- Igneous rock
- Plate tectonics
John A. Percival mostly deals with Geochemistry, Gneiss, Archean, Mafic and Crust.
Geochemistry is frequently linked to Geomorphology in his study.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Granulite and Terrane.
His Archean research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Metamorphism, Subduction, Rift and Craton.
His work in Mafic addresses subjects such as Geochronology, which are connected to disciplines such as Ophiolite, MINTO, Sill and Block.
His research integrates issues of Greenstone belt and Zircon in his study of Crust.
His most cited work include:
- Tectonic evolution of the western Superior Province from NATMAP and Lithoprobe studies (170 citations)
- Archean crust as revealed in the Kapuskasing uplift, Superior province, Canada (167 citations)
- The Kapuskasing uplift: a geological and geophysical synthesis (144 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
John A. Percival spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Archean, Crust, Craton and Seismology.
His Geochemistry study frequently links to other fields, such as Terrane.
His Archean research includes elements of Suture, Pluton and Continental margin.
His studies in Crust integrate themes in fields like Precambrian and Lithosphere.
His Craton research incorporates elements of Transpression, Subduction, Thermal subsidence and Tectonic zone.
The various areas that John A. Percival examines in his Gneiss study include Proterozoic, Granulite and Lithology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (48.76%)
- Archean (24.79%)
- Crust (19.83%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
John A. Percival mainly investigates Geochemistry, Craton, Geochronology, Tectonic zone and Paleontology.
His work on Crust as part of general Geochemistry research is frequently linked to Mineral potential, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His Crust study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Natural, Precambrian and Lithosphere.
His research in Craton intersects with topics in Bedrock and Quaternary.
The concepts of his Geochronology study are interwoven with issues in Orogeny and Zircon, Monazite.
His work on Greenstone belt as part of general Archean study is frequently linked to Base metal, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
Between 2013 and 2020, his most popular works were:
- U-Pb geochronology of the Blake River Group, Abitibi greenstone belt, Quebec, and implications for base metal exploration. (23 citations)
- U-Pb zircon geochronology of a transect across the Thelon Tectonic Zone, Queen Maud region, and adjacent Rae Craton, Kitikmeot region, Nunavut, Canada (10 citations)
- U-Pb Zircon Geochronology and Depositional History of the Montresor group, Rae Province, Nunavut, Canada (8 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Basalt
- Igneous rock
- Plate tectonics
His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Geochronology, Zircon, Transect and Craton.
His studies deal with areas such as Structural basin and Basement as well as Geochemistry.
His Geochronology study combines topics in areas such as Greenstone belt, Archean, Metallogeny and Volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposit.
His study in Zircon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sedimentary depositional environment, Tectonics, Shield and Group.
His Transect investigation overlaps with other disciplines such as Tectonic zone and Queen.
