Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Volcano
  • Plate tectonics

His main research concerns Geochemistry, Basalt, Oceanic crust, Peridotite and Mantle. His Geochemistry research focuses on Olivine in particular. His Basalt study incorporates themes from Crust, Seamount, Greenschist, Ophiolite and Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

The concepts of his Crust study are interwoven with issues in Tectonic uplift, Fracture zone, Rift and Fracture. His work in Oceanic crust is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Petrology. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Mantle, narrowing it down to issues related to the Subduction, and often Passive margin.

His most cited work include:

  • ODP Leg 107 in the Tyrrhenian Sea: Insights into passive margin and back-arc basin evolution (370 citations)
  • Mobility of manganese in diagenesis of deep-sea sediments☆ (318 citations)
  • Classification and genesis of submarine iron-manganese deposits (285 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Mantle, Paleontology, Basalt and Oceanic crust. His studies deal with areas such as Plagioclase and Mid-Atlantic Ridge as well as Geochemistry. Enrico Bonatti has included themes like Subduction, Lithosphere, Mantle wedge and Petrology in his Mantle study.

Enrico Bonatti studied Paleontology and Fracture zone that intersect with Ridge and Sea level. He combines subjects such as Volcano, Lava, Earth science, Hydrothermal circulation and Seamount with his study of Basalt. His Oceanic crust research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Seafloor spreading, Ophiolite and Continental crust, Crust.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (39.70%)
  • Mantle (24.62%)
  • Paleontology (23.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (39.70%)
  • Mantle (24.62%)
  • Paleontology (23.12%)

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

Enrico Bonatti spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Mantle, Paleontology, Lithosphere and Mid-Atlantic Ridge. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Silicate and Plankton. His research in the fields of Peridotite overlaps with other disciplines such as Temporal heterogeneity.

His work in Peridotite addresses issues such as Subduction, which are connected to fields such as Diapir. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Transform fault, Fracture zone, Mid-ocean ridge and Partial melting. His research investigates the connection between Crust and topics such as Oceanic crust that intersect with problems in Seafloor spreading and Magma chamber.

Between 2008 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Birth of an ocean in the Red Sea: Initial pangs (74 citations)
  • Mediterranean megaturbidite triggered by the AD 365 Crete earthquake and tsunami (51 citations)
  • Serpentinization of mantle peridotites along an uplifted lithospheric section, Mid Atlantic Ridge at 11° N (42 citations)

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

  • Basalt
  • Volcano
  • Plate tectonics

Enrico Bonatti mainly investigates Mantle, Geochemistry, Basalt, Oceanic crust and Lithosphere. His research on Mantle focuses in particular on Peridotite. He focuses mostly in the field of Peridotite, narrowing it down to topics relating to Subduction and, in certain cases, Diapir and Ridge.

His research integrates issues of Mid-Atlantic Ridge and Silicate in his study of Geochemistry. His Oceanic crust research includes themes of Seafloor spreading and Continental crust. His Seafloor spreading research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Rift and Asthenosphere.
