What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
His main research concerns Rift, Mantle, Seafloor spreading, Paleontology and Seismology.
Gianreto Manatschal is interested in Volcanic passive margin, which is a branch of Rift.
His Mantle study incorporates themes from Earth science, Ophiolite, Tectonics and Basalt.
His studies deal with areas such as Continental crust and Continental margin as well as Seafloor spreading.
His work on Extensional deformation as part of general Seismology study is frequently connected to Drilling, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
As a member of one scientific family, Gianreto Manatschal mostly works in the field of Crust, focusing on Lithosphere and, on occasion, Plate tectonics.
His most cited work include:
- Evolution of magma-poor continental margins from rifting to seafloor spreading (463 citations)
- A mechanism to thin the continental lithosphere at magma-poor margins (415 citations)
- New models for evolution of magma-poor rifted margins based on a review of data and concepts from West Iberia and the Alps (332 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Rift, Mantle, Lithosphere and Petrology.
His work on Tectonics, Sedimentary rock, Structural basin and Cretaceous as part of general Paleontology study is frequently linked to Margin, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Rift research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Detachment fault, Continental margin and Continental crust, Crust.
The various areas that Gianreto Manatschal examines in his Crust study include Subduction, Shear zone and Plate tectonics.
His work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Seismology, Seafloor spreading and Oceanic crust.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Basement and Magma in addition to Petrology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (44.44%)
- Rift (43.33%)
- Mantle (31.48%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Rift (43.33%)
- Paleontology (44.44%)
- Mantle (31.48%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Rift, Paleontology, Mantle, Petrology and Geochemistry.
His Rift research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary rock, Lithosphere and Continental crust.
His Continental crust research includes elements of Asthenosphere, Fault and Continental margin.
His work on Subduction as part of his general Paleontology study is frequently connected to Breakup, Field and Salt tectonics, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
The concepts of his Mantle study are interwoven with issues in Extensional tectonics and Cretaceous.
His research integrates issues of Crust, Seafloor spreading, Magmatism, Oceanic crust and Magma in his study of Petrology.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Reappraisal of the magma-rich versus magma-poor rifted margin archetypes (26 citations)
- Lateral evolution of the rift-to-drift transition in the South China Sea: Evidence from multi-channel seismic data and IODP Expeditions 367&368 drilling results (18 citations)
- Rifted Margins: State of the Art and Future Challenges (17 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
