What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Plate tectonics
- Oceanography
His scientific interests lie mostly in Mid-ocean ridge, Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Seafloor spreading, Oceanic core complex and Seismology.
His Mid-ocean ridge research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Transform fault and Hydrothermal circulation.
His Mid-Atlantic Ridge study combines topics in areas such as Magmatism, Fault scarp and Petrology.
His Seafloor spreading study also includes
- Oceanic crust together with Oceanography,
- Magma, which have a strong connection to Massif, Geomorphology and Dome.
His Oceanic core complex research includes elements of Fault and Geochemistry.
His research integrates issues of Abyssal hill, Fracture zone and Lithosphere in his study of Fault.
His most cited work include:
- Corrugated slip surfaces formed at ridge–transform intersections on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (366 citations)
- Central role of detachment faults in accretion of slow-spreading oceanic lithosphere (280 citations)
- Strength of slightly serpentinized peridotites: Implications for the tectonics of oceanic lithosphere (253 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Hydrothermal circulation, Geochemistry, Seismology, Seafloor spreading and Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
His Seismology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Ridge.
Javier Escartín combines subjects such as Magma chamber, Mid-ocean ridge, Petrology, Bathymetry and Oceanic crust with his study of Seafloor spreading.
His Mid-ocean ridge research incorporates elements of Lava, Magmatism, Lithosphere and Magma.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Magnetic anomaly and Crust in addition to Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
The Fault scarp research Javier Escartín does as part of his general Fault study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Oceanic core complex, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.
He most often published in these fields:
- Hydrothermal circulation (32.16%)
- Geochemistry (28.24%)
- Seismology (31.37%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Seismology (31.37%)
- Seafloor spreading (29.02%)
- Fault (16.08%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Seismology, Seafloor spreading, Fault, Geochemistry and Submarine.
His Tectonics, Mass wasting, Induced seismicity and Landslide study in the realm of Seismology connects with subjects such as Fault model.
The various areas that he examines in his Seafloor spreading study include Tectonophysics, Seabed, Petrology, Bathymetry and Oceanic crust.
The Petrology study combines topics in areas such as Ridge and Mid-ocean ridge.
His work on Fault scarp, Cataclastic rock and Fault breccia as part of general Fault study is frequently linked to Oceanic core complex, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Javier Escartín interconnects Hydrothermal circulation and Geomorphology in the investigation of issues within Geochemistry.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Tectonic structure, evolution, and the nature of oceanic core complexes and their detachment fault zones (13°20′N and 13°30′N, Mid Atlantic Ridge) (43 citations)
- An integrated view of the methane system in the pockmarks at Vestnesa Ridge, 79°N (39 citations)
- Magmatism, serpentinization and life: Insights through drilling the Atlantis Massif (IODP Expedition 357) (22 citations)
