What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Sediment
Ronald J. Steel mainly focuses on Paleontology, Geomorphology, Fluvial, Sea level and Facies.
Sedimentary depositional environment, Sequence stratigraphy, Alluvium, Sedimentary basin and Cretaceous are subfields of Paleontology in which his conducts study.
His studies examine the connections between Sequence stratigraphy and genetics, as well as such issues in Stratigraphy, with regards to Stratigraphic section.
His study brings together the fields of Geochemistry and Geomorphology.
His Sea level research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sediment and Marine transgression.
In his study, Devonian and Rhythmite is inextricably linked to Sedimentary rock, which falls within the broad field of Facies.
His most cited work include:
- 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)
- Alluvial and Coastal Conglomerates: Their Significant Features and Some Comments on Gravelly Mass-Flow Deposits (504 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Ronald J. Steel mostly deals with Paleontology, Geomorphology, Structural basin, Sedimentary depositional environment and Facies.
His Paleontology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Sea level.
His study in Geomorphology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry and Tectonics.
His study in the fields of Subsidence and Rift under the domain of Structural basin overlaps with other disciplines such as Margin.
His study looks at the relationship between Sedimentary depositional environment and topics such as Turbidite, which overlap with Turbidity current.
Ronald J. Steel combines subjects such as Devonian and Cretaceous with his study of Facies.
