Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry
  • Ecology

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Mineralogy, Weathering, Dissolution, Inorganic chemistry and Geochemistry. Her Mineralogy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mineral and Plagioclase, Quartz, Biotite, Hornblende. Her Weathering research incorporates elements of Bedrock, Silicate minerals, Earth science and Regolith.

Her Bedrock study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Earth materials, Ridge, Erosion and Oil shale. Her Dissolution research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nucleation, Feldspar, Analytical chemistry, Environmental chemistry and Albite. Her research integrates issues of Goethite, Adsorption, Reaction rate constant, Fractionation and Aqueous solution in her study of Inorganic chemistry.

Her most cited work include:

  • Impact of Shale Gas Development on Regional Water Quality (911 citations)
  • The effect of time on the weathering of silicate minerals: why do weathering rates differ in the laboratory and field? (766 citations)
  • THE SIZE DISTRIBUTION OF FRAMBOIDAL PYRITE IN MODERN SEDIMENTS : AN INDICATOR OF REDOX CONDITIONS (661 citations)

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

Susan L. Brantley mainly investigates Weathering, Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Dissolution and Regolith. Her studies in Weathering integrate themes in fields like Bedrock, Soil water and Oil shale. Her work deals with themes such as Soil production function and Groundwater, which intersect with Geochemistry.

Susan L. Brantley has included themes like Porosity and Quartz, Feldspar, Plagioclase in her Mineralogy study. Her Dissolution study also includes

  • Inorganic chemistry that intertwine with fields like Aqueous solution,
  • Mineral which intersects with area such as Environmental chemistry. Susan L. Brantley has researched Regolith in several fields, including Soil science and Earth science.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Weathering (33.03%)
  • Geochemistry (23.37%)
  • Mineralogy (23.82%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Weathering (33.03%)
  • Oil shale (13.71%)
  • Geochemistry (23.37%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Weathering, Oil shale, Geochemistry, Hydrology and Regolith. Her Weathering study combines topics in areas such as Porosity, Groundwater, Mineralogy, Bedrock and Erosion. Her studies in Mineralogy integrate themes in fields like Weathering rind, Clastic rock and Dissolution.

Her study looks at the relationship between Oil shale and topics such as Pyrite, which overlap with Carbonate. Her Geochemistry study incorporates themes from Soil chemistry and Plagioclase. Her work deals with themes such as Soil gas and Mineral, which intersect with Regolith.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Controls on deep critical zone architecture: a historical review and four testable hypotheses (110 citations)
  • Expanding the role of reactive transport models in critical zone processes (109 citations)
  • Hillslope Hydrology in Global Change Research and Earth System Modeling (93 citations)

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

  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry
  • Carbon dioxide

Susan L. Brantley spends much of her time researching Weathering, Geochemistry, Regolith, Bedrock and Oil shale. Her Weathering study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mineralogy, Meteoric water, Groundwater and Fracture. Susan L. Brantley is studying Kaolinite, which is a component of Mineralogy.

Her Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Groundwater chemistry and Plagioclase. Her Regolith research also works with subjects such as

  • Borehole which intersects with area such as Biotite, Seismic refraction and Spatial ecology,
  • Soil science and related Dissolution, Macropore and Albite,
  • Mineral, Pyroxene and Topsoil most often made with reference to Isotope fractionation. Her Bedrock research incorporates themes from Hydrology, STREAMS, Illite and Earth science.
