What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Volcano
- Basalt
- Paleontology
Agust Gudmundsson mainly focuses on Seismology, Petrology, Magma chamber, Volcano and Lava.
His work on Dike expands to the thematically related Seismology.
Agust Gudmundsson works mostly in the field of Petrology, limiting it down to topics relating to Stress field and, in certain cases, Classification of discontinuities.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Magma chamber, Sill are connected with Ridge and Oceanic crust and other disciplines.
He combines subjects such as Country rock and Tectonics with his study of Lava.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Fracture and Stress concentration in addition to Magma.
His most cited work include:
- How local stresses control magma-chamber ruptures, dyke injections, and eruptions in composite volcanoes (299 citations)
- Rock Fractures in Geological Processes (264 citations)
- Infrastructure and mechanics of volcanic systems in Iceland (247 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Agust Gudmundsson spends much of his time researching Seismology, Volcano, Petrology, Magma chamber and Lava.
His work deals with themes such as Dike and Stress field, which intersect with Seismology.
His Volcano research includes elements of Basalt and Tectonics.
His Sill study in the realm of Petrology connects with subjects such as Overpressure.
His work investigates the relationship between Magma chamber and topics such as Lateral eruption that intersect with problems in Peléan eruption.
His Lava study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Holocene, Pyroclastic rock, Geomorphology and Tension.
