Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Basalt
Volcano
Igneous rock

John Maclennan mainly focuses on Basalt, Mantle, Crust, Geochemistry and Melt inclusions. His study focuses on the intersection of Basalt and fields such as Lava with connections in the field of Magma chamber and Igneous rock. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Iceland plume and Thermal state.

His Crust study combines topics in areas such as Ophiolite, Ridge, Gabbro and Oceanic crust. His research investigates the connection between Geochemistry and topics such as Mantle plume that intersect with issues in Hotspot, Peridotite, Transition zone, Mantle wedge and Upwelling. John Maclennan is investigating Melt inclusions as part of his Olivine, Mineralogy and Volcano and Melt inclusions study.

His most cited work include:

Drilling to gabbro in intact ocean crust (184 citations)
Estimating Divergence Dates and Substitution Rates in the Drosophila Phylogeny (178 citations)
The link between volcanism and deglaciation in Iceland (164 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Mantle, Basalt, Geochemistry, Petrology and Volcano. His work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Igneous rock, Crust, Iceland plume, Mantle plume and Hotspot. His Crust study is concerned with Geophysics in general.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Lava, Trace element, Magma chamber and Olivine in addition to Basalt. His research in Petrology tackles topics such as Magma which are related to areas like Matrix. In his research, Earth science, Deglaciation and Glacial period is intimately related to Volcanism, which falls under the overarching field of Volcano.

He most often published in these fields:

Mantle (45.81%)
Basalt (35.48%)
Geochemistry (33.55%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

Petrology (30.97%)
Volcano (29.68%)
Mantle (45.81%)

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

His main research concerns Petrology, Volcano, Mantle, Olivine and Melt inclusions. His Petrology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lava, Magmatism, Basalt and Magma. His research integrates issues of Volcanism and Crust in his study of Volcano.

His research on Mantle concerns the broader Geophysics. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Olivine, concentrating on Crystallization and intersecting with Lithology. His Melt inclusions course of study focuses on Inclusion and Rift zone and Caldera.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

Mafic tiers and transient mushes: evidence from Iceland. (15 citations)
Rapid transcrustal magma movement under Iceland (13 citations)
Crystal scavenging from mush piles recorded by melt inclusions. (12 citations)

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

Volcano
Basalt
Igneous rock

John Maclennan spends much of his time researching Petrology, Volcano, Mantle, Olivine and Crust. His Petrology research integrates issues from Lava, Deglaciation, Lithosphere and Magmatism. His Volcano study incorporates themes from Glacial period, Volcanism, Diachronous, Fold and Mid-ocean ridge.

His Melt inclusions study in the realm of Mantle interacts with subjects such as Electron backscatter diffraction. His Olivine research incorporates themes from Chronometry, Geothermobarometry, Volcanic hazards, Ridge and Magma. His Crust research includes themes of Spinel and Basalt.
