Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mineral
  • Basalt

Paul D. Asimow mainly investigates Mantle, Geochemistry, Thermodynamics, Partial melting and Mineralogy. Paul D. Asimow has included themes like Flux melting, Mantle wedge, Olivine, Oceanic crust and Solidus in his Mantle study. His research in Geochemistry intersects with topics in Mantle plume and Hotspot.

His studies deal with areas such as Software package and Silicate as well as Thermodynamics. His Mineralogy research integrates issues from Perl, Subroutine and Analytical chemistry. Paul D. Asimow usually deals with Basalt and limits it to topics linked to Petrology and Mid-ocean ridge.

His most cited work include:

  • Temperatures in Ambient Mantle and Plumes: Constraints from Basalts, Picrites, and Komatiites (629 citations)
  • Algorithmic modifications extending MELTS to calculate subsolidus phase relations (554 citations)
  • Petrology of some oceanic island basalts: PRIMELT2.XLS software for primary magma calculation (332 citations)

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

Paul D. Asimow mostly deals with Geochemistry, Mantle, Thermodynamics, Mineralogy and Petrology. His is doing research in Mafic, Olivine, Basalt, Partial melting and Peridotite, both of which are found in Geochemistry. His Mantle research incorporates themes from Subduction, Oceanic crust and Solidus.

His Thermodynamics study deals with Silicate intersecting with Shock wave. Mineralogy is closely attributed to Analytical chemistry in his research. His Petrology study combines topics in areas such as Mid-ocean ridge and Crust.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (29.02%)
  • Mantle (20.11%)
  • Thermodynamics (19.54%)

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

  • Geochemistry (29.02%)
  • Olivine (10.06%)
  • Meteorite (4.89%)

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

Paul D. Asimow focuses on Geochemistry, Olivine, Meteorite, Mafic and Partial melting. His research ties Ophiolite and Geochemistry together. The study incorporates disciplines such as Basalt, Chondrite and Mineral in addition to Olivine.

His Mafic research focuses on Zircon and how it connects with Oceanic crust. His Partial melting research includes themes of Rheology, Ambient pressure, Thermodynamics, Softening and Coordination number. The concepts of his Mantle study are interwoven with issues in Neon, Isotopes of neon, Configuration entropy, Ridge and Hotspot.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Multiple Stages of Carbonation and Element Redistribution during Formation of Ultramafic-Hosted Magnesite in Neoproterozoic Ophiolites of the Arabian-Nubian Shield, Egypt (17 citations)
  • Identifying high potential zones of gold mineralization in a sub-tropical region using Landsat-8 and ASTER remote sensing data: a case study of the Ngoura-Colomines goldfield, Eastern Cameroon (9 citations)
  • Geochemistry of middle-late Mesozoic mafic intrusions in the eastern North China Craton: New insights on lithospheric thinning and decratonization (9 citations)

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

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mineral
  • Igneous rock

His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Mantle, Igneous rock, Mafic and Olivine. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sericite and Oceanic crust. The various areas that Paul D. Asimow examines in his Mantle study include Rheology, Configuration entropy, Softening, Ultramafic rock and Ophiolite.

Paul D. Asimow combines subjects such as Amphibole, Growth rate, Thin section, Diorite and Analytical chemistry with his study of Igneous rock. Basalt is closely connected to Petrology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Pyroxene. His study looks at the relationship between Basalt and topics such as Coordination number, which overlap with Thermodynamics.
