Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock
  • Volcano

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Zircon, Mineralogy, Geochronology and Petrology. His study in Caldera, Magma, Silicic, Volcano and Magma chamber is carried out as part of his Geochemistry studies. His Zircon research integrates issues from Rhyolite, Isotopes of oxygen and Continental crust.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Saturation, δ18O, Dissolution and Analytical chemistry. His Geochronology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Secondary ion mass spectrometry, Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, Radiogenic nuclide, Lava and Precambrian. When carried out as part of a general Petrology research project, his work on Metamorphism, Main Central Thrust and Andalusite is frequently linked to work in Volume, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Zircon saturation re-revisited (498 citations)
  • U-Pb zircon geochronology of late Neoproterozoic–Early Cambrian granitoids in Iran: Implications for paleogeography, magmatism, and exhumation history of Iranian basement (214 citations)
  • Early (≥ 4.5 Ga) formation of terrestrial crust: Lu–Hf, δ18O, and Ti thermometry results for Hadean zircons (208 citations)

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

Axel K. Schmitt mostly deals with Geochemistry, Zircon, Volcano, Magma and Geochronology. Geochemistry is a component of his Rhyolite, Silicic, Caldera, Volcanic rock and Basalt studies. Axel K. Schmitt combines subjects such as Pyroclastic rock, Magma chamber, Metamorphism, Mineralogy and Tephra with his study of Zircon.

His research integrates issues of Secondary ion mass spectrometry and Analytical chemistry in his study of Mineralogy. His Magma research incorporates elements of Melt inclusions and Pluton. His Geochronology study incorporates themes from Radiometric dating and Baddeleyite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (78.29%)
  • Zircon (58.55%)
  • Volcano (24.01%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (78.29%)
  • Zircon (58.55%)
  • Volcano (24.01%)

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

Geochemistry, Zircon, Volcano, Geochronology and Magma are his primary areas of study. His research on Geochemistry often connects related areas such as Subduction. His Zircon study combines topics in areas such as Rhyolite, Radiometric dating, Pleistocene, Isotopes of oxygen and Silicic.

His Volcano research incorporates themes from Xenolith, Trace element, Quaternary and Plagioclase. His Geochronology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Volcanism, Metamorphic rock, Vulcanian eruption and Baddeleyite. The Magma study combines topics in areas such as Felsic and Petrology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Blueschist from the Mariana forearc records long-lived residence of material in the subduction channel (16 citations)
  • Episodes of dormancy and eruption of the Late Pleistocene Ciomadul volcanic complex (Eastern Carpathians, Romania) constrained by zircon geochronology (15 citations)
  • Coeval Early Ediacaran Breakup of Amazonia, Baltica, and Laurentia: Evidence From Micro‐Baddeleyite Dating of Dykes From the Novillo Canyon, Mexico (10 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock

Axel K. Schmitt focuses on Geochemistry, Zircon, Volcano, Geochronology and Pyroclastic rock. His study on Geochemistry is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Subduction. His work carried out in the field of Zircon brings together such families of science as Metamorphism, Forearc, Mud volcano and Silicic.

The various areas that Axel K. Schmitt examines in his Geochronology study include Isotopes of oxygen and Lithium. His study looks at the intersection of Pyroclastic rock and topics like Quaternary with Marker horizon, Volcanology, Volcanic ash, Early Pleistocene and Pleistocene. His work deals with themes such as Rhyolite and Radiocarbon dating, which intersect with Tephra.
