Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Basalt
  • Magma

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Phreatomagmatic eruption, Pyroclastic rock, Geomorphology and Peperite. His research in Geochemistry focuses on subjects like Rift, which are connected to Xenolith. His Phreatomagmatic eruption research is classified as research in Volcano.

The various areas that James D. L. White examines in his Pyroclastic rock study include Debris, Volcanic rock and Clastic rock. His research in Geomorphology intersects with topics in Lava, Volcanism, Sedimentary rock and Evolutionary biology. Within one scientific family, James D. L. White focuses on topics pertaining to Lapilli under Peperite, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Sill, Micrite and Magmatism.

His most cited work include:

  • Primary volcaniclastic rocks (301 citations)
  • Peperite: a review of magma-sediment mingling (251 citations)
  • Maar-diatreme volcanoes: A review (242 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Volcano, Pyroclastic rock, Magma and Petrology. His research on Geochemistry frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Geomorphology. His Volcano study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Volcanism and Diatreme.

James D. L. White has researched Pyroclastic rock in several fields, including Basalt, Mineralogy and Volcanic rock. His study looks at the intersection of Magma and topics like Seamount with Microlite. As a part of the same scientific family, James D. L. White mostly works in the field of Petrology, focusing on Clastic rock and, on occasion, Sedimentary depositional environment.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (49.70%)
  • Volcano (43.11%)
  • Pyroclastic rock (40.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Volcano (43.11%)
  • Geochemistry (49.70%)
  • Petrology (23.95%)

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

James D. L. White mostly deals with Volcano, Geochemistry, Petrology, Pyroclastic rock and Submarine eruption. The study incorporates disciplines such as Volcanism and Subaerial in addition to Volcano. His study in Lava, Lapilli, Basalt, Effusive eruption and Breccia falls within the category of Geochemistry.

His studies in Petrology integrate themes in fields like Andesite and Stratovolcano. His study in Pyroclastic rock focuses on Peperite in particular. James D. L. White works mostly in the field of Magma, limiting it down to concerns involving Volcanology and, occasionally, Shearing, Mineralogy and Seafloor spreading.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The largest deep-ocean silicic volcanic eruption of the past century (39 citations)
  • Characteristics and deposit stratigraphy of submarine-erupted silicic ash, Havre Volcano, Kermadec Arc, New Zealand (21 citations)
  • The pumice raft-forming 2012 Havre submarine eruption was effusive (20 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Basalt
  • Magma

His main research concerns Volcano, Geochemistry, Submarine eruption, Magma and Volcanism. His Volcano study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Atmospheric pressure, Underwater, Petrology, Subaerial and Diatreme. The concepts of his Diatreme study are interwoven with issues in Sill, Effusive eruption, Basalt and Volcanic rock.

His work is connected to Lava and Tephra, as a part of Geochemistry. His Submarine eruption research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Explosive eruption, Pumice and Submarine volcano. His study with Explosive eruption involves better knowledge in Pyroclastic rock.
