2022 - Research.com Earth Science in Japan Leader Award
2015 - Geochemistry Fellow Honor, Geochemical Society and the European Association of Geochemistry
2006 - Fellow of American Geophysical Union (AGU)
His primary areas of study are Mineralogy, Mantle, Transition zone, Analytical chemistry and Thermodynamics. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Oxygen and Silicate. His Mantle research integrates issues from Stishovite and Solidus.
Eiji Ohtani interconnects Petrology and Subduction, Mantle wedge in the investigation of issues within Transition zone. His Analytical chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Crystallography, Post-perovskite, Synchrotron radiation, Phase boundary and Silicate perovskite. His Thermodynamics research integrates issues from Periclase, Albite, Powder diffraction and Aluminosilicate.
Eiji Ohtani focuses on Mineralogy, Analytical chemistry, Mantle, Geochemistry and Thermodynamics. Eiji Ohtani has researched Mineralogy in several fields, including Chondrite, Silicate and Stishovite. His work deals with themes such as Hydrogen, Crystallography, X-ray, Phase and Diamond anvil cell, which intersect with Analytical chemistry.
His Crystallography research incorporates elements of X-ray crystallography and Diffraction. His Mantle research includes themes of Subduction, Petrology and Transition zone. The concepts of his Transition zone study are interwoven with issues in Slab and Mantle wedge.
His main research concerns Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Analytical chemistry, Mantle and Meteorite. His study in Mineralogy focuses on Majorite in particular. His studies examine the connections between Geochemistry and genetics, as well as such issues in Chondrite, with regards to Sulfide.
His studies in Analytical chemistry integrate themes in fields like Diamond anvil cell, Hydrogen and Phase. His study explores the link between Mantle and topics such as Transition zone that cross with problems in Petrology. In his study, Thermodynamics is strongly linked to Liquidus, which falls under the umbrella field of Silicate.
