His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Caldera, Magma chamber, Peralkaline rock and Silicic.
His work deals with themes such as Hornblende, Petrology and Geomorphology, which intersect with Geochemistry.
His research investigates the link between Caldera and topics such as Pyroclastic rock that cross with problems in Fiamme and Pumice.
His research integrates issues of Rhyolite and Lava in his study of Magma chamber.
The Peralkaline rock study which covers Phenocryst that intersects with Mineralogy and Sanidine.
Gail A. Mahood combines subjects such as Intermediate composition, Diorite, Mafic, Pluton and Gabbro with his study of Silicic.
His most cited work include:
- Large partition coefficients for trace elements in high-silica rhyolites (595 citations)
- Field, chemical, and physical constraints on mafic-felsic magma interaction in the Lamarck Granodiorite, Sierra Nevada, California (307 citations)
- Synextensional magmatism in the Basin and Range Province; A case study from the eastern Great Basin (290 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Gail A. Mahood mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Caldera, Silicic, Rhyolite and Magma.
Magma chamber, Basalt, Volcano, Phenocryst and Volcanic rock are subfields of Geochemistry in which his conducts study.
His work in Magma chamber covers topics such as Fractional crystallization which are related to areas like Igneous rock and Partial melting.
His Caldera study combines topics in areas such as Lava, Explosive eruption, Continental crust, Pumice and Geomorphology.
His Silicic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Flood basalt and Petrology, Mafic.
His Rhyolite research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Andesite and Feldspar.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (95.52%)
- Caldera (52.24%)
- Silicic (38.81%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

- Volcano (26.87%)
- Caldera (52.24%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Volcano, Caldera, Flood basalt and Rhyolite.
Gail A. Mahood studies Geochemistry, focusing on Volcanology in particular.
His study in Volcanology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mineralogy and Magma.
His Caldera research integrates issues from Dike swarm and Geologic map.
His Flood basalt research incorporates elements of Phreatomagmatic eruption and Silicic.
His research in Silicic intersects with topics in Dike and Volcanism.
Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- Lithium enrichment in intracontinental rhyolite magmas leads to Li deposits in caldera basins. (27 citations)
- Geology of the High Rock caldera complex, northwest Nevada, and implications for intense rhyolitic volcanism associated with flood basalt magmatism and the initiation of the Snake River Plain–Yellowstone trend (19 citations)
- Using 40Ar/39Ar ages of intercalated silicic tuffs to date flood basalts: Precise ages for Steens Basalt Member of the Columbia River Basalt Group (15 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Basalt
- Volcano
- Igneous rock
Rhyolite, Geochemistry, Silicic, Basalt and Flood basalt are his primary areas of study.
His work in the fields of Geochemistry, such as Caldera, Felsic and Phreatomagmatic eruption, overlaps with other areas such as Extinction event.
He interconnects Hydrothermal circulation, Melt inclusions, Continental crust and Weathering in the investigation of issues within Felsic.
Many of his studies on Phreatomagmatic eruption involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Dike.
His Extinction event study spans across into subjects like Feldspar and Volcanism.
His study on Silicic is covered under Volcano.
