Friedhelm von Blanckenburg has researched Denudation in several fields, including Climate change and Weathering.
His study in Isotope is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fractionation, Isotopic composition, Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and Isotope analysis.
As a member of one scientific family, Friedhelm von Blanckenburg mostly works in the field of Geochemistry, focusing on Equilibrium fractionation and, on occasion, Mineralogy and Continental crust.
His most cited work include:
- Slab breakoff: A model of lithosphere detachment and its test in the magmatism and deformation of collisional orogens (1121 citations)
- Determination of the 10Be half-life by multicollector ICP-MS and liquid scintillation counting (590 citations)
- Slab breakoff: A model for syncollisional magmatism and tectonics in the Alps (549 citations)
