He is particularly known for his work in paleobotany, being the author of many articles in this field. Göppert performed extensive research on the formation of coal and amber, and also conducted comparison studies between existing and fossil flora. In 1840, he demonstrated existence of plant cells in microscopic preparations of hard coal, which concluded a long-lasting debate on the origin of coal.[1] His private collection of specimens of fossil flora was considered the finest in the world.[2]
He was the father of a notable lawyer, Heinrich Robert Göppert, grandfather of Friedrich Göppert and great-grandfather of Maria Goeppert-Mayer (Nobel Prize in physics, 1963).
Göppert was a critic of Darwinism. In 1864 and 1865 he published papers criticising Charles Darwin's theory of common descent from research in botanical palaeontology.[5]
