2011 - Hellman Fellow

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Metamorphism, Geochronology, Geomorphology and Shear zone. His Geochemistry research includes elements of Granulite and Eclogite. The study incorporates disciplines such as Isograd, Metamorphic rock, Gneiss and Mantle in addition to Metamorphism.

His work deals with themes such as Mineralogy, Petrology and Zircon, which intersect with Geochronology. His Geomorphology study combines topics in areas such as Tectonics and Crust. The concepts of his Shear zone study are interwoven with issues in Partial melting and Main Central Thrust.

His most cited work include:

  • Laser-ablation split-stream ICP petrochronology (265 citations)
  • Defining the Himalayan Main Central Thrust in Nepal (223 citations)
  • Tectonic evolution of the Mogok metamorphic belt, Burma (Myanmar) constrained by U‐Th‐Pb dating of metamorphic and magmatic rocks (223 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Metamorphic rock, Geochronology, Metamorphism and Monazite. His study in Geochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Geomorphology and Pluton. His research integrates issues of Sedimentary rock and Shear zone in his study of Geomorphology.

When carried out as part of a general Metamorphic rock research project, his work on Kyanite is frequently linked to work in Core, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. John M. Cottle interconnects Orogeny, Igneous rock, Tectonophysics, Mafic and Continental arc in the investigation of issues within Geochronology. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Metamorphism, focusing on Granulite and, on occasion, Eclogite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (61.62%)
  • Metamorphic rock (24.24%)
  • Geochronology (23.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (61.62%)
  • Paleontology (16.67%)
  • Subduction (6.57%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Paleontology, Subduction, Metamorphic rock and Zircon. His work on Monazite, Gneiss and Mantle as part of general Geochemistry study is frequently connected to Core and Deformation, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His research in Monazite intersects with topics in Metamorphism, Metasomatism and Titanite.

His Subduction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Volcano, Magma and Petrology. His studies deal with areas such as Allanite and Geochronology as well as Metamorphic rock. His Zircon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Continental crust, Partial melting, Crust and Orogeny.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Transpressive Deformation in the Southern European Variscan Belt: New Insights From the Aiguilles Rouges Massif (Western Alps) (8 citations)
  • Late Cenozoic topographic evolution of the Eastern Cordillera and Puna Plateau margin in the southern Central Andes (NW Argentina) (8 citations)
  • Timing and kinematics of flow in a transpressive dextral shear zone, Maures Massif (Southern France) (6 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Igneous rock

John M. Cottle mostly deals with Paleontology, Geochemistry, Structural geology, Cenozoic and Zircon. His study involves Metamorphic rock and Allanite, a branch of Geochemistry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Massif and Transpression.

John M. Cottle has included themes like Diachronous, Rift and Cretaceous in his Cenozoic study. His Cretaceous study incorporates themes from Plateau and Mountain formation. His Zircon research incorporates themes from Basaltic andesite and Continental crust, Mantle, Petrogenesis.
