What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Plate tectonics
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Craton, Gondwana and Zircon.
His Geochemistry research includes elements of Granulite and Petrology.
His studies deal with areas such as Basement, Underplating and Archean as well as Craton.
His research in Gondwana intersects with topics in Subduction and Rift.
His Zircon study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Siliciclastic, Ordovician, Provenance, Pluton and Geochronology.
His work carried out in the field of Rodinia brings together such families of science as Precambrian and Supercontinent.
His most cited work include:
- Archean blocks and their boundaries in the North China Craton: lithological, geochemical, structural and P–T path constraints and tectonic evolution (1308 citations)
- Review of global 2.1-1.8 Ga orogens: implications for a pre-Rodinia supercontinent (1072 citations)
- Precambrian geology of China (814 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Zircon, Craton and Gondwana.
His research investigates the connection between Geochemistry and topics such as Subduction that intersect with issues in Plate tectonics and Mantle.
His Paleozoic, Rodinia, Provenance, Detritus and Laurentia investigations are all subjects of Paleontology research.
As part of the same scientific family, Peter A. Cawood usually focuses on Zircon, concentrating on Metamorphism and intersecting with Metamorphic rock.
In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Craton, Volcanic rock is strongly linked to Petrology.
His work deals with themes such as Orogeny and Rift, which intersect with Gondwana.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (73.58%)
- Paleontology (52.40%)
- Zircon (55.24%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Geochemistry (73.58%)
- Zircon (55.24%)
- Craton (40.83%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Peter A. Cawood mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Zircon, Craton, Paleontology and Archean.
His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Subduction, Gondwana and Terrane.
Peter A. Cawood interconnects Partial melting, Provenance, Metamorphism, Supercontinent and Magmatism in the investigation of issues within Zircon.
His research integrates issues of Sedimentary basin and Basement in his study of Craton.
In the subject of general Paleontology, his work in Sedimentary rock and Continental arc is often linked to South china, Arc and Collision, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His Archean course of study focuses on Lithosphere and Early Earth and Petrology.
