)

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

Robert F. Anderson mostly deals with Oceanography, Geotraces, Glacial period, Deep sea and Environmental chemistry. His Oceanography study incorporates themes from Carbon sequestration, Ice age and Pleistocene. The various areas that Robert F. Anderson examines in his Ice age study include Bottom water and Abyssal zone.

His studies in Glacial period integrate themes in fields like Climatology, Radiocarbon dating, Paleoclimatology and Subarctic climate. His work deals with themes such as Sedimentary rock, Authigenic, Thermohaline circulation and Biological pump, which intersect with Deep sea. His research investigates the connection between Thorium and topics such as Geochemistry that intersect with problems in Sediment.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The GEOTRACES Intermediate Data Product 2017 (138 citations)
  • Intense hydrothermal scavenging of 230Th and 231Pa in the deep Southeast Pacific (31 citations)
  • Intense hydrothermal scavenging of 230Th and 231Pa in the deep Southeast Pacific (31 citations)

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

  • World War II
  • Oceanography
  • Ecology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Geotraces, Glacial period, Deep sea and Flux. His Oceanography study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Pleistocene. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Environmental chemistry under Geotraces, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Seawater, Mineralogy, Hydrothermal circulation and Radiogenic nuclide.

Robert F. Anderson combines subjects such as Carbon sequestration and Climate change, Paleoclimatology with his study of Glacial period. His Deglaciation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climatology and Upwelling. His research integrates issues of Bottom water, Ice age, Stratification and Abyssal zone in his study of Water column.
