Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Geophysics
  • Plate tectonics
  • Mantle

Core–mantle boundary, Mantle, Geophysics, Ultra low velocity zone and Mineralogy are his primary areas of study. His studies deal with areas such as Mantle convection and Boundary layer as well as Core–mantle boundary. Edward J. Garnero has included themes like Plume and Hotspot in his Mantle study.

His Geophysics study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Discontinuity. His study in Ultra low velocity zone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Seismology and Seismometer. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Seismic wave, Post-perovskite and Outer core.

His most cited work include:

  • Seismic Evidence for Partial Melt at the Base of Earth's Mantle (468 citations)
  • The core–mantle boundary layer and deep Earth dynamics (343 citations)
  • Seismic detection of the lunar core. (309 citations)

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

Edward J. Garnero spends much of his time researching Mantle, Geophysics, Seismology, Core–mantle boundary and Petrology. His research in Mantle intersects with topics in Shear waves, Discontinuity, Seismic wave and Mineralogy. The Geophysics study combines topics in areas such as Convection, Cosmic microwave background, Mantle convection and Transverse isotropy.

He combines subjects such as Mantle wedge and Hotspot with his study of Mantle convection. Edward J. Garnero has researched Seismology in several fields, including Shear and Seismic tomography. Partial melting and Lithosphere is closely connected to Boundary layer in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Core–mantle boundary.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mantle (54.07%)
  • Geophysics (43.60%)
  • Seismology (38.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Geophysics (43.60%)
  • Seismology (38.95%)
  • Mantle (54.07%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geophysics, Seismology, Mantle, Core–mantle boundary and Mantle convection. His Geophysics research integrates issues from Lunar geologic timescale and Cosmic microwave background. His Seismology research includes themes of Seismic tomography and Convection.

His Mantle study incorporates themes from Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces, Petrology and Mantle flow. He performs multidisciplinary study in Core–mantle boundary and High velocity in his work. Edward J. Garnero works mostly in the field of Mantle convection, limiting it down to concerns involving Mantle wedge and, occasionally, Transition zone.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Continent-sized anomalous zones with low seismic velocity at the base of Earth's mantle (156 citations)
  • Chemical complexity of hotspots caused by cycling oceanic crust through mantle reservoirs (92 citations)
  • How Did Early Earth Become Our Modern World (39 citations)

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

  • Geophysics
  • Plate tectonics
  • Dynamics

Edward J. Garnero mainly focuses on Mantle, Petrology, Earth's internal heat budget, Mantle convection and Geophysics. His study in the fields of Partial melting, Core–mantle boundary and Peridotite under the domain of Mantle overlaps with other disciplines such as Conductivity. His work in the fields of Core–mantle boundary, such as Ultra low velocity zone, overlaps with other areas such as Global distribution.

As a member of one scientific family, Edward J. Garnero mostly works in the field of Petrology, focusing on Basalt and, on occasion, Oceanography, Convection and Mantle plume. Edward J. Garnero interconnects Structure of the Earth, Earth science and Hotspot in the investigation of issues within Earth's internal heat budget. His Geophysics research incorporates themes from Beijing Anomaly and Cosmic microwave background.
