What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Basalt
- Volcano
- Igneous rock
Michael O. Garcia mainly investigates Geochemistry, Basalt, Volcano, Mantle and Incompatible element.
Geochemistry is closely attributed to Mantle wedge in his research.
His study in Basalt is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Volcanic rock, Magma chamber, Olivine and Radiogenic nuclide.
His Volcano research incorporates elements of Earth science, Seamount and Rift zone.
The Mantle study combines topics in areas such as Ocean island basalt, Oceanic crust and Mantle plume.
His Incompatible element study incorporates themes from Trace element and Subaerial.
His most cited work include:
- The Amount of Recycled Crust in Sources of Mantle-Derived Melts (858 citations)
- Primitive magmas and source characteristics of the Hawaiian plume: petrology and geochemistry of shield picrites (194 citations)
- Quantitative analysis of trace element abundances in glasses and minerals: a comparison of laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, solution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, proton microprobe and electron microprobe data (191 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Geochemistry, Volcano, Basalt, Mantle and Lava are his primary areas of study.
His biological study deals with issues like Mantle plume, which deal with fields such as Hotspot.
In his study, Seismology is inextricably linked to Rift zone, which falls within the broad field of Volcano.
Michael O. Garcia has researched Basalt in several fields, including Mineralogy, Igneous rock and Seamount.
His Mantle research incorporates themes from Trace element, Isotopes of oxygen, Crust and Oceanic crust.
