Fellow of the Geological Society of America

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Erosion
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology

His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Glacial period, Holocene, Climate change and Climatology. His research integrates issues of Paleomagnetism, Sediment and Arid in his study of Oceanography. His Glacial period research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Weathering rind, Microclimate, Pleistocene and Shore.

His studies deal with areas such as Meltwater, East Asian Monsoon, Plateau and Total organic carbon as well as Holocene. His study on Paleoclimatology and Climate model is often connected to Environmental science as part of broader study in Climate change. In his study, Geochemistry, Basalt and Weathering is inextricably linked to Quaternary, which falls within the broad field of Paleoclimatology.

His most cited work include:

  • Interplay between the Westerlies and Asian monsoon recorded in Lake Qinghai sediments since 32 ka. (416 citations)
  • Lake Superior summer water temperatures are increasing more rapidly than regional air temperatures: A positive ice-albedo feedback (365 citations)
  • Global climate evolution during the last deglaciation (271 citations)

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

Steven M. Colman mostly deals with Oceanography, Holocene, Glacial period, Paleontology and Quaternary. His studies link Sediment with Oceanography. He combines subjects such as Sedimentary rock, East Asian Monsoon, Plateau and Radiocarbon dating with his study of Holocene.

His research investigates the connection between Glacial period and topics such as Biogenic silica that intersect with issues in Total organic carbon. His work on Structural basin, Sedimentary depositional environment and Ridge as part of his general Paleontology study is frequently connected to Delta, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His study on Quaternary also encompasses disciplines like

  • Geochemistry that intertwine with fields like Deposition,
  • Rift which is related to area like Turbidite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (42.86%)
  • Holocene (29.41%)
  • Glacial period (26.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Holocene (29.41%)
  • Glacial period (26.05%)
  • Oceanography (42.86%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Holocene, Glacial period, Oceanography, Paleontology and Plateau. Steven M. Colman interconnects East Asian Monsoon, Climatology, Flood myth and Paleoclimatology in the investigation of issues within Holocene. His Glacial period research incorporates elements of Monsoon and Quaternary.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Radiocarbon dating and Physical geography. His study looks at the relationship between Paleontology and topics such as Geomorphology, which overlap with Lithology, Tephra and Volcano. His work investigates the relationship between Plateau and topics such as Westerlies that intersect with problems in Atmospheric circulation, Orbital forcing and Asian summer monsoon.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Interplay between the Westerlies and Asian monsoon recorded in Lake Qinghai sediments since 32 ka. (416 citations)
  • Global climate evolution during the last deglaciation (271 citations)
  • Freshwater outburst from lake superior as a trigger for the cold event 9300 years ago. (91 citations)

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

  • Erosion
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology

Steven M. Colman focuses on Holocene, Glacial period, Plateau, Climatology and Paleoclimatology. His Glacial period research includes elements of Westerlies and Monsoon. The various areas that Steven M. Colman examines in his Westerlies study include Atmospheric circulation, Orbital forcing and Asian summer monsoon.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Younger Dryas, Environmental change, Ecosystem and Growing season in addition to Monsoon. His study focuses on the intersection of Plateau and fields such as East Asian Monsoon with connections in the field of Vegetation, Physical geography, Palynology, Pollen and Radiocarbon dating. His study on Paleoclimatology is covered under Oceanography.
