Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Paleontology
  • Climate change

His scientific interests lie mostly in Holocene, Climatology, Younger Dryas, Climate change and Fluvial. His Holocene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Aggradation and Erosion. His study in Climatology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate model and Stadial.

His work in the fields of Younger Dryas, such as Older Dryas, overlaps with other areas such as Tephra. His Fluvial study incorporates themes from Sedimentary depositional environment, Permafrost, Sediment and Physical geography. His Physical geography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hydrology, Drainage basin, Aeolian processes and Thermokarst.

His most cited work include:

  • Mean July Temperatures during the Younger Dryas in Northwestern and Central Europe as Inferred from Climate Indicator Plant Species (183 citations)
  • Climate‐related river activity at the Weichselian‐Holocene transition: a comparative study of the Warta and Maas rivers (134 citations)
  • Century-scale shifts in early holocene atmospheric CO2 concentration (105 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Physical geography, Holocene, Glacial period, Climate change and Fluvial. His Physical geography research includes themes of Pollen, Permafrost, Sediment, Hydrology and Stadial. His Holocene study combines topics in areas such as Palynology and Floodplain.

His work carried out in the field of Glacial period brings together such families of science as Radiocarbon dating and Archaeology. His Climate change research integrates issues from Climatology, Vegetation and Early Pleistocene. His Fluvial course of study focuses on Aeolian processes and Earth science and Sedimentary depositional environment.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Physical geography (38.00%)
  • Holocene (34.00%)
  • Glacial period (29.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2018)?

  • Physical geography (38.00%)
  • Hydrology (18.00%)
  • Holocene (34.00%)

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

Sjoerd Bohncke mainly focuses on Physical geography, Hydrology, Holocene, Drainage basin and Floodplain. His research combines Fluvial and Physical geography. His research investigates the connection between Fluvial and topics such as Glacial period that intersect with issues in Sedimentary basin and Oceanography.

Sjoerd Bohncke works mostly in the field of Hydrology, limiting it down to topics relating to Palynology and, in certain cases, Vegetation, Period and Biostratigraphy. His work investigates the relationship between Holocene and topics such as Climate change that intersect with problems in Pleistocene. His Floodplain study also includes

  • Overbank that connect with fields like Clastic rock, Sediment, Diachronous and Peat,
  • Radiocarbon dating most often made with reference to Alluvium.

Between 2013 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Reconstruction and semi-quantification of human impact in the Dijle catchment, central Belgium: a palynological and statistical approach (19 citations)
  • From natural to human-dominated floodplain geoecology - A Holocene perspective for the Dijle catchment, Belgium (17 citations)
  • Specifying the External Impact on Fluvial Lowland Evolution: The Last Glacial Tisza (Tisa) Catchment in Hungary and Serbia (15 citations)
