What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Basalt
- Volcano
- Igneous rock
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Oceanic crust, Petrology, Basalt and Subduction.
He is involved in the study of Geochemistry that focuses on Igneous rock in particular.
His research integrates issues of Lau Basin and Geophysics, Magnetic anomaly in his study of Oceanic crust.
While the research belongs to areas of Magnetic anomaly, he spends his time largely on the problem of Seabed, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Hydrothermal vent.
The Petrology study combines topics in areas such as Island arc and Olivine.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Mantle and Crust in addition to Basalt.
His most cited work include:
- East Pacific Rise: Hot Springs and Geophysical Experiments (611 citations)
- Early Arc Volcanism and the Ophiolite Problem: A Perspective from Drilling in the Western Pacific (261 citations)
- Evolution of intra-oceanic arc-trench systems (172 citations)
