What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Igneous rock
- Basalt
Geochemistry, Paleontology, Craton, Metamorphic rock and Metamorphism are his primary areas of study.
His Geochemistry study incorporates themes from Petrology and Terrane.
His work carried out in the field of Terrane brings together such families of science as Shear zone and Transpression.
Klaus Wemmer has researched Craton in several fields, including Geomorphology and Crust.
Klaus Wemmer combines subjects such as Proterozoic and Zircon with his study of Metamorphic rock.
His study in Zircon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Crustal recycling and Basement.
His most cited work include:
- New Age Constraints on the Metamorphic Evolution of the High‐Pressure/Low‐Temperature Belt in the Western Tianshan Mountains, NW China (132 citations)
- The Río de la Plata Craton: a review of units, boundaries, ages and isotopic signature (128 citations)
- Proterozoic–Paleozoic development of the basement of the Central Andes (18–26°S) — a mobile belt of the South American craton (123 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Klaus Wemmer spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Paleontology, Metamorphism, Shear zone and Metamorphic rock.
His studies deal with areas such as Craton, Magmatism and Terrane as well as Geochemistry.
His Craton research incorporates elements of Crust, Gondwana and Archean.
His research in Metamorphism intersects with topics in Migmatite, Foreland basin, Ordovician and Illite crystallinity.
His Shear zone research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Greenschist, Sinistral and dextral, Strain partitioning and Geomorphology.
As a part of the same scientific study, Klaus Wemmer usually deals with the Gneiss, concentrating on Igneous rock and frequently concerns with Volcanic rock.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (59.87%)
- Paleontology (30.26%)
- Metamorphism (18.42%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Geochemistry (59.87%)
- Paleontology (30.26%)
- Zircon (11.84%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Paleontology, Zircon, Shear zone and Rift.
His study in Geochemistry concentrates on Provenance, Diagenesis, Clay minerals, Paleozoic and Geochronology.
His research in the fields of Neogene, Stratigraphy and Continental margin overlaps with other disciplines such as North east and Earth.
Klaus Wemmer has included themes like Late Devonian extinction, Craton, Terrane and Archean in his Zircon study.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Cretaceous and Paleogene in addition to Shear zone.
His research integrates issues of Range and Fault gouge in his study of Rift.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Evolution of the Major Gercino Shear Zone in the Dom Feliciano Belt, South Brazil, and implications for the assembly of southwestern Gondwana (14 citations)
- Almandine garnet-bearing rhyolites associated to bimodal volcanism in the Mesa Central of Mexico: Geochemical, petrological and geochronological evolution (9 citations)
- Late Paleoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic magmatism of the Nico Pérez Terrane (Uruguay): Tightening up correlations in southwestern Gondwana (7 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Igneous rock
- Basalt
His main research concerns Geochemistry, Shear zone, Terrane, Transpression and Zircon.
Geochemistry is closely attributed to Orogeny in his research.
To a larger extent, he studies Paleontology with the aim of understanding Shear zone.
His Terrane research focuses on Craton and how it connects with Tectonic phase and Gondwana.
His Transpression research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Petrography, Strain partitioning, Magmatism and Unconformity.
His work deals with themes such as Greenschist and Felsic, which intersect with Zircon.
