Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Erosion
  • Sedimentary rock

Daniel Garcia-Castellanos mainly investigates Geomorphology, Lithosphere, Foreland basin, Structural basin and Sedimentary basin. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Tectonics and Isostasy. His Tectonics research focuses on Salinity and how it relates to Mediterranean sea.

The Lithosphere study combines topics in areas such as Intraplate earthquake, Geophysics and Plate tectonics. He interconnects Lithospheric flexure and Sedimentary budget in the investigation of issues within Foreland basin. His work investigates the relationship between Fluvial and topics such as Mediterranean climate that intersect with problems in Sea level.

His most cited work include:

  • Catastrophic flood of the Mediterranean after the Messinian salinity crisis (298 citations)
  • Interplay between tectonics, climate, and fluvial transport during the Cenozoic evolution of the Ebro Basin (NE Iberia) (206 citations)
  • Lithospheric memory, state of stress and rheology: neotectonic controls on Europe's intraplate continental topography. (163 citations)

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

His main research concerns Lithosphere, Geomorphology, Paleontology, Structural basin and Tectonics. His studies deal with areas such as Petrology and Geophysics, Mantle as well as Lithosphere. His research integrates issues of Mediterranean climate and Isostasy in his study of Geomorphology.

His work in Paleontology tackles topics such as Mediterranean sea which are related to areas like Escarpment, Evaporite, Flood myth and Oceanography. His Structural basin research incorporates themes from Sedimentary rock and Sea level. His Tectonics research integrates issues from Neogene and Earth science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Lithosphere (29.73%)
  • Geomorphology (29.05%)
  • Paleontology (25.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Paleontology (25.00%)
  • Mediterranean sea (8.11%)
  • Lithosphere (29.73%)

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

Paleontology, Mediterranean sea, Lithosphere, Fluvial and Structural basin are his primary areas of study. His Cenozoic, Pleistocene and Accretion study, which is part of a larger body of work in Paleontology, is frequently linked to Delta, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Mediterranean sea study also includes

  • Escarpment and related Canyon and Oceanography,
  • Evaporite and related Promontory and Flood myth.

His study on Lithosphere is covered under Seismology. He combines subjects such as Terrace and Drainage with his study of Fluvial. His Structural basin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mediterranean climate, Stratigraphy and Sea level.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Drainage network dynamics and knickpoint evolution in the Ebro and Duero basins: From endorheism to exorheism (19 citations)
  • Geomorphic evolution of the Malta Escarpment and implications for the Messinian evaporative drawdown in the eastern Mediterranean Sea (9 citations)
  • Deep Seated Density Anomalies Across the Iberia-Africa Plate Boundary and Its Topographic Response (8 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Erosion

Daniel Garcia-Castellanos mainly focuses on Paleontology, Mediterranean sea, Structural basin, Pleistocene and Escarpment. His Paleontology study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Floodplain. The various areas that he examines in his Mediterranean sea study include Geophysics, Sedimentary rock, Evaporite, Flood myth and Canyon.

His Sedimentary rock research includes elements of Bedrock, Stratigraphy and Sea level. His Structural basin study frequently involves adjacent topics like Provenance. His Fluvial research includes themes of Drainage basin, Late Miocene, Terrace and Headward erosion.
