What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Subduction
- Seismology
His primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Crust, Lithosphere, Subduction and Suture.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Basement, Tectonics and Collision zone.
When carried out as part of a general Lithosphere research project, his work on Delamination is frequently linked to work in Plateau, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
James Mechie frequently studies issues relating to Mantle and Subduction.
His Mantle study is concerned with the larger field of Geophysics.
His Suture study often links to related topics such as Terrane.
His most cited work include:
- Partially Molten Middle Crust Beneath Southern Tibet: Synthesis of Project INDEPTH Results (939 citations)
- Seismic Images of Crust and Upper Mantle Beneath Tibet: Evidence for Eurasian Plate Subduction (480 citations)
- Lithospheric and upper mantle structure of southern Tibet from a seismological passive source experiment (308 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Seismology, Crust, Lithosphere, Subduction and Mantle.
His Seismology study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Structural basin.
His Crust research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transform fault, Suture, Petrology, Underplating and Terrane.
In general Lithosphere, his work in Asthenosphere is often linked to Hindu kush linking many areas of study.
His study in Subduction is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Slab and Induced seismicity, Seismic zone.
His Mantle research focuses on subjects like Transition zone, which are linked to Continental margin.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (71.55%)
- Crust (35.34%)
- Lithosphere (31.90%)
