- Sedimentary rock
- Tectonics
Marc Fournier mostly deals with Seismology, Seafloor spreading, Plate tectonics, Holocene and Physical geography.
His Oceanic crust, Rift, Fault, Transtension and Subduction investigations are all subjects of Seismology research.
Within one scientific family, Marc Fournier focuses on topics pertaining to Neogene under Fault, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Sinistral and dextral.
Marc Fournier combines subjects such as Transform fault, Fracture zone, Indian ocean, Mid-ocean ridge and Triple junction with his study of Plate tectonics.
His study in Holocene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Peat, Climate change, Pleistocene and Vegetation.
His work carried out in the field of Physical geography brings together such families of science as Glacial period, Forestry and Radiocarbon dating.
His most cited work include:
- Japan Sea, opening history and mechanism: A synthesis (374 citations)
- Kinematics, topography, shortening, and extrusion in the India‐Eurasia collision (233 citations)
- Mise en évidence de quatre phases d'ouverture de la forêt dense dans le Sud-Est de l'Amazonie au cours des 60 000 dernières années : première comparaison avec d'autres régions tropicales (185 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Seismology, Paleontology, Subduction, Fracture zone and Plate tectonics.
His Seismology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Seafloor spreading.
His Seafloor spreading study combines topics in areas such as Mid-ocean ridge and Oceanic crust.
Marc Fournier has researched Subduction in several fields, including Peridotite and Geochemistry, Seamount.
His Fracture zone research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Active fault, Strike-slip tectonics, Triple junction, Geomorphology and Ridge.
His Triple junction study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Divergent boundary and Indian ocean.
He most often published in these fields:
- Seismology (60.32%)
- Paleontology (33.33%)
- Subduction (23.02%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Subduction, Seismology, Paleontology, Suture and Geochemistry.
His Subduction research integrates issues from Lithosphere, Petrology, Peridotite, Seamount and Ophiolite.
His Seismology study deals with Cruise intersecting with Ridge.
The various areas that Marc Fournier examines in his Paleontology study include Triple junction and Fracture zone.
His research in Triple junction intersects with topics in Indian ocean, Indus, Late Miocene, Echo sounding and Geological evolution.
His Fracture zone research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Transform fault, Ridge, Plate tectonics and Pull apart basin.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Neogene to Present paleostress field in Eastern Iran (Sistan belt) and implications for regional geodynamics (14 citations)
- Tectonic slicing and mixing processes along the subduction interface: The Sistan example (Eastern Iran) (12 citations)
- No large earthquakes in fully exposed subducted seamount (11 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Plate tectonics
- Sedimentary rock
- Subduction
Marc Fournier mainly focuses on Subduction, Seamount, Seismology, Paleontology and Suture.
His Seamount research focuses on subjects like Massif, which are linked to Metamorphism and Seafloor spreading.
His work in the fields of Fault overlaps with other areas such as Clockwise.
His study focuses on the intersection of Suture and fields such as Basalt with connections in the field of Mafic, Radiolarite and Eclogite.
His Ophiolite research incorporates elements of Transform fault, Fracture zone, Forearc, Island arc and Paleogene.
His Cretaceous research includes elements of Ridge and Lithosphere.
