Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt

Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Craton, Paleontology, Zircon and Rift. His Geochemistry research includes elements of Proterozoic, Granulite, Metamorphic facies and Plutonism. His Metamorphic facies research integrates issues from Tonian and Mafic.

Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares interconnects Metamorphism, Back-arc basin and Oceanic crust in the investigation of issues within Craton. Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares regularly ties together related areas like Basement in his Zircon studies. Rift is the subject of his research, which falls under Geomorphology.

His most cited work include:

  • The Araçuaí-West-Congo Orogen in Brazil: an overview of a confined orogen formed during Gondwanaland assembly (301 citations)
  • Kinematic evolution of the Araçuaí-West Congo orogen in Brazil and Africa: Nutcracker tectonics during the Neoproterozoic assembly of Gondwana (222 citations)
  • Evolution of polycyclic basement complexes in the Araçuaí Orogen, based on U–Pb SHRIMP data: Implications for Brazil–Africa links in Paleoproterozoic time (131 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares mainly investigates Geochemistry, Zircon, Paleontology, Geomorphology and Mineralogy. Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares has included themes like Back-arc basin, Basement and Pluton in his Geochemistry study. Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares combines subjects such as Orosirian, Rhyacian and Archean with his study of Basement.

His Zircon research incorporates elements of Gondwana, Provenance, Craton and Geochronology. In his research, Banded iron formation is intimately related to Rift, which falls under the overarching field of Craton. His study looks at the relationship between Mineralogy and fields such as Schist, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (64.34%)
  • Zircon (39.53%)
  • Paleontology (18.60%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (64.34%)
  • Zircon (39.53%)
  • Tonian (15.50%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Zircon, Tonian, Gondwana and Back-arc basin. As part of his studies on Geochemistry, Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares often connects relevant areas like Granulite. His research in Zircon intersects with topics in Craton, Gneiss, Provenance and Statherian.

His research investigates the link between Craton and topics such as Suture that cross with problems in Ophiolite. In Tonian, Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares works on issues like Orosirian, which are connected to Stenian, Rhyacian and Archean. His studies examine the connections between Back-arc basin and genetics, as well as such issues in Arc system, with regards to Basalt.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rhyacian-Orosirian isotopic records from the basement of the Araçuaí-Ribeira orogenic system (SE Brazil): Links in the Congo-São Francisco palaeocontinent (35 citations)
  • Protracted zircon geochronological record of UHT garnet-free granulites in the Southern Brasília orogen (SE Brazil): Petrochronological constraints on magmatism and metamorphism (22 citations)
  • Provenance shift from a continental margin to a syn-orogenic basin in the Neoproterozoic Araxá nappe system, southern Brasília belt, Brazil (20 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt

Geochemistry, Zircon, Gondwana, Back-arc basin and Metamorphism are his primary areas of study. He has researched Geochemistry in several fields, including Rhyacian and Craton. His Rhyacian study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Basement, Archean and Continental crust, Crust.

His studies deal with areas such as Orosirian, Felsic, Mafic and Statherian as well as Zircon. The concepts of his Gondwana study are interwoven with issues in Rift and Syncline. The various areas that Antônio Carlos Pedrosa-Soares examines in his Metamorphism study include Nappe and Metamorphic rock.
