What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Central American Seaway, Zircon, Basement and Neogene.
His research on Paleontology often connects related areas such as Geomorphology.
Agustín Cardona has researched Central American Seaway in several fields, including Magmatism and Orocline.
The concepts of his Magmatism study are interwoven with issues in Late Miocene, Sea level and Unconformity.
His Neogene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Paleomagnetism, Strike-slip tectonics, Subduction and Plate tectonics.
His Geochronology study incorporates themes from Provenance, Petrology and Fluvial.
His most cited work include:
- Middle Miocene closure of the Central American Seaway (307 citations)
- Evidence for middle Eocene and younger land emergence in central Panama: Implications for Isthmus closure (233 citations)
- Evidence for middle Eocene and younger land emergence in central Panama: Implications for Isthmus closure (233 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Geochemistry, Provenance, Subduction and Continental margin.
His is involved in several facets of Paleontology study, as is seen by his studies on Basement, Tectonics, Zircon, Sedimentary rock and Geochronology.
He focuses mostly in the field of Zircon, narrowing it down to topics relating to Late Miocene and, in certain cases, Sea level and Unconformity.
Agustín Cardona has included themes like Batholith, Magmatism, Back-arc basin and Pluton in his Geochemistry study.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Sedimentary basin, Plateau, Volcanic rock and Central American Seaway in addition to Magmatism.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Neogene, Earth science and Plate tectonics.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (64.66%)
- Geochemistry (25.00%)
- Provenance (25.00%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?
- Paleontology (64.66%)
- Geochemistry (25.00%)
- Tectonics (16.38%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Agustín Cardona focuses on Paleontology, Geochemistry, Tectonics, Provenance and Cretaceous.
While working in this field, he studies both Paleontology and Systematics.
His Pluton and Gondwana study in the realm of Tectonics interacts with subjects such as Remanence, Margin and Thermomagnetic convection.
In his research on the topic of Provenance, Continental crust, Siliciclastic and Foreland basin is strongly related with Sedimentary rock.
His research in Cretaceous intersects with topics in Detritus, Terrigenous sediment, Back-arc basin and Volcanic rock.
Agustín Cardona combines subjects such as Accretion, Rift, Basement, Sedimentary depositional environment and Plateau with his study of Continental margin.
Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Sedimentary record of the Cretaceous-Paleocene arc-continent collision in the northwestern Colombian Andes: Insights from stratigraphic and provenance constraints (6 citations)
- Historical Biogeography of Caribbean Plants Revises Regional Paleogeography (4 citations)
- Unravelling the widening of the earliest Andean northern orogen: Maastrichtian to early Eocene intra‐basinal deformation in the northern Eastern Cordillera of Colombia (3 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Plate tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
Agustín Cardona mainly investigates Provenance, Paleontology, Sedimentary rock, Clastic rock and Biogeography.
His Provenance study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Back-arc basin, Foreland basin, Volcanic rock and Cretaceous.
His is doing research in Sedimentary depositional environment, Continental margin, Continental crust, Siliciclastic and Terrigenous sediment, both of which are found in Paleontology.
His Biogeography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Archipelago, Global biodiversity, Species richness and Biodiversity hotspot.
Throughout his Biological dispersal studies, Agustín Cardona incorporates elements of other sciences such as Vicariance and Colonization.
