What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
His scientific interests lie mostly in Tectonics, Seismology, Subduction, Accretionary wedge and Paleontology.
His studies in Tectonics integrate themes in fields like Volcano, Fold, Petrology and Geomorphology.
The various areas that Jacques Malavieille examines in his Geomorphology study include Critical taper and Pure shear, Simple shear.
His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Geochemistry and Metamorphism.
His work deals with themes such as Seismic gap, Lithosphere and Seamount, which intersect with Subduction.
When carried out as part of a general Paleontology research project, his work on Craton, Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Orogeny is frequently linked to work in Plateau, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His most cited work include:
- Tectonics of the Qinling Belt: build-up and evolution of eastern Asia (530 citations)
- A mechanism for syn-collisional rock exhumation and associated normal faulting: Results from physical modelling (436 citations)
- Mesozoic and Cenozoic tectonics of the northern edge of the Tibetan plateau: fission-track constraints (362 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Seismology, Tectonics, Subduction, Geomorphology and Paleontology are his primary areas of study.
His work carried out in the field of Tectonics brings together such families of science as Fold, Petrology, Erosion and Deformation.
His studies examine the connections between Subduction and genetics, as well as such issues in Lithosphere, with regards to Crust.
His study explores the link between Geomorphology and topics such as Underplating that cross with problems in Erosion and tectonics.
His work on Paleozoic, Mesozoic, Terrane and Orogeny as part of general Paleontology research is frequently linked to Plateau, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His study in Accretionary wedge is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Geophysics and Forearc.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (37.50%)
- Tectonics (40.44%)
- Subduction (28.68%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?
- Seismology (37.50%)
- Tectonics (40.44%)
- Deformation (12.50%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Jacques Malavieille mainly investigates Seismology, Tectonics, Deformation, Strike-slip tectonics and Subduction.
In the field of Seismology, his study on Large earthquakes, Paleoseismology and Tectonophysics overlaps with subjects such as Scaling.
His Tectonics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Fault, Petrology and Geomorphology.
His Petrology research includes themes of Nappe and Underplating.
Within one scientific family, Jacques Malavieille focuses on topics pertaining to Fault scarp under Strike-slip tectonics, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Terrace, Compression and Sedimentary basin.
His Subduction research entails a greater understanding of Paleontology.
Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Graphite formation by carbonate reduction during subduction (103 citations)
- Stacking and metamorphism of continuous segments of subducted lithosphere in a high-pressure wedge: The example of Alpine Corsica (France) (87 citations)
- Earthquake synchrony and clustering on Fucino faults (Central Italy) as revealed from in situ Cl-36 exposure dating (86 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Plate tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Tectonics
His main research concerns Tectonics, Petrology, Seismology, Fault scarp and Strike-slip tectonics.
Particularly relevant to Analogue modelling is his body of work in Tectonics.
The Petrology study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary rock, Submarine landslide, Basement, Geomorphology and Underplating.
His Geomorphology research integrates issues from Massif, Fold and Nappe.
Jacques Malavieille integrates many fields, such as Seismology and Wedge, in his works.
His studies deal with areas such as Sedimentary basin, Terrace, Compression and Deformation as well as Fault scarp.
