The fields of study he is best known for:
C. Geoffrey Wheat mainly focuses on Seawater, Hydrothermal circulation, Geochemistry, Oceanic crust and Basalt.
His Seawater study which covers Mid-ocean ridge that intersects with Oceanography and Ridge.
His Hydrothermal circulation study also includes fields such as
- Sedimentary rock and Environmental chemistry most often made with reference to Mineralogy,
- Biogeochemical cycle together with Anoxic waters.
He combines subjects such as Sediment, Alkalinity and Pore water pressure with his study of Geochemistry.
His Oceanic crust research includes elements of Seafloor spreading and Crust.
His research investigates the connection between Crust and topics such as Earth science that intersect with issues in Petrology, Oceanic basin and Ecology.
His most cited work include:
- HYDROTHERMAL CIRCULATION THROUGH MID-OCEAN RIDGE FLANKS : FLUXES OF HEAT AND MAGNESIUM (246 citations)
- Composition of pore and spring waters from Baby Bare: global implications of geochemical fluxes from a ridge flank hydrothermal system (160 citations)
- Phosphate removal by oceanic hydrothermal processes: An update of the phosphorus budget in the oceans (135 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Geochemistry, Hydrothermal circulation, Seawater, Oceanic crust and Basalt are his primary areas of study.
His studies deal with areas such as Subduction and Pore water pressure as well as Geochemistry.
His Hydrothermal circulation research integrates issues from Sediment, Carbon cycle, Mineralogy, Ridge and Environmental chemistry.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Authigenic, Isotope fractionation, Mid-ocean ridge and Weathering in addition to Seawater.
His studies examine the connections between Oceanic crust and genetics, as well as such issues in Igneous rock, with regards to Tectonics.
His Basalt study combines topics in areas such as Deep sea, Seafloor spreading and Crust.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (40.79%)
- Hydrothermal circulation (39.47%)
- Seawater (32.89%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hydrothermal circulation, Geochemistry, Outcrop, Ridge and Anoxic waters.
His Hydrothermal circulation study incorporates themes from Sediment, Weathering, Carbon cycle, Oceanic crust and Isotope fractionation.
His study explores the link between Carbon cycle and topics such as Dolomite that cross with problems in Seawater.
As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Oceanic crust, concentrating on International Ocean Discovery Program and intersecting with Petrology.
When carried out as part of a general Geochemistry research project, his work on Volcano and Mid-ocean ridge is frequently linked to work in Chimney, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
The Outcrop study which covers Basalt that intersects with Zoology, Crust and Lithosphere.
Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- A dynamic microbial community with high functional redundancy inhabits the cold, oxic subseafloor aquifer (75 citations)
- Cool seafloor hydrothermal springs reveal global geochemical fluxes (37 citations)
- Discovery of Hydrothermal Vent Fields on Alarcón Rise and in Southern Pescadero Basin, Gulf of California (15 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
