What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Mineral
- Sedimentary rock
- Ecology
His primary areas of investigation include Mineralogy, Weathering, Geochemistry, Quartz and Organic matter.
Saprolite is closely connected to Parent rock in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Mineralogy.
His study in Weathering is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biogenic silica, Clay minerals and Soil production function.
He combines subjects such as Volcano, Soil water, Horizon, Trachyte and Biogeochemical cycle with his study of Biogenic silica.
His work on Supergene as part of general Geochemistry research is frequently linked to Spallation, bridging the gap between disciplines.
In his work, Humus, Soil organic matter and Pedogenesis is strongly intertwined with Soil horizon, which is a subfield of Organic matter.
His most cited work include:
- Plant impact on the biogeochemical cycle of silicon and related weathering processes (377 citations)
- Biogenic silica storage in soils (150 citations)
- In situ produced 10Be measurements at great depths: implications for production rates by fast muons (143 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Fabrice Colin focuses on Weathering, Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Saprolite and Quartz.
In his research on the topic of Weathering, Schist is strongly related with Gneiss.
His biological study deals with issues like Supergene, which deal with fields such as Clay minerals.
His research in Geochemistry intersects with topics in Mineralization, Carbonate and Erosion.
The Saprolite study combines topics in areas such as Duricrust, Calcite and Clastic rock.
His study in the field of Vein also crosses realms of Cosmogenic nuclide.
