What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Sediment
Robert W. Dalrymple mostly deals with Paleontology, Facies, Estuary, Fluvial and Oceanography.
His study in Facies focuses on Incised valley in particular.
His Estuary research integrates issues from Deposition, Submarine pipeline, Tectonics and Geomorphology.
His research in the fields of Structural basin, Inlet, Bed load and Channel overlaps with other disciplines such as Context.
The Fluvial study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary depositional environment and Sedimentary rock.
Robert W. Dalrymple has included themes like Hummocky cross-stratification and Bioturbation in his Oceanography study.
His most cited work include:
- Estuarine facies models; conceptual basis and stratigraphic implications (1169 citations)
- Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy (883 citations)
- Reply to the comments of W. Helland-Hansen on "Towards the standardization of sequence stratigraphy" by Catuneanu et al. (Earth-Sciences Review 92(2009)1-33) (812 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Robert W. Dalrymple focuses on Paleontology, Facies, Geomorphology, Oceanography and Fluvial.
His research ties Sea level and Paleontology together.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Facies, Paleocurrent is strongly linked to Outcrop.
His study explores the link between Geomorphology and topics such as Current that cross with problems in Sediment transport.
His research in Oceanography intersects with topics in Sedimentation, Beach morphodynamics and Bioturbation.
His Fluvial study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Channel, Bed load, Marine transgression and Progradation.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (54.55%)
- Facies (27.27%)
- Geomorphology (23.14%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Paleontology (54.55%)
- Facies (27.27%)
- Oceanography (22.31%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Robert W. Dalrymple spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Facies, Oceanography, Geomorphology and Structural basin.
His is doing research in Aspidella, Holocene, Sequence stratigraphy, Sedimentary structures and Upper shoreface, both of which are found in Paleontology.
His studies in Facies integrate themes in fields like Coastal plain, Outcrop, Quaternary and Silt.
His Oceanography research includes themes of Point bar and Seasonality.
When carried out as part of a general Geomorphology research project, his work on Sedimentation is frequently linked to work in High concentration, Deposition and High energy, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
In his study, Fluvial, Marine transgression and Beach morphodynamics is strongly linked to Tectonics, which falls under the umbrella field of Structural basin.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Recognition of strong seasonality and climatic cyclicity in an ancient, fluvially dominated, tidally influenced point bar: Middle McMurray Formation, Lower Steepbank River, north-eastern Alberta, Canada (58 citations)
- Decoupling seasonal fluctuations in fluvial discharge from the tidal signature in ancient deltaic deposits: an example from the Neuquén Basin, Argentina (33 citations)
- Facies and stratigraphic architecture of the late Pleistocene to early Holocene tide-dominated paleo-Changjiang (Yangtze River) delta (24 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Sediment
- Paleontology
Robert W. Dalrymple focuses on Facies, Paleontology, Oceanography, Structural basin and Outcrop.
Facies is frequently linked to Fluvial in his study.
His study in Fluvial is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Floodplain, Marine transgression and Thalweg.
Robert W. Dalrymple brings together Paleontology and Yangtze river to produce work in his papers.
Robert W. Dalrymple has researched Oceanography in several fields, including Point bar, Graben and Seasonality.
His studies deal with areas such as Bay, Beach morphodynamics and Tectonics as well as Structural basin.
