Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Erosion
  • Sediment

His primary areas of investigation include Geomorphology, Seismology, Thrust fault, Fluvial and Bedrock. His Geomorphology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Crust and Décollement. When carried out as part of a general Seismology research project, his work on Terrane, Craton and Fault is frequently linked to work in Context, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Thrust fault, focusing on Erosion and tectonics and, on occasion, Late Miocene. His Fluvial research incorporates themes from Bed load, Pebble and Lithology. His work in Bedrock addresses subjects such as Denudation, which are connected to disciplines such as Structural basin, Drainage basin and Erosion.

His most cited work include:

  • Active folding of fluvial terraces across the Siwaliks Hills, Himalayas of central Nepal (689 citations)
  • Fluvial incision and tectonic uplift across the Himalayas of central Nepal (548 citations)
  • Interseismic strain accumulation on the Himalayan crustal ramp (Nepal) (287 citations)

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

Jérôme Lavé spends much of his time researching Geomorphology, Erosion, Denudation, Sediment and Paleontology. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Geomorphology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Crust, and often Lithosphere. In the subject of general Erosion, his work in Erodability is often linked to Cosmogenic nuclide, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His Denudation study combines topics in areas such as Erosion and tectonics, Geochemistry, Plateau and Tectonic uplift. In his study, Seismology is strongly linked to Zircon, which falls under the umbrella field of Plateau. His Sediment research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hydrology, Floodplain, Structural basin and Weathering.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geomorphology (30.53%)
  • Erosion (26.32%)
  • Denudation (21.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Erosion (26.32%)
  • Sediment (20.00%)
  • Denudation (21.05%)

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

Jérôme Lavé mainly focuses on Erosion, Sediment, Denudation, Hydrology and Geochemistry. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Erosion, Provenance and Suspended load is strongly linked to Drainage basin. His Sediment study is related to the wider topic of Geomorphology.

His Geomorphology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fault scarp and Mountain formation. The various areas that Jérôme Lavé examines in his Denudation study include Range, Quaternary, Foreland basin and Paleozoic. Jérôme Lavé has researched Hydrology in several fields, including Landslide, Sediment transport, Bedrock river and Clay minerals.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The CREp program and the ICE-D production rate calibration database: A fully parameterizable and updated online tool to compute cosmic-ray exposure ages (78 citations)
  • Major temporal variations in shortening rate absorbed along a large active fold of the southeastern Tianshan piedmont (China) (36 citations)
  • Surface ruptures of large Himalayan earthquakes in Western Nepal: Evidence along a reactivated strand of the Main Boundary Thrust (29 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Erosion
  • Sediment

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geomorphology, Alluvium, Pleistocene, Sediment and Denudation. His study ties his expertise on Fold together with the subject of Geomorphology. The Alluvium study combines topics in areas such as Paleoseismology, Blind thrust earthquake, Thrust fault, Seismology and Chronology.

He has included themes like Glacial period, Aggradation and Sedimentary rock, Structural basin, Clastic rock in his Pleistocene study. His research in Sediment intersects with topics in Syntaxis, Floodplain, Plateau and Massif. His studies deal with areas such as Fault scarp, Erosion and Mountain formation as well as Denudation.
