Georg F. Zellmer

Massey University

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Volcano
  • Igneous rock

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Igneous differentiation, Mafic, Magma and Phenocryst. His study in Fractional crystallization, Igneous rock, Zircon, Rhyolite and Andesite is carried out as part of his studies in Geochemistry. In Igneous differentiation, Georg F. Zellmer works on issues like Volcanic arc, which are connected to Mantle wedge and Partial melting.

His study connects Basalt and Mafic. Georg F. Zellmer focuses mostly in the field of Magma, narrowing it down to topics relating to Trace element and, in certain cases, Mineralogy, Anorthite, Radiometric dating and Chronometry. His study looks at the intersection of Phenocryst and topics like Magma chamber with Phonolite.

His most cited work include:

  • Time Scales of Crystal Fractionation in Magma Chambers—Integrating Physical, Isotopic and Geochemical Perspectives (165 citations)
  • Time Scales of Crystal Fractionation in Magma Chambers—Integrating Physical, Isotopic and Geochemical Perspectives (165 citations)
  • Submarine hydrothermal activity and gold-rich mineralization at Brothers Volcano, Kermadec Arc, New Zealand (143 citations)

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

Georg F. Zellmer spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Volcano, Magma, Basalt and Petrology. His study in Geochemistry focuses on Mafic, Andesites, Mantle, Igneous differentiation and Fractional crystallization. His study in the field of Pyroclastic rock is also linked to topics like Mineral.

His study on Magma also encompasses disciplines like

  • Phenocryst, which have a strong connection to Magma chamber,

  • Lava which intersects with area such as Explosive eruption. The various areas that Georg F. Zellmer examines in his Basalt study include Crystal and Olivine. His Petrology research also works with subjects such as

  • Volcanic arc that intertwine with fields like Underplating, Adakite and Geophysics,

  • Mantle wedge that intertwine with fields like Partial melting.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (86.67%)
  • Volcano (34.81%)
  • Magma (28.15%)

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

  • Geochemistry (86.67%)
  • Volcano (34.81%)
  • Petrology (23.70%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Volcano, Petrology, Magma and Basalt. His work on Geochemistry is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Isotope analysis. The concepts of his Volcano study are interwoven with issues in Sedimentology, Earth science and Petrogenesis.

His work deals with themes such as Strombolian eruption, Vulcanian eruption and Volcanology, which intersect with Petrology. His study in Igneous rock is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Picrite basalt, Phenocryst and Crust. Georg F. Zellmer does research in Mafic, focusing on Igneous differentiation specifically.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Multiple mantle sources of continental magmatism: insights from “high-Ti” picrites of Karoo and other large igneous provinces (29 citations)
  • Weka Trainable Segmentation Plugin in ImageJ: A Semi-Automatic Tool Applied to Crystal Size Distributions of Microlites in Volcanic Rocks. (8 citations)
  • Magma Genesis at the South Aegean Volcanic Arc (7 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock

Georg F. Zellmer focuses on Geochemistry, Magma, Volcano, Petrology and Explosive eruption. His Geochemistry study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Volcanic arc. His Magma study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sill and Maar.

His research in Volcano focuses on subjects like Mafic, which are connected to Rhyolite and Pyroclastic rock. The Dike research he does as part of his general Petrology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Rift, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Basalt research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phenocryst, Igneous rock, Olivine and Crust.
