Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Paleontology
  • Basalt

John A. Tarduno spends much of his time researching Paleomagnetism, Earth's magnetic field, Paleontology, Cretaceous and Geophysics. His studies in Paleomagnetism integrate themes in fields like Sedimentary rock, Plate tectonics, Natural remanent magnetization, Remanence and Magnetic hysteresis. His research integrates issues of Field strength, Atmosphere, Solar wind and Early Earth in his study of Earth's magnetic field.

He interconnects Oceanography and Hotspot in the investigation of issues within Paleontology. The Cretaceous study combines topics in areas such as Basalt, Tectonics, Lithosphere and North American Plate. His Geophysics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Geomagnetic reversal, Rock magnetism, Mineralogy, Dynamo theory and Archean.

His most cited work include:

  • The Emperor Seamounts: southward motion of the Hawaiian hotspot plume in Earth's mantle. (291 citations)
  • Rapid formation of Ontong Java Plateau by Aptian mantle plume volcanism (219 citations)
  • Geodynamo, Solar Wind, and Magnetopause 3.4 to 3.45 Billion Years Ago (193 citations)

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

His main research concerns Paleomagnetism, Paleontology, Geophysics, Geochemistry and Earth's magnetic field. John A. Tarduno has included themes like Natural remanent magnetization, Magnetization and Remanence in his Paleomagnetism study. Many of his studies on Paleontology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Hotspot.

John A. Tarduno focuses mostly in the field of Geophysics, narrowing it down to matters related to Dynamo theory and, in some cases, Inner core. His research in Earth's magnetic field intersects with topics in Geomagnetic reversal and Solar wind. His Cretaceous study combines topics in areas such as Arctic and Oceanic crust.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleomagnetism (33.85%)
  • Paleontology (29.18%)
  • Geophysics (24.90%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Paleomagnetism (33.85%)
  • Geophysics (24.90%)
  • Dynamo theory (10.89%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleomagnetism, Geophysics, Dynamo theory, Geochemistry and Inner core. As a member of one scientific family, John A. Tarduno mostly works in the field of Paleomagnetism, focusing on Remanence and, on occasion, Radiometric dating. His Geophysics study incorporates themes from Geodynamics, Earth's magnetic field, Microanalysis and Dynamo.

His Earth's magnetic field research focuses on Outer core and how it connects with Solar wind. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mars Exploration Program, Paleontology, Energy flux, Magnetic reconnection and Magnetosphere. His Inner core research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Core, Paleointensity, Silicate, Precambrian and Crystal.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Young inner core inferred from Ediacaran ultra-low geomagnetic field intensity (42 citations)
  • Mass, energy, and momentum capture from stellar winds by magnetized and unmagnetized planets: implications for atmospheric erosion and habitability (26 citations)
  • Paleomagnetism indicates that primary magnetite in zircon records a strong Hadean geodynamo. (14 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Paleontology
  • Ecology

John A. Tarduno mainly investigates Core, Paleontology, South Atlantic Anomaly, Paleomagnetism and Earth's magnetic field. He focuses mostly in the field of Core, narrowing it down to topics relating to Inner core and, in certain cases, Structure of the Earth, Basalt and Field strength. His work on Mantle convection, True polar wander, Seamount and Mantle plume as part of general Paleontology research is frequently linked to Plume, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His Paleomagnetism research incorporates themes from Geochemistry and Hotspot. His studies link Solar wind with Earth's magnetic field. Particularly relevant to Mantle is his body of work in Geophysics.
