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, Zircon, Geochemistry, Terrane and Provenance.
Paleontology is closely attributed to Geomorphology in his study.
The various areas that George E. Gehrels examines in his Zircon study include Basement, Tectonics, Proterozoic, Mesozoic and Geochronology.
His study explores the link between Geochemistry and topics such as Petrology that cross with problems in Carboniferous.
As a member of one scientific family, George E. Gehrels mostly works in the field of Terrane, focusing on Suture and, on occasion, Back-arc basin.
His Provenance research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary rock, Unconformity and Sedimentary depositional environment, Paleocurrent.
His most cited work include:
- Enhanced precision, accuracy, efficiency, and spatial resolution of U-Pb ages by laser ablation-multicollector-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (790 citations)
- Use of U–Pb ages of detrital zircons to infer maximum depositional ages of strata: A test against a Colorado Plateau Mesozoic database (734 citations)
- Geological records of the Lhasa-Qiangtang and Indo-Asian collisions in the Nima area of central Tibet (555 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Paleontology, Geochemistry, Zircon, Geochronology and Terrane.
His study in Paleontology concentrates on Provenance, Cretaceous, Paleozoic, Foreland basin and Detritus.
His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Geomorphology, Batholith, Petrology and Pluton.
His research investigates the connection with Zircon and areas like Laurentia which intersect with concerns in Supercontinent.
His research in Geochronology intersects with topics in Allochthon and Mesozoic.
His Terrane research integrates issues from Subduction, Clastic rock, Continental margin and Volcanic rock.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (50.10%)
- Geochemistry (41.91%)
- Zircon (40.55%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?
- Geochemistry (41.91%)
- Paleontology (50.10%)
- Zircon (40.55%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Zircon, Geochronology and Paleozoic.
His Geochemistry research focuses on Tectonics and how it relates to Mesozoic.
His Paleontology study often links to related topics such as Colorado plateau.
His study in Zircon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Structural basin, Cenozoic, Provenance, Magmatism and Pluton.
His studies in Geochronology integrate themes in fields like Isotope analysis, Isotope geochemistry and La icp ms.
His research investigates the link between Paleozoic and topics such as Ordovician that cross with problems in Devonian.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Community‐Derived Standards for LA‐ICP‐MS U‐(Th‐)Pb Geochronology – Uncertainty Propagation, Age Interpretation and Data Reporting (261 citations)
- Empirical evidence for stability of the 405-kiloyear Jupiter-Venus eccentricity cycle over hundreds of millions of years. (45 citations)
- Along-strike continuity of structure, stratigraphy, and kinematic history in the Himalayan thrust belt: The view from Northeastern India (38 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Plate tectonics
His main research concerns Zircon, Paleontology, Geochronology, Geochemistry and Paleozoic.
The concepts of his Zircon study are interwoven with issues in Sedimentary depositional environment, Tectonics, Provenance and Cenozoic.
In his study, Tributary is inextricably linked to Fluvial, which falls within the broad field of Provenance.
His work deals with themes such as Batholith, Craton and Archean, which intersect with Geochronology.
The Crust research George E. Gehrels does as part of his general Geochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Biological dispersal, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
His Paleozoic research includes elements of Isotope geochemistry and Ordovician.
