What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Subduction
- Sedimentary rock
George D. Spence spends much of his time researching Clathrate hydrate, Subduction, Seismology, Continental margin and Reflection.
In Subduction, he works on issues like Continental shelf, which are connected to Tectonics, Accretionary wedge and Geomorphology.
His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Buttress and Bathymetry.
His research in Continental margin intersects with topics in Seismic refraction, Rift and Igneous rock.
As part of one scientific family, George D. Spence deals mainly with the area of Mineralogy, narrowing it down to issues related to the Seabed, and often Submarine pipeline.
His Seafloor spreading research includes elements of Waves and shallow water, Seismic wave and Petrology.
His most cited work include:
- Magmatism at rifted continental margins (350 citations)
- A seismic study of methane hydrate marine bottom simulating reflectors (331 citations)
- Velocity structure of a gas hydrate reflector. (211 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Seismology, Clathrate hydrate, Seafloor spreading, Subduction and Submarine pipeline.
George D. Spence combines subjects such as Seismic tomography and Crust with his study of Seismology.
His Seafloor spreading study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sedimentary rock, Ridge and Bathymetry.
His work in Subduction addresses subjects such as Continental shelf, which are connected to disciplines such as Juan de Fuca Plate.
In his work, Pore water pressure is strongly intertwined with Geomorphology, which is a subfield of Submarine pipeline.
