What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Volcano
- Geophysics
His primary areas of study are Seismology, Rift, Paleontology, Crust and Continental crust.
His work carried out in the field of Seismology brings together such families of science as Amplitude, Triple junction and Mineralogy.
Tectonics covers Dale S. Sawyer research in Rift.
He studies Oceanic crust which is a part of Paleontology.
His studies in Crust integrate themes in fields like Petrology and Graben.
As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Continental crust, focusing on Lithosphere and, on occasion, Plate tectonics and Geodynamics.
His most cited work include:
- How preexisting weaknesses control the style of continental breakup (192 citations)
- Tectonosedimentary evolution of the deep Iberia‐Newfoundland margins: Evidence for a complex breakup history (187 citations)
- Breakup of the Newfoundland Iberia rift (174 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Dale S. Sawyer focuses on Seismology, Paleontology, Rift, Crust and Continental crust.
He works mostly in the field of Seismology, limiting it down to topics relating to Seafloor spreading and, in certain cases, Magnetic anomaly.
His work on Sedimentary rock and Sedimentary basin as part of general Paleontology research is frequently linked to Margin, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His study on Passive margin and Volcanic passive margin is often connected to Breakup as part of broader study in Rift.
His Crust research includes elements of Lithosphere, Mantle convection and Petrology.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Continental margin, Plate tectonics and Oceanic crust.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (38.19%)
- Paleontology (29.17%)
- Rift (22.22%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?
- Seismology (38.19%)
- Margin (15.97%)
- Detachment fault (4.86%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Dale S. Sawyer mainly investigates Seismology, Margin, Detachment fault, Reflector and Tectonophysics.
Dale S. Sawyer has included themes like Transition zone, Mantle and Crust in his Seismology study.
Continental crust is the focus of his Mantle research.
His Continental crust research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Seafloor spreading and Oceanic crust.
He undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Detachment fault and Rift in his work.
His research investigates the link between Rift and topics such as Fault that cross with problems in Azimuth and Passive margin.
Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Fault-controlled hydration of the upper mantle during continental rifting (44 citations)
- Continental hyperextension, mantle exhumation and thin oceanic crust at the continent-ocean transition, West Iberia: new insights from wide-angle seismic (28 citations)
- 3D development of detachment faulting during continental breakup (19 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Plate tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Volcano
His primary areas of study are Seismology, Mantle, Rift, Detachment fault and Transition zone.
His Mantle study frequently links to other fields, such as Crust.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Geodynamics, Subduction, Mantle convection and Hotspot in addition to Crust.
Dale S. Sawyer has researched Rift in several fields, including Fault slip, Fault block, Fault and Azimuth.
Dale S. Sawyer performs multidisciplinary study in Detachment fault and Continental crust in his work.
His work deals with themes such as Seafloor spreading, Mid-ocean ridge and Oceanic crust, which intersect with Continental crust.
