Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecology
  • Oceanography

His primary scientific interests are in Sediment, Oceanography, Benthic zone, Water column and Diagenesis. His work in Sediment covers topics such as Total organic carbon which are related to areas like Pore water pressure and Sink. The concepts of his Oceanography study are interwoven with issues in Organic matter and Particulate organic carbon.

William M. Berelson integrates Water column and Alkalinity in his studies. Many of his research projects under Diagenesis are closely connected to Sulfide with Sulfide, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His biological study deals with issues like Environmental chemistry, which deal with fields such as Marine biology.

His most cited work include:

  • Impact of Anthropogenic CO2 on the CaCO3 System in the Oceans (1628 citations)
  • The flux of iron from continental shelf sediments: A missing source for global budgets (336 citations)
  • Geochemistry of barium in marine sediments: implications for its use as a paleoproxy (285 citations)

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

William M. Berelson mainly investigates Oceanography, Benthic zone, Sediment, Water column and Environmental chemistry. While the research belongs to areas of Oceanography, he spends his time largely on the problem of Total organic carbon, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Dissolved organic carbon and Structural basin. His Benthic zone study incorporates themes from Bay, Hydrology, Bottom water, Nutrient and Sediment–water interface.

His Sediment research integrates issues from Geochemistry and Diagenesis. In his research on the topic of Water column, Pore water pressure and Carbon dioxide is strongly related with Mineralogy. His research in Environmental chemistry focuses on subjects like Dissolution, which are connected to Analytical chemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (29.58%)
  • Benthic zone (19.58%)
  • Sediment (20.00%)

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

  • Dissolution (10.42%)
  • Calcite (7.50%)
  • Seawater (12.92%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Dissolution, Calcite, Seawater, Environmental chemistry and Alkalinity. His Dissolution study which covers Mineralogy that intersects with Isotope analysis. Seawater is a subfield of Oceanography that William M. Berelson explores.

His study on Dissolved organic carbon and Total organic carbon is often connected to Biogeosciences and Flavin mononucleotide as part of broader study in Environmental chemistry. His work deals with themes such as Continental shelf, Carbon cycle, Biogeochemistry and Dredging, which intersect with Total organic carbon. His research investigates the connection between Biogeochemical cycle and topics such as Oceanic carbon cycle that intersect with issues in Benthic zone.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Temperature Dependence of Calcite Dissolution Kinetics in Seawater (18 citations)
  • Metabolic Capability and Phylogenetic Diversity of Mono Lake during a Bloom of the Eukaryotic Phototroph Picocystis sp. Strain ML. (17 citations)
  • Anthropogenic disturbance keeps the coastal seafloor biogeochemistry in a transient state (15 citations)

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

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Ecology
  • Oceanography

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Calcite, Dissolution, Seawater, Mineralogy and Water column. His work on Ocean acidification as part of general Seawater study is frequently linked to Saturation and Materials science, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Isotope analysis and Iron sulfide.

His studies deal with areas such as Community, Pore water pressure, Isotope fractionation and Microbial population biology as well as Water column. His research investigates the connection between Pore water pressure and topics such as Diagenesis that intersect with problems in Dissolved organic carbon. His work focuses on many connections between Dissolved organic carbon and other disciplines, such as Benthic zone, that overlap with his field of interest in Total organic carbon.
