Donald Eugene Canfield (born 1957)[2][5] is an American geochemist and Professor of Ecology at the University of Southern Denmark known for his work on the evolution of Earth's atmosphere and oceans.[3][6][7][8][9][10] The Canfield ocean, a sulfidic partially oxic ocean existing during the middle of the Proterozoic eon, is named after him.[11]
