Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Paleontology, Zircon, Gondwana and Craton. As part of his studies on Geochemistry, Márcio Martins Pimentel frequently links adjacent subjects like Proterozoic. His study in Zircon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Crust, Igneous rock and Archean.

His Gondwana research incorporates elements of Orogeny, Rift, Subduction and Paleozoic. His studies deal with areas such as Basement and Terrane as well as Orogeny. The various areas that Márcio Martins Pimentel examines in his Craton study include Back-arc basin, Suture, Sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe, Metamorphism and Mantle.

His most cited work include:

  • Neoproterozoic crustal accretion in central Brazil (263 citations)
  • The Sm-Nd isotopic method in the geochronology laboratory of the University of Brasília. (209 citations)
  • The osmium isotopic composition of convecting upper mantle deduced from ophiolite chromites (199 citations)

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

Geochemistry, Zircon, Paleontology, Craton and Provenance are his primary areas of study. His work on Petrology expands to the thematically related Geochemistry. His work in Zircon addresses issues such as Terrane, which are connected to fields such as Basement.

His research in Craton focuses on subjects like Back-arc basin, which are connected to Island arc. His Provenance research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sedimentary depositional environment, Foreland basin, Passive margin and Unconformity. His study looks at the intersection of Gondwana and topics like Orogeny with Precambrian.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (68.00%)
  • Zircon (34.22%)
  • Paleontology (22.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (68.00%)
  • Zircon (34.22%)
  • Paleontology (22.67%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Zircon, Paleontology, Provenance and Gondwana. His Geochemistry and Gneiss, Metamorphism, Mafic, Sedimentary rock and Metamorphic rock investigations all form part of his Geochemistry research activities. His work deals with themes such as Anatexis, Continental arc, Terrane and Geochronology, which intersect with Zircon.

The concepts of his Terrane study are interwoven with issues in Tonian and Rodinia, Craton. His Provenance research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sedimentary depositional environment, Island arc and Unconformity. Márcio Martins Pimentel interconnects Orogeny, Basement and Paleozoic in the investigation of issues within Gondwana.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Brasiliano collage in South America: a review (130 citations)
  • Evolução tectônica do Cinturão Dom Feliciano no Sul do Brasil: relações geológicas e geocronologia U-Pb (77 citations)
  • Paleoproterozoic crust-formation and reworking events in the Tocantins Province, central Brazil: A contribution for Atlantica supercontinent reconstruction (63 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt

Márcio Martins Pimentel focuses on Geochemistry, Zircon, Gneiss, Paleontology and Metamorphism. Geochemistry is closely attributed to Metamorphic facies in his work. In his study, Outcrop, Protolith, Mantle and Terrane is strongly linked to Crust, which falls under the umbrella field of Zircon.

His Gneiss research includes elements of Cap carbonate, Mineralogy, Ultramafic rock and Clastic rock. His Metamorphism study incorporates themes from Batholith and Geochronology. His research in Provenance tackles topics such as Back-arc basin which are related to areas like Continental collision.
