Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Gondwana, Paleozoic, Orocline and Terrane. His work is connected to Ordovician, Basement, Zircon, Continental margin and Subduction, as a part of Paleontology. His Zircon study improves the overall literature in Geochemistry.

The various areas that Gabriel Gutiérrez-Alonso examines in his Gondwana study include Suture and Provenance. His Paleozoic study combines topics in areas such as Orogeny and Passive margin. His work carried out in the field of Orocline brings together such families of science as Paleocurrent, Lithosphere, Delamination and Mantle.

His most cited work include:

  • Evolution of the Rheic Ocean (412 citations)
  • Origin of the Rheic Ocean: rifting along a Neoproterozoic suture? (246 citations)
  • Neoproterozoic-early Palaeozoic tectonostratigraphy and palaeogeography of the peri-Gondwanan terranes: Amazonian v. West African connections (205 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Geochemistry, Orocline, Gondwana and Paleozoic. His work in Zircon, Ordovician, Devonian, Provenance and Orogeny is related to Paleontology. Gabriel Gutiérrez-Alonso studied Zircon and Basement that intersect with Craton.

His Orocline study incorporates themes from Paleomagnetism, Shear zone and Lithosphere. His Gondwana research includes themes of Suture, Passive margin, Rift, Supercontinent and Terrane. His study in the fields of Laurentia under the domain of Paleozoic overlaps with other disciplines such as Late Devonian extinction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (67.86%)
  • Geochemistry (38.57%)
  • Orocline (37.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Paleontology (67.86%)
  • Geochemistry (38.57%)
  • Zircon (29.29%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Geochemistry, Zircon, Paleozoic and Orocline. His work in the fields of Paleontology, such as Devonian, Volcano and Biostratigraphy, intersects with other areas such as Tonstein and Bedding. His Geochemistry research focuses on Terrane and how it relates to Siliciclastic and Laurentia.

His research in Zircon intersects with topics in Provenance, Conodont and Geochronology. He focuses mostly in the field of Orocline, narrowing it down to topics relating to Orogeny and, in certain cases, Paleomagnetism and Magmatism. His study in Paleomagnetism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Supercontinent, Gondwana and Crust.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Birth and demise of the Rheic Ocean magmatic arc(s): Combined U–Pb and Hf isotope analyses in detrital zircon from SW Iberia siliciclastic strata (28 citations)
  • Birth and demise of the Rheic Ocean magmatic arc(s): Combined U–Pb and Hf isotope analyses in detrital zircon from SW Iberia siliciclastic strata (28 citations)
  • Crustal melting and recycling: geochronology and sources of Variscan syn-kinematic anatectic granitoids of the Tormes Dome (Central Iberian Zone). A U–Pb LA-ICP-MS study (15 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

Gabriel Gutiérrez-Alonso mainly investigates Geochemistry, Paleontology, Paleozoic, Zircon and Crust. His study in Geochronology and Monazite is carried out as part of his studies in Geochemistry. His study on Paleomagnetism, Orogeny and Orocline is often connected to Cenozoic and Mesozoic as part of broader study in Paleontology.

His Paleozoic study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Siliciclastic, Devonian, Provenance and Terrane. His studies in Zircon integrate themes in fields like Migmatite, Crustal recycling, Petrology, Pluton and Archean. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mafic and Mantle.
