Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Oceanography

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Oceanography, Eocene Thermal Maximum 2, Cretaceous and Deep sea. Timothy J. Bralower performs integrative Paleontology and Extinction event research in his work. As a part of the same scientific study, Timothy J. Bralower usually deals with the Oceanography, concentrating on Paleogene and frequently concerns with Cenozoic and Phanerozoic.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Eocene Thermal Maximum 2, Carbon isotope excursion are connected with Ocean current, Fauna, Pacific ocean, Ephemeral key and Tropical pacific and other disciplines. His Cretaceous research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biostratigraphy, Geologic time scale, Marl and Aquatic ecosystem. Timothy J. Bralower interconnects Magnetostratigraphy, Total organic carbon and Paleoceanography in the investigation of issues within Deep sea.

His most cited work include:

  • The Chicxulub Asteroid Impact and Mass Extinction at the Cretaceous-Paleogene Boundary (792 citations)
  • Oceanic anoxic events and plankton evolution: Biotic response to tectonic forcing during the mid-Cretaceous (624 citations)
  • A Transient Rise in Tropical Sea Surface Temperature During the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (490 citations)

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

Timothy J. Bralower mainly focuses on Paleontology, Oceanography, Cretaceous, Paleogene and Biostratigraphy. His Paleontology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Foraminifera, Deep sea and Impact crater. The concepts of his Deep sea study are interwoven with issues in Total organic carbon and Isotopes of carbon.

His research investigates the connection between Oceanography and topics such as Carbon cycle that intersect with issues in Chronology. Timothy J. Bralower has researched Cretaceous in several fields, including Seawater, Sea level and Southern Hemisphere. His Biostratigraphy research includes themes of Magnetostratigraphy and Calcareous.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (57.73%)
  • Oceanography (28.18%)
  • Cretaceous (25.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Paleontology (57.73%)
  • Impact crater (10.91%)
  • Oceanography (28.18%)

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

Timothy J. Bralower mainly investigates Paleontology, Impact crater, Oceanography, Extinction event and Geochemistry. His work carried out in the field of Paleontology brings together such families of science as Sea level and Habitat. His work in the fields of Oceanography, such as Foraminifera, Ocean acidification and Global warming, overlaps with other areas such as Environmental science and Event.

His work on Impact winter and Iridium anomaly as part of general Extinction event research is frequently linked to Paleogene, Impact structure and Environmental chemistry, bridging the gap between disciplines. His studies deal with areas such as Abundance, Sedimentation and Shield as well as Geochemistry. In his work, Biodiversity is strongly intertwined with Productivity, which is a subfield of Cretaceous.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rapid recovery of life at ground zero of the end-Cretaceous mass extinction (63 citations)
  • Rock fluidization during peak-ring formation of large impact structures (37 citations)
  • Extraordinary rocks from the peak ring of the Chicxulub impact crater: P-wave velocity, density, and porosity measurements from IODP/ICDP Expedition 364 (31 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Ecology
  • Sedimentary rock

His main research concerns Paleontology, Impact crater, Extinction event, Oceanography and Environmental science. Timothy J. Bralower works in the field of Paleontology, focusing on Cretaceous in particular. His study looks at the relationship between Cretaceous and fields such as Productivity, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Timothy J. Bralower has included themes like Boom, Bust, Sedimentary rock, Calcareous and Breccia in his Impact crater study. His Ocean acidification, Global warming and Foraminifera investigations are all subjects of Oceanography research. His Global warming research integrates issues from Sediment, Water column, Diagenesis, Bottom water and Benthic zone.
