Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Clathrate hydrate, Sediment, Geochemistry, Oceanography and Seafloor spreading. As part of his studies on Clathrate hydrate, Roger Sassen often connects relevant subjects like Methane. His Methane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Natural gas, Continental shelf, Hydrate, Mineralogy and Environmental chemistry.

His research in Continental shelf intersects with topics in Carbon, Methanogenesis and Hydrocarbon. His work blends Sediment and Fuel gas studies together. His study in Seafloor spreading is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Petroleum seep, Fossil fuel, Water column and Mud volcano.

His most cited work include:

  • Products and distinguishing criteria of bacterial and thermochemical sulfate reduction (551 citations)
  • Gas hydrate that breaches the sea floor on the continental slope of the Gulf of Mexico (264 citations)
  • Bacteria and Archaea Physically Associated with Gulf of Mexico Gas Hydrates (201 citations)

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

Clathrate hydrate, Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Methane and Continental shelf are his primary areas of study. Roger Sassen combines subjects such as Sediment, Fossil fuel and Oceanography with his study of Clathrate hydrate. His study in Seafloor spreading and Water column are all subfields of Oceanography.

His Seafloor spreading research focuses on Mud volcano and how it relates to Submarine pipeline. The study incorporates disciplines such as Natural gas, Petroleum seep, Source rock, Carbonate and Canyon in addition to Geochemistry. The various areas that Roger Sassen examines in his Mineralogy study include Environmental chemistry, Authigenic, Crystallization and Propane.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Clathrate hydrate (87.01%)
  • Geochemistry (85.71%)
  • Mineralogy (40.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2014)?

  • Geochemistry (85.71%)
  • Mineralogy (40.26%)
  • Clathrate hydrate (87.01%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Clathrate hydrate, Carbonate and Canyon. His Geochemistry study frequently links to related topics such as Geomorphology. Roger Sassen interconnects Mineral resource classification, Petroleum, Maturity and Oil field in the investigation of issues within Mineralogy.

His Clathrate hydrate study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Methane. His Methane research incorporates elements of Hydrate Ridge and Sediment, Mbsf. His Hydrate study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Continental shelf, Seafloor spreading, Greenhouse gas and Anticline.

Between 2004 and 2014, his most popular works were:

  • Gas hydrate systems at Hydrate Ridge offshore Oregon inferred from molecular and isotopic properties of hydrate-bound and void gases (91 citations)
  • Lipid biomarkers and carbon isotope signatures of a microbial (Beggiatoa) mat associated with gas hydrates in the gulf of Mexico. (86 citations)
  • Stability of Thermogenic Gas Hydrate in the Gulf of Mexico: Constraints on Models of Climate Change (48 citations)
