Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Basalt
  • Volcano

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Groundwater, Basalt, Mineralogy and Hydrology. The Radiogenic nuclide research Robert J. Poreda does as part of his general Geochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Arch, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Groundwater research incorporates themes from Structural basin and Methane.

Robert J. Poreda has included themes like Volcano, Mantle plume, Igneous rock and Mantle in his Basalt study. His Mineralogy research includes themes of Impact structure, Impact crater and Sedimentary rock, Impactite, Clastic rock. His Hydrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental chemistry, Arsenic, Phosphate and Weathering.

His most cited work include:

  • Increased stray gas abundance in a subset of drinking water wells near Marcellus shale gas extraction (424 citations)
  • Evidence for an extraterrestrial impact 12,900 years ago that contributed to the megafaunal extinctions and the Younger Dryas cooling (374 citations)
  • Stable compounds of helium and neon: he@c60 and ne@c60. (345 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Groundwater, Hydrology, Volcano and Mineralogy. As part of the same scientific family, Robert J. Poreda usually focuses on Geochemistry, concentrating on Hydrothermal circulation and intersecting with Impact crater. His Groundwater research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spring and Methane.

His Surface water and Drainage basin study, which is part of a larger body of work in Hydrology, is frequently linked to Tritium, bridging the gap between disciplines. The study incorporates disciplines such as Geothermal gradient, Isotope geochemistry and Earth science in addition to Volcano. His Mineralogy study incorporates themes from Bedout and Meteorite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (52.38%)
  • Groundwater (20.00%)
  • Hydrology (16.19%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2018)?

  • Geochemistry (52.38%)
  • Groundwater (20.00%)
  • Natural gas (5.71%)

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

Robert J. Poreda mostly deals with Geochemistry, Groundwater, Natural gas, Helium and Hydrology. Robert J. Poreda interconnects Structural basin, Source rock and Hydrocarbon in the investigation of issues within Geochemistry. His Groundwater research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Water pollution and Petroleum engineering.

The various areas that Robert J. Poreda examines in his Natural gas study include Hydraulic fracturing and Methane. His work in Methane covers topics such as Water well which are related to areas like Physiographic province, Propane and Mineralogy. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lava, Oceanography and Meltwater.

Between 2011 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Increased stray gas abundance in a subset of drinking water wells near Marcellus shale gas extraction (424 citations)
  • Noble gases identify the mechanisms of fugitive gas contamination in drinking-water wells overlying the Marcellus and Barnett Shales (283 citations)
  • The evolution of Devonian hydrocarbon gases in shallow aquifers of the northern Appalachian Basin: Insights from integrating noble gas and hydrocarbon geochemistry (68 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Volcano
  • Basalt

Methane, Geochemistry, Natural gas, Groundwater and Hydraulic fracturing are his primary areas of study. In his works, Robert J. Poreda undertakes multidisciplinary study on Geochemistry and Context. His Groundwater study focuses on Water well in particular.

The concepts of his Water well study are interwoven with issues in Propane, Mineralogy and Physiographic province. The Aquifer study combines topics in areas such as Hydrogeology, Contamination, Petroleum seep and Hydrocarbon. Robert J. Poreda has researched Environmental engineering in several fields, including Hydrology and Water pollution.
