Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sediment
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Oceanography

Sediment, Geomorphology, Turbidite, Turbidity current and Oceanography are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Hydrology, Structural basin, Discharge and Storm as well as Sediment. His study on Sediment transport, Erosion, Sedimentary budget and Hummocky cross-stratification is often connected to Kinetic energy as part of broader study in Geomorphology.

His Turbidite research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary depositional environment and Canyon. His Turbidity current research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sedimentary rock, Deposition and Plume. The Oceanography study combines topics in areas such as Mediterranean climate and Contourite.

His most cited work include:

  • Turbidity Currents Generated at River Mouths during Exceptional Discharges to the World Oceans (659 citations)
  • Marine hyperpycnal flows: initiation, behavior and related deposits. A review (612 citations)
  • Classification of Offshore Mass Movements (380 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Geomorphology, Sedimentary rock, Paleontology, Sediment and Turbidite. His Geomorphology study combines topics in areas such as Continental shelf and Seafloor spreading. His work carried out in the field of Sedimentary rock brings together such families of science as Petrology and Mediterranean sea.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Oceanography, Erosion and Quaternary in addition to Sediment. The concepts of his Turbidite study are interwoven with issues in Flood myth, Fjord and Levee. In his research on the topic of Turbidity current, Discharge is strongly related with River mouth.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geomorphology (39.08%)
  • Sedimentary rock (39.08%)
  • Paleontology (30.46%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Sedimentary rock (39.08%)
  • Paleontology (30.46%)
  • Sedimentary depositional environment (21.84%)

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

Thierry Mulder mainly investigates Sedimentary rock, Paleontology, Sedimentary depositional environment, Sediment and Geomorphology. He has researched Sedimentary rock in several fields, including Seismic facies, Sedimentation, Carbonate platform, Morphology and Canyon. Thierry Mulder combines subjects such as Neogene, Oceanography, Pleistocene and Turbidite with his study of Sedimentary depositional environment.

His Turbidite study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Turbidity current. His research in Sediment intersects with topics in Deep sea, Front and Petrology. His Geomorphology research includes themes of Seafloor spreading and Bathymetry.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Large-scale carbonate submarine mass-wasting along the northwestern slope of the Great Bahama Bank (Bahamas): Morphology, architecture, and mechanisms (49 citations)
  • Origin and architecture of a Mass Transport Complex on the northwest slope of Little Bahama Bank (Bahamas): Relations between off-bank transport, bottom current sedimentation and submarine landslides (39 citations)
  • Evolution of the Danube Deep-Sea Fan since the Last Glacial Maximum: new insights into Black Sea water-level fluctuations (27 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Sediment
  • Oceanography

His main research concerns Sedimentary depositional environment, Paleontology, Geomorphology, Escarpment and Sedimentary rock. His Sedimentary depositional environment study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Neogene and Quaternary. His study in the field of Bedform and Sinuosity is also linked to topics like Wavelength, Plunge pool and Wedge.

His Sedimentary rock research includes elements of Deposition and Sedimentation. His Facies research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Turbidity current and Mass wasting. Thierry Mulder combines subjects such as Sediment and Bathymetry with his study of Submarine landslide.
