Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Tectonics
  • Plate tectonics

Bernhard Fügenschuh focuses on Tectonics, Paleontology, Seismology, Subduction and Sinistral and dextral. The Tectonics study combines topics in areas such as Series and Cretaceous. His is involved in several facets of Paleontology study, as is seen by his studies on Fission track dating, Nappe, Penninic and Metamorphism.

He studies Seismology, focusing on Structural geology in particular. His Subduction research includes elements of Lithosphere and Plate tectonics. Many of his research projects under Lithosphere are closely connected to Longitude with Longitude, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His most cited work include:

  • Tectonic map and overall architecture of the Alpine orogen (756 citations)
  • The Alpine-Carpathian-Dinaridic orogenic system: correlation and evolution of tectonic units (716 citations)
  • A map-view restoration of the Alpine-Carpathian-Dinaridic system for the Early Miocene (184 citations)

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

Paleontology, Nappe, Tectonics, Seismology and Fission track dating are his primary areas of study. His work in Cretaceous, Paleogene, Subduction, Basement and Metamorphism is related to Paleontology. His Subduction study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Orogeny, Lithosphere and Plate tectonics.

His research in Nappe intersects with topics in Sedimentary rock, Flysch, Lineation and Ophiolite. His Foreland basin study in the realm of Tectonics connects with subjects such as Clockwise. In general Seismology, his work in Sinistral and dextral, Fault, Structural geology and Normal fault is often linked to Transect linking many areas of study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (64.84%)
  • Nappe (34.07%)
  • Tectonics (30.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Paleontology (64.84%)
  • Nappe (34.07%)
  • Geochemistry (18.68%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Nappe, Geochemistry, Cretaceous and Fission track dating. Bernhard Fügenschuh focuses mostly in the field of Paleontology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Geomorphology and, in certain cases, Structural geology. His Nappe study incorporates themes from Sedimentary depositional environment, Basement, Ophiolite and Calcite.

His work investigates the relationship between Geochemistry and topics such as Meteoric water that intersect with problems in K–Ar dating, Mineralogy and Cataclastic rock. His study on Fission track dating is covered under Zircon. His study looks at the relationship between Molasse and topics such as Penninic, which overlap with Graben.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Paleogene palaeogeography and basin evolution of the Western Carpathians, Northern Pannonian domain and adjoining areas (58 citations)
  • Tectonic units of the Alpine collision zone between Eastern Alps and western Turkey (49 citations)
  • Geometry, amount, and sequence of thrusting in the Subalpine Molasse of western Austria and southern Germany, European Alps (42 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Tectonics
  • Plate tectonics

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Nappe, Ophiolite, Cretaceous and Basement. His study in Paleontology concentrates on Neogene, Subduction, Zircon, Collision zone and Lineation. His study focuses on the intersection of Neogene and fields such as Paleogene with connections in the field of Flysch.

He mostly deals with Fission track dating in his studies of Zircon. His Collision zone research incorporates themes from Sedimentary basin, Suture, Orogeny and Obduction. Bernhard Fügenschuh interconnects Tectonic phase and Geochronology in the investigation of issues within Lineation.
