Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Basalt
  • Ecology

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Lost City Hydrothermal Field, Hydrothermal circulation, Geochemistry, Hydrothermal vent and Ultramafic rock. Her research in Lost City Hydrothermal Field intersects with topics in Mineralogy and Peridotite. Her Peridotite research focuses on Earth science and how it connects with Mid-ocean ridge, Chemosynthesis, Hydrosphere, Asthenosphere and Volcano.

In her works, Deborah S. Kelley performs multidisciplinary study on Hydrothermal circulation and Autotroph. Her Geochemistry study incorporates themes from Paleontology, Mid-Atlantic Ridge and Oceanic crust. Her Hydrothermal vent study combines topics in areas such as Volcanism and Biosphere.

Her most cited work include:

  • A Serpentinite-Hosted Ecosystem: The Lost City Hydrothermal Field (806 citations)
  • An off-axis hydrothermal vent field near the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 30° N (793 citations)
  • Hydrothermal vents and the origin of life (772 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Geochemistry, Hydrothermal circulation, Lost City Hydrothermal Field, Seafloor spreading and Oceanography. Her Geochemistry research incorporates themes from Fluid inclusions, Ridge and Mineralogy. Her Hydrothermal vent study, which is part of a larger body of work in Hydrothermal circulation, is frequently linked to Autotroph, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Lost City Hydrothermal Field and Peridotite are frequently intertwined in her study. Her Seafloor spreading research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Seismology and Petroleum seep. Deborah S. Kelley combines subjects such as Submarine eruption and Methane with her study of Oceanography.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (40.41%)
  • Hydrothermal circulation (29.45%)
  • Lost City Hydrothermal Field (17.81%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Oceanography (15.07%)
  • Seafloor spreading (15.75%)
  • Geochemistry (40.41%)

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

Deborah S. Kelley mostly deals with Oceanography, Seafloor spreading, Geochemistry, Seismology and Ocean Observatories Initiative. Her work in the fields of Oceanography, such as Water column, overlaps with other areas such as Hydrate Ridge, Clathrate hydrate and Environmental ethics. Her Seafloor spreading study also includes

  • Petroleum seep that intertwine with fields like Geomorphology,
  • Volcanism that intertwine with fields like Dike, Volcanology, Carbon dioxide and Oceanic crust.

Her Geochemistry research integrates issues from Hydrothermal circulation and Hydrothermal vent. Her studies in Hydrothermal circulation integrate themes in fields like Mineralogy and Chimney. Deborah S. Kelley focuses mostly in the field of Lost City Hydrothermal Field, narrowing it down to matters related to Metamorphic rock and, in some cases, Astrobiology.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Global Observing Needs in the Deep Ocean (54 citations)
  • Voluminous eruption from a zoned magma body after an increase in supply rate at Axial Seamount (34 citations)
  • The Ocean Observatories Initiative (30 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Basalt
  • Ecology

Her primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Oceanography, Seafloor spreading, Hydrothermal vent and Ocean Observatories Initiative. Her study on Lost City Hydrothermal Field and Lava is often connected to Biogeosciences and Earth as part of broader study in Geochemistry. Her work on Water column as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Hydrate Ridge, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her Seafloor spreading study deals with Submarine intersecting with Volcanism, Dike, Mantle and Oceanic crust. To a larger extent, Deborah S. Kelley studies Hydrothermal circulation with the aim of understanding Hydrothermal vent. In her study, Series and Chimney is inextricably linked to Mineralogy, which falls within the broad field of Hydrothermal circulation.
