Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Walter L. Manger's research focuses on sedimentary geology, with recent work examining the sedimentary evolution and sea-level fluctuations of Paleo-Tethyan carbonate-dominated successions in central China. He has also investigated the sequence stratigraphic division and depositional environments of Jurassic formations in China's Ordos Basin. His work extends to the geochemistry of metallic ore deposits, specifically studying radiogenic lead enrichment in Mississippi Valley-type deposits in the southern Ozarks, using geochemical studies of source rocks and their diagenetic history as constraints. Manger also studies sediment dispersal networks within continental interiors, as evidenced by his research on the Early Carboniferous intertwining sediment dispersal network across the Laurentian cratonic interior.

Manger has published 67 papers, with a total of 608 citations and an h-index of 16. He has collaborated with Adriana Potra and Jonathan T. Chick, both from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, on multiple publications.
