Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Paleontology
  • Basalt

Arthur H. Lachenbruch mostly deals with Geophysics, Heat flow, Geomorphology, Crust and Lithosphere. His Geophysics research includes elements of Sedimentary rock, Thermal conductivity and Mineralogy. His Heat flow study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Exponential function, Heat transfer, Petrology and Pluton.

Within one scientific family, Arthur H. Lachenbruch focuses on topics pertaining to Seismic wave under Geomorphology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Geothermal gradient. His Crust research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Surface heat flow, Exponential growth, Thermal subsidence and Underplating. Arthur H. Lachenbruch combines subjects such as Magmatism, Mid-ocean ridge, Continental crust and Basin and Range Province with his study of Lithosphere.

His most cited work include:

  • Heat flow and energetics of the San Andreas Fault Zone (735 citations)
  • Changing Climate: Geothermal Evidence from Permafrost in the Alaskan Arctic (631 citations)
  • Frictional heating, fluid pressure, and the resistance to fault motion (477 citations)

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

Arthur H. Lachenbruch mainly investigates Geophysics, Heat flow, Geomorphology, Crust and Lithosphere. He has researched Geophysics in several fields, including Strain rate, Petrology and Borehole. His Heat flow research integrates issues from Heat transfer, Exponential function and Pluton.

The concepts of his Geomorphology study are interwoven with issues in Permafrost, Arctic, Geothermal gradient, Geothermal energy and Caldera. Arthur H. Lachenbruch combines subjects such as Magmatism and Mantle with his study of Crust. His Lithosphere study incorporates themes from Transform fault, Mid-ocean ridge and Basin and Range Province.

Arthur H. Lachenbruch spends much of his time researching Heat flow, Geophysics, Crust, Structural basin and Heat transfer. His research in Geophysics focuses on subjects like Petrology, which are connected to Mantle, Lithosphere, Asthenosphere and Heat flux. His Crust research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Basin and range topography and Basin and Range Province.

His studies in Structural basin integrate themes in fields like Hydrology and Oceanography, Arctic. In Heat transfer, he works on issues like Erosion, which are connected to Thermal conductivity and Borehole. Borehole and Fault are commonly linked in his work.

Between 1992 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Heat Flow in the United States and the Thermal Regime of the Crust (309 citations)
  • Thermal regime of the southern Basin and Range Provincec 1. Heat flow data from Arizona and the Mojave Desert of California and Nevada (59 citations)
  • Thermal regime of the San Andreas fault near Parkfield, California (45 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
