Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • China
  • Oxygen

Clive Oppenheimer focuses on Volcano, Plume, Mineralogy, Magma and Lava. His Volcano research integrates issues from Impact crater, Atmospheric sciences and Earth science. His study in Plume is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sulfur dioxide, Flux and Petrology.

Clive Oppenheimer works mostly in the field of Mineralogy, limiting it down to topics relating to Atmospheric chemistry and, in certain cases, Point source, Stratosphere and Water vapor, as a part of the same area of interest. The various areas that Clive Oppenheimer examines in his Magma study include Amplitude, Induced seismicity, Basalt and Tilt. His research investigates the connection between Lava and topics such as Erebus that intersect with issues in Phonolite.

His most cited work include:

  • The size and frequency of the largest explosive eruptions on Earth (322 citations)
  • A miniaturised ultraviolet spectrometer for remote sensing of SO2 fluxes: a new tool for volcano surveillance (301 citations)
  • The 2010 explosive eruption of Java's Merapi volcano—A ‘100-year’ event (261 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Volcano, Lava, Mineralogy, Plume and Earth science. The concepts of his Volcano study are interwoven with issues in Impact crater and Atmospheric sciences. His Lava research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Petrology, Remote sensing, Geophysics and Geomorphology.

His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fumarole, Volcanic Gases, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Flux. Many of his studies on Plume involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Aerosol. His Earth science research includes elements of Volcanism, Atmosphere and Caldera.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Volcano (73.89%)
  • Lava (26.37%)
  • Mineralogy (17.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Volcano (73.89%)
  • Magma (14.62%)
  • Earth science (16.71%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Volcano, Magma, Earth science, Geochemistry and Lava. His work carried out in the field of Volcano brings together such families of science as Volcanism and Holocene. As a part of the same scientific study, Clive Oppenheimer usually deals with the Magma, concentrating on Petrology and frequently concerns with Gas composition.

The Earth science study combines topics in areas such as Atmosphere and Crater lake. His Lava research includes themes of Tectonics and Mafic. His work focuses on many connections between Tephra and other disciplines, such as Explosive eruption, that overlap with his field of interest in Paleoecology, East African Rift and Pleistocene.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Climate response to the Samalas volcanic eruption in 1257 revealed by proxy records (65 citations)
  • Multi-proxy dating the ‘Millennium Eruption’ of Changbaishan to late 946 CE (64 citations)
  • The impact of degassing on the oxidation state of basaltic magmas: A case study of Kīlauea volcano (56 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • China
  • Oxygen

Clive Oppenheimer spends much of his time researching Volcano, Magma, Vulcanian eruption, Earth science and Lava. His studies in Volcano integrate themes in fields like Ice core and Holocene. His work deals with themes such as Volcanism, Rift, Petrology and Interferometric synthetic aperture radar, which intersect with Magma.

His Vulcanian eruption study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Eruption column, Northern Hemisphere, Atmospheric sciences, Troposphere and Air quality index. His Earth science study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Atmosphere, Tectonics, Lead and Earth observation. His Lava study incorporates themes from Erebus, Olivine, Kaersutite, Plagioclase and Mafic.
