Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Tectonics
  • Sedimentary rock

Paleontology, Tectonics, Seismology, Clockwise and Shear are his primary areas of study. His works in Sedimentary rock, Paleogene, Continental margin and Foreland basin are all subjects of inquiry into Paleontology. Peter R. Cobbold combines subjects such as Source rock and Cretaceous with his study of Sedimentary rock.

His Tectonics research incorporates elements of Kinematics, Sill, Crust, Quaternary and Compression. His work in Seismology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Structural basin. His study in Clockwise is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Paleomagnetism and Sinistral and dextral.

His most cited work include:

  • Some tectonic consequences of fluid overpressures and seepage forces as demonstrated by sandbox modelling (128 citations)
  • Relative sea-level fall since the last interglacial stage: Are coasts uplifting worldwide? (120 citations)
  • Paleogene building of the Bolivian Orocline: Tectonic restoration of the central Andes in 2‐D map view (112 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Tectonics, Seismology, Geomorphology and Geometry. His studies in Cretaceous, Structural basin, Foreland basin, Continental margin and Neogene are all subfields of Paleontology research. His research investigates the connection between Tectonics and topics such as Crust that intersect with problems in Brittleness.

His Seismology research includes elements of Paleomagnetism, Petrology and Clockwise. His study focuses on the intersection of Geomorphology and fields such as Subduction with connections in the field of Plate tectonics. His Geometry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Shearing, Fold, Simple shear, Shear zone and Slip.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (30.50%)
  • Tectonics (23.40%)
  • Seismology (21.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Paleontology (30.50%)
  • Continental margin (12.06%)
  • Petrology (12.06%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Continental margin, Petrology, Seismology and Tectonics. Paleogene, Cretaceous, Rift, Inversion and Structural basin are the core of his Paleontology study. His work carried out in the field of Continental margin brings together such families of science as Seafloor spreading, Ridge, Passive margin and Deformation.

His studies deal with areas such as Hydraulic fracturing, Overburden, Fracture and Source rock as well as Petrology. His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lateral shear and Submarine pipeline. His Tectonics study incorporates themes from Geochemistry and Sill.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Relative sea-level fall since the last interglacial stage: Are coasts uplifting worldwide? (120 citations)
  • Episodic burial and exhumation in NE Brazil after opening of the South Atlantic (84 citations)
  • Post‐breakup tectonics in southeast Brazil from thermochronological data and combined inverse‐forward thermal history modeling (70 citations)
