Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Volcano
  • Subduction

His scientific interests lie mostly in Magnetotellurics, Crust, Seismology, Petrology and Electrical resistivity and conductivity. The various areas that Martyn Unsworth examines in his Magnetotellurics study include Lithosphere and Partial melting. His work deals with themes such as Plateau, Tectonics and Magma, which intersect with Crust.

He works in the field of Seismology, focusing on Hypocenter in particular. His Petrology research incorporates themes from Suture, Mantle wedge, Olivine and Far East. His study looks at the relationship between Electrical resistivity and conductivity and topics such as Induced seismicity, which overlap with San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth and Active fault.

His most cited work include:

  • Partially Molten Middle Crust Beneath Southern Tibet: Synthesis of Project INDEPTH Results (939 citations)
  • Crustal deformation of the eastern Tibetan plateau revealed by magnetotelluric imaging (376 citations)
  • Detection of widespread fluids in the Tibetan crust by magnetotelluric studies. (326 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Magnetotellurics, Seismology, Crust, Petrology and Lithosphere. His biological study deals with issues like Suture, which deal with fields such as Collision zone. His Crust research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mantle and Terrane.

His Petrology research integrates issues from Volcano, Rift, Transition zone, Geothermal gradient and Geomorphology. His Electrical resistivity and conductivity research includes themes of San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth and Mineralogy. His work carried out in the field of Induced seismicity brings together such families of science as Earthquake rupture and Active fault.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Magnetotellurics (65.03%)
  • Seismology (50.92%)
  • Crust (31.29%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Magnetotellurics (65.03%)
  • Seismology (50.92%)
  • Lithosphere (20.86%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Magnetotellurics, Seismology, Lithosphere, Subduction and Magma. His Magnetotellurics study introduces a deeper knowledge of Electrical resistivity and conductivity. His research on Seismology often connects related areas such as 3 d inversion.

His studies deal with areas such as Suture and Simple shear as well as Lithosphere. His study on Volcanic arc is often connected to Electrical structure as part of broader study in Subduction. His research investigates the connection between Magma and topics such as Silicic that intersect with issues in Rhyolite, Hydrothermal circulation, Lava and Volcanic hazards.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Giant magmatic water reservoirs at mid-crustal depth inferred from electrical conductivity and the growth of the continental crust (47 citations)
  • Imaging the Laguna del Maule Volcanic Field, central Chile using magnetotellurics: Evidence for crustal melt regions laterally-offset from surface vents and lava flows (26 citations)
  • Synthesis: PLUTONS: Investigating the relationship between Pluton Growth and Volcanism in the Central Andes (21 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Volcano
  • Subduction

His main research concerns Magnetotellurics, Seismology, Magma, Geochemistry and Crust. Magnetotellurics is a subfield of Electrical resistivity and conductivity that Martyn Unsworth investigates. His specific area of interest is Seismology, where he studies Lithosphere.

He focuses mostly in the field of Magma, narrowing it down to topics relating to Continental crust and, in certain cases, Plutonism, Pluton, Volcanic arc and Andesite. His Geochemistry study incorporates themes from Plateau and Subduction, Tectonics. Many of his studies on Crust apply to Silicic as well.
