Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Plate tectonics
  • Volcano

His primary areas of investigation include Mantle, Geochemistry, Basalt, Mid-ocean ridge and Oceanic crust. His work on Subduction expands to the thematically related Mantle. His is involved in several facets of Geochemistry study, as is seen by his studies on Magma chamber and Partial melting.

In his research on the topic of Basalt, Mineralogy and Incompatible element is strongly related with Trace element. His Mid-ocean ridge research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Volcano, Volcanic rock and Igneous rock. His work deals with themes such as Fractional crystallization and Petrology, which intersect with Igneous rock.

His most cited work include:

  • Regionally distinctive sources of depleted MORB: Evidence from trace elements and H2O (329 citations)
  • Magmatic and amagmatic seafloor generation at the ultraslow-spreading Gakkel ridge, Arctic Ocean (303 citations)
  • Mantle peridotites from continental rifts to ocean basins to subduction zones (273 citations)

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

Peter J. Michael mostly deals with Geochemistry, Mantle, Basalt, Petrology and Mid-ocean ridge. His study focuses on the intersection of Geochemistry and fields such as Lau Basin with connections in the field of Volcanic arc. His work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Subduction and Oceanic crust.

His Basalt study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Magma chamber, Trace element and Mineralogy. His Petrology study combines topics in areas such as Lava and Magma. His research integrates issues of Seafloor spreading, The arctic, Igneous rock and Crust in his study of Mid-ocean ridge.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (50.38%)
  • Mantle (40.46%)
  • Basalt (30.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Mantle (40.46%)
  • Geochemistry (50.38%)
  • Mid-ocean ridge (20.61%)

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

Peter J. Michael spends much of his time researching Mantle, Geochemistry, Mid-ocean ridge, Basalt and Paleontology. His work on Partial melting as part of general Mantle study is frequently linked to Population, bridging the gap between disciplines. His studies in Partial melting integrate themes in fields like Transform fault, Tectonics and Peridotite.

He studies Trace element, a branch of Geochemistry. His Basalt research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Volcano, Ridge and Petrology. His work in Subduction addresses subjects such as Seafloor spreading, which are connected to disciplines such as Crust.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The behavior and concentration of CO2 in the suboceanic mantle: Inferences from undegassed ocean ridge and ocean island basalts (50 citations)
  • An isotopically distinct Zealandia?Antarctic mantle domain in the Southern Ocean (16 citations)
  • Spatial and Temporal Scale of Mantle Enrichment at the Endeavour Segment, Juan de Fuca Ridge (16 citations)

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

  • Basalt
  • Plate tectonics
  • Volcano

Peter J. Michael spends much of his time researching Mantle, Basalt, Geochemistry, Trace element and Paleontology. The Mantle study combines topics in areas such as Oceanography, Ridge and Volcanism. His research on Ridge frequently links to adjacent areas such as Volcano.

His Volcanism study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mantle flow, Gondwana and Upwelling. His Mid-ocean ridge research includes themes of Peridotite, Petrology and Partial melting, Incompatible element. His Melt inclusions study incorporates themes from Primitive mantle, Mantle plume and Large igneous province.
