Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Basalt
  • Magma

His primary areas of study are Volcano, Magma, Geochemistry, Seismology and Lava. He is interested in Volcanic ash, which is a branch of Volcano. The concepts of his Volcanic ash study are interwoven with issues in Peléan eruption, Volcanic hazards, Volcanic cone and Hawaiian eruption.

His work carried out in the field of Magma brings together such families of science as Fumarole and Petrology. His Geochemistry study which covers Hydrothermal circulation that intersects with Resurgent dome. The various areas that John Stix examines in his Lava study include Pyroclastic rock, Igneous rock and Volcanic rock.

His most cited work include:

  • Encyclopedia of Volcanoes (1134 citations)
  • Paleomagnetic chronology, fluvial processes and tectonic implications of the Siwalik deposits near Chinji village, Pakistan. (268 citations)
  • Atmospheric dispersion, environmental effects and potential health hazard associated with the low-altitude gas plume of Masaya volcano, Nicaragua (141 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Volcano, Geochemistry, Caldera, Magma and Earth science. John Stix has researched Volcano in several fields, including Hydrothermal circulation and Mineralogy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Plume and Igneous rock.

His work in Caldera addresses issues such as Rhyolite, which are connected to fields such as Quartz. His Magma research is mostly focused on the topic Magma chamber. His Earth science study incorporates themes from Volcanism, Phreatic eruption and Volcanology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Volcano (52.74%)
  • Geochemistry (41.10%)
  • Caldera (26.03%)

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

  • Volcano (52.74%)
  • Geochemistry (41.10%)
  • Earth science (16.44%)

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

His main research concerns Volcano, Geochemistry, Earth science, Caldera and Magma. As part of his studies on Volcano, John Stix frequently links adjacent subjects like Hydrothermal circulation. John Stix combines subjects such as Fault, Basalt and Remote sensing with his study of Caldera.

His study in the field of Explosive eruption also crosses realms of Phreatic. His studies in Explosive eruption integrate themes in fields like Seismic tomography and Mafic. His Sill research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Laccolith, Magma chamber and Crust.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Understanding and forecasting phreatic eruptions driven by magmatic degassing (32 citations)
  • Magma plumbing beneath collapse caldera volcanic systems (32 citations)
  • Insights on Hydrothermal‐Magmatic Interactions and Eruptive Processes at Poás Volcano (Costa Rica) From High‐Frequency Gas Monitoring and Drone Measurements (16 citations)

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

  • Volcano
  • Basalt
  • Magma

John Stix spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Volcano, Drone, Phreatic eruption and Petrology. His work in the fields of Geochemistry, such as Trace element, Lava and Melt inclusions, intersects with other areas such as Silicate. Drone is integrated with Instrumentation, Earth science, Environmental science, Volcanic Gases and Hydrothermal circulation in his research.

His Phreatic eruption study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Crater lake, Explosive eruption and Phreatomagmatic eruption. His Petrology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Laccolith, Magma chamber, Magma and Caldera. His Magma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sill and Crust.
