Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Oceanography

Samuel M. Savin mainly investigates Foraminifera, Paleontology, Oceanography, Isotopes of carbon and Geochemistry. He interconnects Ocean current and Plankton in the investigation of issues within Foraminifera. His research investigates the link between Paleontology and topics such as Deep sea that cross with problems in Paleoclimatology.

His studies deal with areas such as Seawater, Stable isotope ratio and Benthic zone as well as Isotopes of carbon. His work on Clay minerals, Illite and Calcite as part of general Geochemistry study is frequently linked to Mineral, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Clay minerals research incorporates elements of Sedimentary rock, Equilibrium fractionation, Quartz and Diagenesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Climate Change in Continental Isotopic Records (791 citations)
  • Tertiary marine paleotemperatures (474 citations)
  • Mechanism of burial metamorphism of argillaceous sediments: 3. O-isotope evidence (465 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Paleontology, Oceanography, Isotopes of oxygen and Mineralogy. His Paleontology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Foraminifera, Deep sea and Paleoclimatology. His Foraminifera research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Plankton, Stable isotope ratio, Ocean current and Isotopes of carbon.

His work in Oceanography tackles topics such as Late Miocene which are related to areas like Neogene. His Isotopes of oxygen study also includes

  • Kaolinite that intertwine with fields like Pedogenesis,
  • Fractionation which is related to area like Inorganic chemistry. His Mineralogy study incorporates themes from δ18O, Isotope analysis and Quartz.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (31.87%)
  • Paleontology (27.47%)
  • Oceanography (24.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1993-2008)?

  • Geochemistry (31.87%)
  • δ18O (7.69%)
  • Isotopes of oxygen (21.98%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, δ18O, Isotopes of oxygen, Paleontology and Kaolinite. Samuel M. Savin is interested in Clay minerals, which is a branch of Geochemistry. His studies in δ18O integrate themes in fields like Outcrop and Soil water.

His Isotopes of oxygen study combines topics in areas such as Fluid inclusions and Propylitic alteration. Samuel M. Savin focuses mostly in the field of Paleontology, narrowing it down to matters related to Oceanography and, in some cases, Tropics. Samuel M. Savin studies Foraminifera which is a part of Benthic zone.

Between 1993 and 2008, his most popular works were:

  • Evolution of late Campanian-Maastrichtian marine climates and oceans (215 citations)
  • Oxygen isotopic composition of soil water: Quantifying evaporation and transpiration (193 citations)
  • Evidence for thermohaline-circulation reversals controlled by sea-level change in the latest Cretaceous (122 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Oceanography

Samuel M. Savin spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Paleontology, Benthic zone, Ice sheet and δ18O. Samuel M. Savin does research in Oceanography, focusing on Sea level change specifically. The study incorporates disciplines such as Thermohaline circulation, Cretaceous, Tropics, Calcite and Sea level in addition to Benthic zone.

His Ice sheet study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Foraminifera.
