Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Organic chemistry

Valier Galy mainly investigates Sediment, Total organic carbon, Erosion, Weathering and Carbon. His studies deal with areas such as Sedimentary rock and Hydrology, Floodplain as well as Sediment. His study ties his expertise on Carbon dioxide together with the subject of Total organic carbon.

His study explores the link between Weathering and topics such as Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere that cross with problems in Sedimentary basin, Organic matter, Earth science and Geologic Sediments. His Carbon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Oceanography and Radiocarbon dating. His research in Radiocarbon dating intersects with topics in Atmospheric carbon cycle, Carbon cycle, Cycle of erosion and Crust.

His most cited work include:

  • Efficient organic carbon burial in the Bengal fan sustained by the Himalayan erosional system. (378 citations)
  • Efficient organic carbon burial in the Bengal fan sustained by the Himalayan erosional system. (378 citations)
  • Global carbon export from the terrestrial biosphere controlled by erosion (224 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Total organic carbon, Sediment, Hydrology, Carbon cycle and Environmental chemistry. Valier Galy interconnects Organic matter, Earth science, Carbon, Oceanography and Carbon dioxide in the investigation of issues within Total organic carbon. His biological study deals with issues like Geologic Sediments, which deal with fields such as Sedimentary basin.

His Sediment study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary rock, Provenance and Weathering. His work on Tributary, Floodplain and Drainage basin as part of general Hydrology study is frequently connected to Flux, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. The study incorporates disciplines such as Soil science, Erosion, Atmospheric sciences and Cycling in addition to Carbon cycle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Total organic carbon (38.02%)
  • Sediment (23.14%)
  • Hydrology (19.83%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Total organic carbon (38.02%)
  • Environmental chemistry (15.70%)
  • Carbon cycle (19.83%)

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

Valier Galy spends much of his time researching Total organic carbon, Environmental chemistry, Carbon cycle, Carbon and Organic matter. His research integrates issues of Sedimentary rock, Geochemistry, Sediment and Carbon dioxide in his study of Total organic carbon. The concepts of his Sediment study are interwoven with issues in Sink and Physical geography.

Valier Galy has researched Environmental chemistry in several fields, including Particulate organic carbon and Weathering. His Carbon research integrates issues from Biomass, Oceanography, Glacial period and Radiocarbon dating. His Organic matter research focuses on Terrigenous sediment and how it connects with Geologic Sediments, Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, Environmental monitoring and Water pollutants.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mineral protection regulates long-term global preservation of natural organic carbon (95 citations)
  • Centers of organic carbon burial and oxidation at the land-ocean interface (71 citations)
  • Microbial oxidation of lithospheric organic carbon in rapidly eroding tropical mountain soils (43 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Climate change

His main research concerns Environmental chemistry, Total organic carbon, Carbon cycle, Carbon dioxide and Radiocarbon dating. In most of his Environmental chemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Sediment. Total organic carbon is closely attributed to Soil water in his study.

His Carbon cycle research incorporates themes from Organic matter and Continental margin. His Organic matter research includes themes of Bottom water, Sedimentary depositional environment, Earth science and Terrigenous sediment. His Carbon dioxide research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Carbon and Weathering.
