Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Sediment

His primary areas of investigation include Geomorphology, Sedimentary depositional environment, Levee, Oceanography and Abyssal zone. His work on Sedimentation as part of general Geomorphology study is frequently connected to Flow velocity, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Sedimentary depositional environment, Sedimentary rock is strongly linked to Debris.

His studies deal with areas such as Communication channel and Meander as well as Levee. The concepts of his Oceanography study are interwoven with issues in Sediment and Tectonics. Roger D. Flood has included themes like Mixed layer, Ridge, Pleistocene and Holocene in his Abyssal zone study.

His most cited work include:

  • Anatomy and Growth Pattern of Amazon Deep-Sea Fan as Revealed by Long-Range Side-Scan Sonar (GLORIA) and High-Resolution Seismic Studies (203 citations)
  • A lee wave model for deep-sea mudwave activity (143 citations)
  • Classification of sedimentary furrows and a model for furrow initiation and evolution (128 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Geomorphology, Mineralogy, Sediment and Table. His research in Oceanography intersects with topics in Mediterranean climate and Sedimentation. His work carried out in the field of Geomorphology brings together such families of science as Deep sea and Levee.

His Levee course of study focuses on Sea level and Debris flow. His research integrates issues of Sedimentary rock, Diagenesis, Seabed, Abyssal zone and Erosion in his study of Sediment. His research investigates the connection between Meander and topics such as Side-scan sonar that intersect with problems in Communication channel.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (30.43%)
  • Geomorphology (27.54%)
  • Mineralogy (23.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2019)?

  • Oceanography (30.43%)
  • Outflow (5.80%)
  • Mediterranean climate (5.80%)

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

Oceanography, Outflow, Mediterranean climate, Geomorphology and Contourite are his primary areas of study. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Tectonics under Oceanography, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Thermohaline circulation, Sedimentary depositional environment, Shore, Quaternary and Sediment transport. The various areas that Roger D. Flood examines in his Outflow study include Sedimentation and Climatology, Gulf Stream.

The Geomorphology study combines topics in areas such as Storm and Bathymetry. His study looks at the intersection of Seabed and topics like Sediment with Hydrology, Categorical variable and Aquatic ecosystem. His study on Bedform also encompasses disciplines like

  • Backscatter which intersects with area such as Paleontology,
  • Outcrop, which have a strong connection to Sedimentary rock.

Between 2009 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Onset of Mediterranean outflow into the North Atlantic (102 citations)
  • A reference time scale for Site U1385 (Shackleton Site) on the SW Iberian Margin (60 citations)
  • Gravity-driven flow in a submarine channel bend: Direct field evidence of helical flow reversal (54 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Sediment

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Bedform, Bathymetry, Geomorphology and Paleontology. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Oceanography, Plate tectonics, Sedimentary depositional environment and Tectonics is strongly linked to Mediterranean climate. His Bedform research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Storm, Sedimentary rock, Sea level, Barrier island and Erosion.

His Bathymetry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ridge, Crevasse and Turbidity current. Many of his studies on Geomorphology apply to Seabed as well. His Paleontology research incorporates elements of Foraminifera and Backscatter.
