Overview

Samantha J. Gibbs is affiliated with the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom. Their research primarily focuses on Earth and Planetary Sciences, with a notable concentration in Paleontology, Oceanography, Ecology, Atmospheric Science, and Geology.

The main topics of their work include Paleontology and Stratigraphy of Fossils, Isotope Analysis in Ecology, Geology and Paleoclimatology Research, Marine Biology and Ecology Research, Geological Studies and Exploration, and Marine and Coastal Ecosystems.

Gibbs has contributed to several publication venues, particularly in journals that address paleontological and oceanographic studies. Frequent venues include:

  • Journal of Nannoplankton Research
  • Science Advances
  • Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology
  • Wildlife Society Bulletin

Among their recent papers are the following:

  • Algal plankton turn to hunting to survive and recover from end-Cretaceous impact darkness, 2020, Science Advances
  • Danian calcareous nannofossil evolution and taxonomy with focus on sites from the North Atlantic Ocean (IODP Expedition 342, Sites U1403 and U1407), 2023, Journal of Nannoplankton Research
  • Biogeochemical Traits of a High Latitude South Pacific Ocean Calcareous Nannoplankton Community During the Oligocene, 2024, Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology
  • Issue Information: Masthead, 2022, Wildlife Society Bulletin
  • What drove nannoplankton evolution and community dynamics through the Paleogene?, 2024, Journal of Nannoplankton Research

Their collaboration network shows frequent co-authorships with several researchers, including:

  • Paul R. Bown
  • Odysseas A. Archontikis
  • H. Kim
  • Ben A. Ward
  • Sarah A. Alvarez

The research produced by Gibbs frequently addresses topics related to fossil records and marine microscopic organisms. Their work on calcareous nannoplankton-tiny planktonic algae that produce calcium carbonate shells-forms a significant part of the scholarly output, contributing to understanding past ecological and climatic conditions.

Their interdisciplinary approach combines paleontological methods with geochemical and ecological analyses to explore evolutionary dynamics and environmental changes over geological timescales. This work supports broader investigations into marine and coastal ecosystems, as well as stratigraphic and isotope analysis applications in paleoclimatology.
