Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Subduction
  • Plate tectonics
  • Thermodynamics

Peter E. van Keken mostly deals with Subduction, Geophysics, Mantle, Mantle wedge and Slab. The Geophysics study combines topics in areas such as Petrology and Oceanic crust. His Petrology research incorporates elements of Crustal recycling and Adakite.

His study ties his expertise on Transition zone together with the subject of Mantle. Peter E. van Keken interconnects Forearc, Volcanic arc and Underplating in the investigation of issues within Mantle wedge. Peter E. van Keken has researched Slab in several fields, including Mechanics and Wedge.

His most cited work include:

  • The global range of subduction zone thermal models (776 citations)
  • Subduction factory: 4. Depth-dependent flux of H2O from subducting slabs worldwide (497 citations)
  • High‐resolution models of subduction zones: Implications for mineral dehydration reactions and the transport of water into the deep mantle (366 citations)

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

Peter E. van Keken focuses on Mantle, Geophysics, Subduction, Mantle convection and Slab. His Mantle research integrates issues from Mantle wedge, Transition zone, Plume, Basalt and Mantle plume. He combines subjects such as Volcanic arc and Underplating with his study of Mantle wedge.

His work investigates the relationship between Geophysics and topics such as Mechanics that intersect with problems in Scaling and Meteorology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Petrology and Crust. His Slab study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Induced seismicity, Shear wave splitting, Plate tectonics and Slab window.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mantle (62.16%)
  • Geophysics (55.41%)
  • Subduction (43.24%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2018)?

  • Subduction (43.24%)
  • Geophysics (55.41%)
  • Mantle (62.16%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Subduction, Geophysics, Mantle, Slab and Petrology. His Subduction study is concerned with Seismology in general. His Geophysics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Thermal and Mantle convection.

His research in Mantle intersects with topics in Basalt and Mantle wedge. In his research, Metamorphic rock, Seismometer and Intermediate depth is intimately related to Induced seismicity, which falls under the overarching field of Slab. The concepts of his Petrology study are interwoven with issues in Arc and Peridotite.

Between 2014 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Origin of geochemical mantle components: Role of subduction filter (31 citations)
  • Slab temperature controls on the Tonga double seismic zone and slab mantle dehydration. (20 citations)
  • Origin of geochemical mantle components: Role of spreading ridges and thermal evolution of mantle (16 citations)

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

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanics
  • Plate tectonics

Seismology, Geophysics, Subduction, Hotspot and Transition zone are his primary areas of study. His Geophysics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Earth's internal heat budget and Petrology. His Subduction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Metamorphic rock, Seismometer, Seismic zone, Slab and Seismic belt.

His studies in Hotspot integrate themes in fields like Planetary differentiation, Mantle wedge, Mantle convection, Crustal recycling and Geochemistry. His work in Transition zone is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Adakite. His research on Induced seismicity often connects related topics like Mantle.
