Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Paleontology
  • Ice age

Siwan M. Davies mainly focuses on Tephra, Ice core, Tephrochronology, Volcano and Paleontology. Siwan M. Davies has researched Tephra in several fields, including Radiocarbon dating and Chronology. Her Ice core research includes themes of Stadial, Physical geography, Greenland ice sheet, Geomorphology and Eemian.

In her work, Paleoclimatology is strongly intertwined with Climatology, which is a subfield of Stadial. Her Tephrochronology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peat, Volcanic ash and Earth science. She focuses mostly in the field of Earth science, narrowing it down to matters related to Quaternary and, in some cases, Oceanography.

Her most cited work include:

  • A 60 000 year Greenland stratigraphic ice core chronology (747 citations)
  • Eemian interglacial reconstructed from a Greenland folded ice core (419 citations)
  • The Greenland Ice Core Chronology 2005, 15-42 ka. Part 2: comparison to other records (329 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Tephra, Ice core, Paleontology, Glacial period and Tephrochronology. Her Tephra study combines topics in areas such as Radiocarbon dating, Earth science and Holocene. Her Radiocarbon dating study incorporates themes from Macrofossil and Older Dryas.

Her study in Ice core is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ice sheet and Stadial. Her research integrates issues of Atmospheric sciences, Physical geography and Global change in her study of Glacial period. Her studies deal with areas such as Varve, Climate change, Quaternary, Archaeology and Sedimentary depositional environment as well as Tephrochronology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Tephra (56.25%)
  • Ice core (38.39%)
  • Paleontology (32.14%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Tephra (56.25%)
  • Ice core (38.39%)
  • Glacial period (28.57%)

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

Siwan M. Davies mostly deals with Tephra, Ice core, Glacial period, Volcano and Oceanography. Her study on Tephra is covered under Geochemistry. Siwan M. Davies interconnects Deglaciation, Mineralogy and Microanalysis in the investigation of issues within Ice core.

The various areas that Siwan M. Davies examines in her Glacial period study include Tephrochronology and Atmospheric sciences. Her Volcano study is related to the wider topic of Paleontology. Her work carried out in the field of Paleontology brings together such families of science as Greenland ice core project and Climate change.

Between 2017 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • The Lateglacial to early Holocene tephrochronological record from Lake Hämelsee, Germany: a key site within the European tephra framework (18 citations)
  • Climate and environment in southwest Sweden 15.5–11.3 cal. ka BP (14 citations)
  • Tracing marine cryptotephras in the North Atlantic during the last glacial period: Improving the North Atlantic marine tephrostratigraphic framework (13 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Paleontology
  • Ice age

Siwan M. Davies mainly investigates Tephra, Paleoclimatology, Volcano, Sedimentary rock and Glacial period. Her research in Tephra intersects with topics in Maar and Quaternary. Her Volcano research includes elements of Varve, Sediment core and Archaeology, Holocene.

The Sedimentary rock study combines topics in areas such as Physical geography, Sediment and Paleoecology. Her Glacial period research incorporates elements of Tephrochronology, Sedimentary depositional environment and Earth science. Tephrochronology is a subfield of Paleontology that she studies.
