Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Climate change
  • Paleontology

His primary areas of study are Ice sheet, Geodesy, Post-glacial rebound, Subduction and Antarctic ice sheet. His research integrates issues of Climatology, Deglaciation and Ice stream in his study of Ice sheet. His Deglaciation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Physical geography and Last Glacial Maximum.

His Post-glacial rebound research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacier and Bay. In general Subduction, his work in Volcanic arc is often linked to Global Positioning System linking many areas of study. His Seismology study combines topics in areas such as Transition zone and Peninsula.

His most cited work include:

  • A silent slip event on the deeper Cascadia subduction interface. (687 citations)
  • Observation of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment in “Stable” North America with GPS (244 citations)
  • History and isostatic effects of the last ice sheet in southern British Columbia (212 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Post-glacial rebound, Ice sheet, Geodesy, Sea level and Deglaciation. His Post-glacial rebound research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Climatology, Tectonic uplift, Tide gauge, Horizontal and vertical and Seismology. In the field of Seismology, his study on Subduction, Tectonics and Thrust fault overlaps with subjects such as Strain rate.

His Ice sheet research also works with subjects such as

  • Glacier most often made with reference to Glacial period,
  • Ice stream which intersects with area such as Ice core. His Geodesy research includes themes of Gravitation, Gravitational field and Antarctic ice sheet. As a member of one scientific family, Thomas S. James mostly works in the field of Deglaciation, focusing on Physical geography and, on occasion, Bay.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Post-glacial rebound (56.88%)
  • Ice sheet (42.20%)
  • Geodesy (34.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Post-glacial rebound (56.88%)
  • Sea level (33.94%)
  • Climatology (17.43%)

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

Thomas S. James mainly focuses on Post-glacial rebound, Sea level, Climatology, Ice sheet and Global Positioning System. The study incorporates disciplines such as Drainage basin, Hydrology, Structural basin and Geodesy in addition to Post-glacial rebound. His Geodesy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Empirical orthogonal functions and Tectonics.

His research investigates the connection with Sea level and areas like Holocene which intersect with concerns in Pleistocene. His Ice sheet study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Tectonic uplift, Geophysics, Arctic, Physical geography and Last Glacial Maximum. His studies deal with areas such as Deglaciation and Bay as well as Physical geography.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Antarctic contribution to sea level rise observed by GRACE with improved GIA correction (150 citations)
  • Antarctic contribution to sea level rise observed by GRACE with improved GIA correction (150 citations)
  • Detectability of groundwater storage change within the Great Lakes Water Basin using GRACE (33 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Climate change
  • Oceanography

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Post-glacial rebound, Ice sheet, Geodesy, Climatology and Global Positioning System. His Post-glacial rebound research incorporates elements of Drainage basin, Hydrology, Water storage and Structural basin. His Ice sheet research integrates issues from Sea level rise, Lithosphere, Antarctic ice sheet and Series.

His studies in Geodesy integrate themes in fields like Last Glacial Maximum, Tectonic uplift and Arctic. His Sea level research extends to Climatology, which is thematically connected. The Sea level study combines topics in areas such as Archaeology, Pleistocene, Shore and Fell.
