Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Subduction
  • Plate tectonics
  • Sedimentary rock

His primary areas of study are Subduction, Seismology, Paleontology, Petrology and Crust. Laurent Jolivet has included themes like Geochemistry and Plate tectonics in his Subduction study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Slab and Neogene.

His study in the field of Tectonics, Suture, Structural basin and Tectonophysics is also linked to topics like Extension. The concepts of his Petrology study are interwoven with issues in Blueschist and Geophysics. His Crust study combines topics in areas such as Metamorphism, Eclogitization, Detachment fault and Metamorphic core complex.

His most cited work include:

  • Mediterranean extension and the Africa‐Eurasia collision (714 citations)
  • Lateral slab deformation and the origin of the western Mediterranean arcs (687 citations)
  • Convergence history across Zagros (Iran): constraints from collisional and earlier deformation (681 citations)

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

Laurent Jolivet mainly investigates Seismology, Subduction, Paleontology, Petrology and Shear zone. His studies deal with areas such as Neogene, Metamorphic rock and CYCLADES as well as Seismology. His Subduction research integrates issues from Slab, Geochemistry, Mantle and Lithosphere.

As part of his studies on Paleontology, Laurent Jolivet frequently links adjacent subjects like Mediterranean climate. His study in Petrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Metamorphic core complex, Continental crust, Crust, Mineralogy and Geomorphology. His biological study deals with issues like Shear, which deal with fields such as Boudinage.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (41.18%)
  • Subduction (33.33%)
  • Paleontology (33.99%)

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

  • Paleontology (33.99%)
  • Subduction (33.33%)
  • Petrology (31.37%)

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

Laurent Jolivet mainly focuses on Paleontology, Subduction, Petrology, Tectonics and Geochemistry. His is doing research in Rift, Structural basin, Metamorphism, Crust and Nappe, both of which are found in Paleontology. His Subduction research includes themes of Massif, Extensional tectonics, Mantle and Lithology.

Laurent Jolivet combines subjects such as Eclogite, Mylonite, Shear zone and Metamorphic core complex with his study of Petrology. His study looks at the relationship between Tectonics and topics such as Metamorphic rock, which overlap with CYCLADES. His studies in Shear integrate themes in fields like Overprinting, Strain partitioning, Seismology, Boudinage and Tilted block faulting.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rifted margins: Ductile deformation, boudinage, continentward-dipping normal faults and the role of the weak lower crust (59 citations)
  • Mantle Flow and Deforming Continents: From India-Asia Convergence to Pacific Subduction. (34 citations)
  • Plume-induced continental rifting and break-up in ultra-slow extension context: Insights from 3D numerical modeling (30 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Subduction

Laurent Jolivet focuses on Tectonics, Crust, Lithosphere, Subduction and Petrology. He has included themes like Geochemistry and Metamorphic rock in his Tectonics study. His Crust research incorporates themes from Rift and Extensional tectonics.

As part of one scientific family, Laurent Jolivet deals mainly with the area of Lithosphere, narrowing it down to issues related to the Metamorphic core complex, and often Basin and range topography, Geothermal gradient, Cataclastic rock and Magmatism. His Subduction research includes elements of Slab and Mantle. His work carried out in the field of Petrology brings together such families of science as Seawater, Quartz, Shear zone and Overburden pressure.
