Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Ecology

William J. Cooper spends much of his time researching Environmental chemistry, Hydrogen peroxide, Photochemistry, Dissolved organic carbon and Oceanography. His study on Water pollution is often connected to Environmental pollution as part of broader study in Environmental chemistry. William J. Cooper has researched Hydrogen peroxide in several fields, including Diel vertical migration, Chemical reaction, Peroxide and Rainwater harvesting.

His studies deal with areas such as Natural water and Radical, Hydroxyl radical as well as Photochemistry. William J. Cooper combines subjects such as Seawater and Analytical chemistry, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance, Mass spectrometry with his study of Dissolved organic carbon. His study in the field of Estuary and Surface ocean is also linked to topics like Colored dissolved organic matter.

His most cited work include:

  • Biogenic sulfur in the environment (364 citations)
  • Photochemical formation of hydrogen peroxide in surface and ground waters exposed to sunlight. (332 citations)
  • Photochemical formation of hydrogen peroxide in natural waters exposed to sunlight. (239 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental chemistry, Aqueous solution, Inorganic chemistry, Photochemistry and Wastewater. The concepts of his Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Chlorine, Water treatment, Catalysis, Hydrogen peroxide and Seawater. His Hydrogen peroxide research includes themes of Diel vertical migration, Oceanography and Peroxide.

In Aqueous solution, William J. Cooper works on issues like Benzene, which are connected to Toluene. His Photochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Natural water, Aquatic ecosystem and Hydroxyl radical. His biological study deals with issues like Effluent, which deal with fields such as Sewage and Organic matter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (30.19%)
  • Aqueous solution (20.13%)
  • Inorganic chemistry (15.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2018)?

  • Hydroxyl radical (11.95%)
  • Photochemistry (13.84%)
  • Reaction rate constant (10.06%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Hydroxyl radical, Photochemistry, Reaction rate constant, Environmental chemistry and Radical. The study incorporates disciplines such as Solvated electron, Radiolysis, Inorganic chemistry, Free-radical reaction and Reaction mechanism in addition to Hydroxyl radical. His Photochemistry research includes elements of Hydrogen peroxide formation, Cathode ray and Aqueous solution.

William J. Cooper does research in Environmental chemistry, focusing on Dissolved organic carbon specifically. His studies in Dissolved organic carbon integrate themes in fields like Mass spectrometry, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance and Analytical chemistry. The various areas that William J. Cooper examines in his Radical study include Ether, Reaction rate and Chemical reaction.

Between 2001 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Characterization of CDOM in an organic-rich river and surrounding coastal ocean in the South Atlantic Bight (178 citations)
  • Photochemically induced changes in dissolved organic matter identified by ultrahigh resolution fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. (152 citations)
  • Free Radical Destruction of β-Blockers in Aqueous Solution (145 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Ecology

His main research concerns Hydroxyl radical, Reaction rate constant, Photochemistry, Dissolved organic carbon and Organic chemistry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Solvated electron, Water treatment and Reaction rate. While the research belongs to areas of Solvated electron, William J. Cooper spends his time largely on the problem of Free-radical reaction, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Nuclear chemistry.

William J. Cooper has included themes like Stereochemistry and Reaction mechanism in his Photochemistry study. His Dissolved organic carbon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Estuary and Analytical chemistry, Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance, Mass spectrometry. His research investigates the link between Kendrick mass and topics such as Environmental chemistry that cross with problems in Human decontamination.
