Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Magma
  • Basalt

Barry Voight mostly deals with Volcano, Seismology, Magma, Lava dome and Pyroclastic rock. His Volcano study frequently links to other fields, such as Petrology. His study in the field of Induced seismicity, Landslide and Domo is also linked to topics like Breakout and Host country.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Magma, Microlite are connected with Alkali feldspar and Phenocryst and other disciplines. Barry Voight focuses mostly in the field of Lava dome, narrowing it down to topics relating to Dome and, in certain cases, Andesite and Breccia. As a member of one scientific family, Barry Voight mostly works in the field of Pyroclastic rock, focusing on Volcanic rock and, on occasion, Slope stability and Fluid pressure.

His most cited work include:

  • A method for prediction of volcanic eruptions (375 citations)
  • Nature and mechanics of the Mount St Helens rockslide-avalanche of 18 May 1980 (307 citations)
  • A relation to describe rate-dependent material failure. (306 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Volcano, Seismology, Pyroclastic rock, Petrology and Magma. The concepts of his Volcano study are interwoven with issues in Dome and Debris. His study on Induced seismicity, Lateral eruption and Volcanic rock is often connected to Mount as part of broader study in Seismology.

In his study, Geochemistry is inextricably linked to Geomorphology, which falls within the broad field of Pyroclastic rock. In most of his Petrology studies, his work intersects topics such as Mineralogy. His work on Magma chamber as part of general Magma research is frequently linked to Electrical conduit, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Volcano (57.32%)
  • Seismology (51.22%)
  • Pyroclastic rock (24.39%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2021)?

  • Volcano (57.32%)
  • Seismology (51.22%)
  • Petrology (21.54%)

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

Barry Voight focuses on Volcano, Seismology, Petrology, Magma and Pyroclastic rock. His Volcano research integrates issues from Dome and Crust. His research in Seismology intersects with topics in Dike and Seismic tomography.

Barry Voight has included themes like Geodetic datum and Mineralogy in his Petrology study. His Magma course of study focuses on Tectonics and Induced seismicity, Fault, Geologic map and Geothermal gradient. His study in the fields of Pyroclastic surge under the domain of Pyroclastic rock overlaps with other disciplines such as Hazard.

Between 2008 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Chapter 1 An overview of the eruption of Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat from 2000 to 2010 (114 citations)
  • Modelling ground deformation caused by oscillating overpressure in a dyke conduit at Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat (64 citations)
  • Magma chamber properties from integrated seismic tomography and thermal modeling at Montserrat (60 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Paleontology
  • Basalt

His main research concerns Volcano, Seismology, Pyroclastic rock, Lateral eruption and Crust. His Volcano study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Dome and Geodetic datum. His Magma, Lava and Lava dome study in the realm of Seismology connects with subjects such as Gravity wave.

His research integrates issues of Igneous rock, Mafic and Volcanic rock in his study of Magma. His study in Lava is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Peléan eruption and Dense-rock equivalent. The study incorporates disciplines such as Hazard map and Soil science in addition to Pyroclastic rock.
