Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Geometry
  • Paleontology

Christopher A.-L. Jackson mostly deals with Seismology, Fault, Rift, Paleontology and Sill. The various areas that Christopher A.-L. Jackson examines in his Seismology study include Cretaceous and Borehole. His work carried out in the field of Fault brings together such families of science as Half-graben, Extensional fault and Crust.

His research investigates the connection between Rift and topics such as Fault block that intersect with problems in Sequence stratigraphy. Sill is a primary field of his research addressed under Petrology. Christopher A.-L. Jackson has included themes like Sedimentary basin, Structural basin, Basement and Laccolith in his Petrology study.

His most cited work include:

  • A review of recent developments concerning the structure, mechanics and fluid flow properties of fault zones (707 citations)
  • Quantitative characterisation of deltaic and subaqueous clinoforms (134 citations)
  • Regional magma plumbing and emplacement mechanisms of the Faroe-Shetland Sill Complex: implications for magma transport and petroleum systems within sedimentary basins (118 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Petrology, Structural basin, Rift and Submarine pipeline. His Paleontology research focuses on Geomorphology and how it relates to Submarine. His Petrology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sedimentary basin, Volcanism, Overburden and Borehole.

His Structural basin research includes elements of Geochemistry and Sediment. Christopher A.-L. Jackson has researched Rift in several fields, including Fault block, Fault, Lithosphere and Graben. His Fault study improves the overall literature in Seismology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (36.63%)
  • Petrology (30.69%)
  • Structural basin (28.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Petrology (30.69%)
  • Structural basin (28.05%)
  • Paleontology (36.63%)

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

Christopher A.-L. Jackson mainly focuses on Petrology, Structural basin, Paleontology, Submarine pipeline and Fault. His study in Petrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Overburden, Magma, Deformation and Borehole. His study looks at the intersection of Submarine pipeline and topics like Headwall with Seafloor spreading.

His Fault research integrates issues from Rift and Scaling. His work in Rift covers topics such as Cretaceous which are related to areas like Lithosphere and Geometry. His Sedimentary rock research incorporates elements of Plate tectonics and Continental crust.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Barriers to fieldwork in undergraduate geoscience degrees (15 citations)
  • Base-salt relief controls salt-tectonic structural style, São Paulo Plateau, Santos Basin, Brazil (10 citations)
  • The competition for salt and kinematic interactions between minibasins during density-driven subsidence: observations from numerical models (8 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Geometry
  • Paleontology

Christopher A.-L. Jackson spends much of his time researching Petrology, Structural basin, Salt tectonics, Paleontology and Diapir. His work deals with themes such as Volcanism, Overburden and Hydrocarbon exploration, which intersect with Petrology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Outcrop and Submarine pipeline.

His Salt tectonics study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary rock and Geochemistry. His Diapir research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sedimentary basin and Subsidence. The various areas that Christopher A.-L. Jackson examines in his Sedimentary depositional environment study include Fault, Fault scarp and Rift.
