Erik E. Scherer mainly investigates Geochemistry, Zircon, Geochronology, Metamorphic rock and Oceanic crust.
In general Geochemistry, his work in Metamorphism and Crust is often linked to Metamorphic facies linking many areas of study.
His work blends Zircon and Hafnium studies together.
Erik E. Scherer has researched Geochronology in several fields, including Radiogenic nuclide, Closure temperature and Archean.
His Archean research includes themes of Radioactive decay and Mineralogy.
His research integrates issues of Blueschist, Exponential decay and Igneous rock in his study of Metamorphic rock.
His most cited work include:
- Calibration of the lutetium-hafnium clock. (1823 citations)
- Separation of high field strength elements (Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf) and Lu from rock samples for MC‐ICPMS measurements (397 citations)
- Lu–hf garnet geochronology: closure temperature relative to the Sm–Nd system and the effects of trace mineral inclusions (308 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Zircon, Geochronology, Eclogite and Metamorphic rock.
In the subject of general Geochemistry, his work in Metamorphism, Crust, Basalt and Mantle is often linked to Metamorphic facies, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His study in Zircon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Eucrite, Gneiss and Mineralogy.
He combines subjects such as Isotope and Analytical chemistry with his study of Mineralogy.
His work on Closure temperature expands to the thematically related Geochronology.
In his study, Eclogitization is inextricably linked to Trace element, which falls within the broad field of Eclogite.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (63.83%)
- Zircon (22.34%)
- Geochronology (20.21%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?
- Geochemistry (63.83%)
- Geochronology (20.21%)
- Zircon (22.34%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Geochemistry, Geochronology, Zircon, Acasta Gneiss and Meteorite.
His work focuses on many connections between Geochemistry and other disciplines, such as Chronology, that overlap with his field of interest in Mineralogy.
His research investigates the connection with Mineralogy and areas like Isotope which intersect with concerns in Analytical chemistry.
Geochronology connects with themes related to Earth science in his study.
The various areas that Erik E. Scherer examines in his Zircon study include Planetesimal, Basalt, Iron meteorite and Asteroid.
His Metamorphic rock study incorporates themes from Metamorphism and Eclogite.
Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- A rapid and efficient ion-exchange chromatography for Lu–Hf, Sm–Nd, and Rb–Sr geochronology and the routine isotope analysis of sub-ng amounts of Hf by MC-ICP-MS (34 citations)
- Thermal evolution of an ancient subduction interface revealed by Lu–Hf garnet geochronology, Halilbağı Complex (Anatolia) (23 citations)
- Prolonged magmatism on 4 Vesta inferred from Hf–W analyses of eucrite zircon (22 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Igneous rock
- Basalt
- Mineral
Geochemistry, Geochronology, Eclogite, Metamorphic rock and Meteorite are his primary areas of study.
His study in the field of Migmatite and Radiometric dating is also linked to topics like Terrane, Metamorphic petrology and Granulite.
His Geochronology study combines topics in areas such as Apatite and Ion chromatography.
His studies deal with areas such as Metamorphism, Mafic and Underplating as well as Eclogite.
Metamorphic rock is closely attributed to Isochron dating in his research.
His work on Meteorite is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Zircon.
