What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Plate tectonics
- Paleontology
John D.A. Piper mainly investigates Paleontology, Paleomagnetism, Seismology, Clockwise and Apparent polar wander.
His is involved in several facets of Paleontology study, as is seen by his studies on Supercontinent, Tectonics, Precambrian, Gondwana and Plate tectonics.
The various areas that John D.A. Piper examines in his Supercontinent study include Continental crust, Rodinia and Proterozoic.
His studies deal with areas such as Magmatism, Ophiolite, Extensional tectonics and Earth science as well as Gondwana.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Red beds and Paleozoic in addition to Paleomagnetism.
His Terrane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Magnetostratigraphy, Imbrication and Magnetic dip.
His most cited work include:
- Tectonics and Magmatism in Turkey and the Surrounding Area (348 citations)
- Assessment of heavy metal pollution from a Fe-smelting plant in urban river sediments using environmental magnetic and geochemical methods (167 citations)
- Magnetostratigraphic study of the Kuche Depression, Tarim Basin, and Cenozoic uplift of the Tian Shan Range, Western China (147 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
John D.A. Piper spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Paleomagnetism, Seismology, Apparent polar wander and Tectonics.
His research in Paleozoic, Precambrian, Proterozoic, Terrane and Ordovician are components of Paleontology.
His studies in Terrane integrate themes in fields like Metamorphism and Gondwana.
His study in Paleomagnetism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Geochemistry, Igneous rock and Volcanic rock.
His Seismology research focuses on Neogene and how it connects with Polarity chron, Magnetostratigraphy and Volcano.
John D.A. Piper has included themes like Polar wander, Basement and Rift in his Apparent polar wander study.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (67.57%)
- Paleomagnetism (58.78%)
- Seismology (21.62%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2019)?
- Paleontology (67.57%)
- Paleomagnetism (58.78%)
- Tectonics (18.24%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Paleomagnetism, Tectonics, Seismology and Neogene.
His study in Paleontology concentrates on Continental crust, Supercontinent, Proterozoic, Apparent polar wander and Precambrian.
His work focuses on many connections between Precambrian and other disciplines, such as Plate tectonics, that overlap with his field of interest in Geophysics.
His work carried out in the field of Paleomagnetism brings together such families of science as Paleozoic, Fold, Hellenic arc, Gondwana and Terrane.
His Tectonics study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentary rock, Secular variation, Cenozoic and Diagenesis.
His Neogene study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Volcano, Foreland basin and Magnetostratigraphy.
Between 2009 and 2019, his most popular works were:
- Assessment of heavy metal pollution from a Fe-smelting plant in urban river sediments using environmental magnetic and geochemical methods (167 citations)
- Paleomagnetic constraints on the paleogeography of the East Asian blocks during Late Paleozoic and Early Mesozoic times (71 citations)
- Distributed neotectonic deformation in the Anatolides of Turkey: A palaeomagnetic analysis (46 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Plate tectonics
- Basalt
John D.A. Piper mostly deals with Paleontology, Tectonics, Paleomagnetism, Environmental magnetism and Terrane.
His Tectonics study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Precambrian.
His Paleomagnetism study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Subduction.
Terrane is a subfield of Seismology that John D.A. Piper studies.
Many of his research projects under Seismology are closely connected to Clockwise with Clockwise, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
John D.A. Piper combines subjects such as Archean, Laurentia, Proterozoic and Crust with his study of Supercontinent.
