Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Paleontology
  • Basalt

Paleontology, Volcano, Lava, Rift and Seismology are his primary areas of study. The Volcano study combines topics in areas such as Volcanism and Cenozoic. The study incorporates disciplines such as Glacial period, Geophysics and Igneous rock in addition to Lava.

His Rift research incorporates elements of Fault, Caldera and Stratovolcano. His study looks at the relationship between Seismology and topics such as Archipelago, which overlap with Passive margin, Continental margin, Oceanic crust and Mantle plume. As part of the same scientific family, Hervé Guillou usually focuses on K–Ar dating, concentrating on Basalt and intersecting with Geomorphology.

His most cited work include:

  • Hotspot volcanism close to a passive continental margin: the Canary Islands (242 citations)
  • K-Ar ages and magnetic stratigraphy of a hotspot-induced, fast grown oceanic island: El Hierro, Canary Islands (212 citations)
  • Geology and volcanology of La Palma and El Hierro, Western Canaries (174 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Paleontology, Volcano, Lava, Geochemistry and Seismology. Hervé Guillou works mostly in the field of Paleontology, limiting it down to topics relating to Archipelago and, in certain cases, Hotspot, as a part of the same area of interest. Hervé Guillou has researched Volcano in several fields, including Volcanism, Stage, Geomorphology and Rift zone.

His Lava research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Paleomagnetism, Geophysics, Sea level and Subaerial. His work in Seismology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Sedimentary rock. In Quaternary, he works on issues like Holocene, which are connected to Tephra and Glacial period.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (45.23%)
  • Volcano (45.23%)
  • Lava (25.63%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Paleontology (45.23%)
  • Volcano (45.23%)
  • Geochemistry (23.62%)

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

Hervé Guillou focuses on Paleontology, Volcano, Geochemistry, Lava and Geochronology. Hervé Guillou focuses mostly in the field of Paleontology, narrowing it down to matters related to Seismology and, in some cases, Submarine pipeline. The concepts of his Volcano study are interwoven with issues in Stage, Volcanism and Rift zone.

His research investigates the connection between Lava and topics such as Sanidine that intersect with problems in Strombolian eruption and Dense-rock equivalent. His studies in Geochronology integrate themes in fields like Provenance, Mineralogy, Geomorphology and Stone tool. His studies deal with areas such as Structural basin, Quaternary and Chronology as well as Pleistocene.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Dynamics of the earth magnetic field in the 10-75 kyr period comprising the Laschamp and Mono Lake excursions: New results from the French Chaîne des Puys in a global perspective (62 citations)
  • 40Ar/39Ar constraints on some French landmark Late Pliocene to Early Pleistocene large mammalian paleofaunas: Paleoenvironmental and paleoecological implications (55 citations)
  • Late Quaternary record of the vegetation and catchment-related changes from Lake Paravani (Javakheti, South Caucasus) (50 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Paleontology
  • Basalt

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Paleontology, Volcano, Geochemistry, Cenozoic and Mantle. His study on Lava, Paleomagnetism and Pleistocene is often connected to Excursion as part of broader study in Paleontology. His Volcano research incorporates themes from Plio-Pleistocene and Massif.

His Cenozoic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Late Miocene, Ophiolite and Gondwana. He interconnects Subduction and Basalt in the investigation of issues within Mantle. His research investigates the connection with Seismology and areas like Secular variation which intersect with concerns in Holocene.
