Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Volcano
  • Plate tectonics

Hiroshi Wakita mostly deals with Groundwater, Mineralogy, Seismology, Radon and Volcano. His research investigates the connection with Groundwater and areas like Epicenter which intersect with concerns in Drop and Geomorphology. His Mineralogy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Atmospheric temperature range and Igneous rock.

Ocean tide and Hydrography is closely connected to Aquifer in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Seismology. His Volcano study contributes to a more complete understanding of Geochemistry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hydrothermal circulation, Trough and Forearc.

His most cited work include:

  • Geographical distribution of 3He/4He ratios in Japan: Implications for arc tectonics and incipient magmatism (348 citations)
  • Venting of Carbon Dioxide-Rich Fluid and Hydrate Formation in Mid-Okinawa Trough Backarc Basin (238 citations)
  • Isotopic composition of helium, and CO2 and CH4 contents in gases produced along the New Zealand part of a convergent plate boundary (216 citations)

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

Hiroshi Wakita mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Seismology, Mineralogy, Volcano and Groundwater. His Geochemistry research incorporates themes from Hydrothermal circulation and Earth science. His Seismology research focuses on Water level and how it connects with Aquifer.

His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Seawater, Helium and Atmosphere. His Volcano research includes elements of Volcanism and Hot spring. His Groundwater research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Epicenter, Radon and Geomorphology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (33.09%)
  • Seismology (28.68%)
  • Mineralogy (28.68%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1998-2015)?

  • Geochemistry (33.09%)
  • Seismology (28.68%)
  • Volcano (28.68%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Seismology, Volcano, Mantle and Groundwater. His work carried out in the field of Geochemistry brings together such families of science as Subduction, Hot spring and Mineralogy. His studies deal with areas such as δ13C, Water column and Geomorphology as well as Mineralogy.

His Seismology study combines topics in areas such as Aquifer and Water level. Hiroshi Wakita combines subjects such as Analytical chemistry and Isotopes of carbon with his study of Volcano. His Mantle research integrates issues from Hydrothermal circulation and Earth science.

Between 1998 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Earthquake-related water-level changes at 16 closely clustered wells in Tono, central Japan (96 citations)
  • In search of earthquake precursors in the water-level data of 16 closely clustered wells at Tono, Japan (47 citations)
  • Helium and carbon isotopic compositions of hot spring gases in the Tibetan Plateau (46 citations)

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

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Volcano
  • Oceanography

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Aquifer, Seismology, Water level and Carbon dioxide. Hiroshi Wakita focuses mostly in the field of Geochemistry, narrowing it down to topics relating to Hot spring and, in certain cases, Geothermal gradient, Carbonate minerals and Mantle. His study with Aquifer involves better knowledge in Groundwater.

He connects Seismology with Pressure data in his research. Carbon dioxide combines with fields such as Mineralogy, Volcano, Total organic carbon, Caldera and Soil gas in his research. His research in Mineralogy intersects with topics in Volcanic cone, Spatial distribution and Phreatic eruption.
