Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Oceanography
  • Carbon dioxide

Marta E Torres focuses on Clathrate hydrate, Methane, Hydrate Ridge, Petrology and Seafloor spreading. Her Clathrate hydrate research includes themes of Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Scientific drilling and Geomorphology. Her research in Methane focuses on subjects like Pore water pressure, which are connected to Buoyancy and Overburden.

Her Hydrate Ridge study combines topics in areas such as Seawater and Seabed. Her Petrology research integrates issues from Volumetric flow rate, Accretionary wedge, Continental margin, Fluid dynamics and Gas hydrate stability zone. She works mostly in the field of Seafloor spreading, limiting it down to topics relating to Ridge and, in certain cases, Mbsf.

Her most cited work include:

  • Gas hydrate destabilization: enhanced dewatering, benthic material turnover and large methane plumes at the Cascadia convergent margin (365 citations)
  • Authigenic carbonates from the Cascadia subduction zone and their relation to gas hydrate stability (343 citations)
  • Fluid and chemical fluxes in and out of sediments hosting methane hydrate deposits on Hydrate Ridge, OR, I: Hydrological provinces (335 citations)

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

Geochemistry, Methane, Clathrate hydrate, Oceanography and Mineralogy are her primary areas of study. Her study in Geochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cold seep and Sediment core. Her Methane research focuses on Sediment and how it relates to Sedimentary rock.

Her work carried out in the field of Clathrate hydrate brings together such families of science as Seafloor spreading, Pore water pressure and Petrology. Marta E Torres combines topics linked to Table with her work on Mineralogy. Her research in Hydrate Ridge intersects with topics in Geomorphology and Mbsf.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (32.56%)
  • Methane (26.25%)
  • Clathrate hydrate (25.58%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (32.56%)
  • Sediment core (8.64%)
  • Documentation (6.31%)

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

Marta E Torres mostly deals with Geochemistry, Sediment core, Documentation, Methane and Hikurangi Margin. Her research integrates issues of Subduction, Clathrate hydrate, Silicate and Dissolution in her study of Geochemistry. In her work, Marta E Torres performs multidisciplinary research in Clathrate hydrate and Light hydrocarbons.

Her Sediment core research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Isotopic composition and Dissolved organic carbon. The concepts of her Methane study are interwoven with issues in Sedimentation, Sediment, Environmental chemistry, Biogeochemical cycle and Arctic. In her research, Structural geology, Landslide and Pore water pressure is intimately related to Petrology, which falls under the overarching field of Hikurangi Margin.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Barium-isotopic constraints on the origin of post-Marinoan barites (16 citations)
  • Fracture-controlled fluid transport supports microbial methane-oxidizing communities at Vestnesa Ridge (15 citations)
  • Origin and transformation of light hydrocarbons ascending at an active pockmark on Vestnesa Ridge, Arctic Ocean (11 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Oceanography
  • Carbon dioxide

Her primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Methane, Sediment, Authigenic and Microbial population biology. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Forearc, Cold seep and Accretionary wedge. Her study in Methane is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sedimentation, Ridge and Arctic.

Her work deals with themes such as Biogeochemical cycle and Dissolution, which intersect with Sediment. Her studies examine the connections between Authigenic and genetics, as well as such issues in Carbonate minerals, with regards to Aragonite and Silicate. As part of her studies on Pockmark, she often connects relevant subjects like Clathrate hydrate.
