Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Volcano
  • Basalt

Piergiorgio Scarlato focuses on Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Volcano, Magma and Explosive eruption. His Mineralogy research integrates issues from Quenching, Basalt, Silicic and Analytical chemistry. His Geochemistry research focuses on subjects like Earth science, which are linked to Geochronology.

Volcano is a primary field of his research addressed under Seismology. The various areas that Piergiorgio Scarlato examines in his Magma study include Natural and Volcanism. His research integrates issues of Volcanic ash and Explosive material in his study of Explosive eruption.

His most cited work include:

  • Conduit processes during the July-August 2001 explosive activity of Mt. Etna (Italy) : inferences from glass chemistry and crystal size distribution of ash particles (130 citations)
  • Solubility of H2O and CO2 in ultrapotassic melts at 1200 and 1250 °C and pressure from 50 to 500 MPa (96 citations)
  • Monitoring the explosive activity of the July–August 2001 eruption of Mt. Etna (Italy) by ash characterization (92 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Volcano, Seismology, Geochemistry, Petrology and Mineralogy. His work investigates the relationship between Volcano and topics such as Explosive material that intersect with problems in Explosive eruption. His study in Strombolian eruption and Volcanology is carried out as part of his Seismology studies.

His Earth science research extends to Geochemistry, which is thematically connected. His Mineralogy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Crystallization, Basalt, Volcanic ash and Analytical chemistry. Magma and Volcanism are commonly linked in his work.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Volcano (37.14%)
  • Seismology (21.22%)
  • Geochemistry (21.22%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Volcano (37.14%)
  • Petrology (18.37%)
  • Magma (17.96%)

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

His main research concerns Volcano, Petrology, Magma, Geochemistry and Basalt. His studies in Volcano integrate themes in fields like Geophysics and Mafic. His study in Magma is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pyroclastic rock and Explosive material.

Within one scientific family, Piergiorgio Scarlato focuses on topics pertaining to Multispectral image under Explosive material, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Mineralogy. His Geochemistry research incorporates elements of Crater morphology and Crystal. His Basalt research includes themes of Spinel, Magmatism and Phenocryst, Volcanic rock.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sector-zoned clinopyroxene as a recorder of magma history, eruption triggers, and ascent rates (40 citations)
  • An integrated P-T-H2O-lattice strain model to quantify the role of clinopyroxene fractionation on REE+Y and HFSE patterns of mafic alkaline magmas: Application to eruptions at Mt. Etna (28 citations)
  • The 2011–2012 paroxysmal eruptions at Mt. Etna volcano: Insights on the vertically zoned plumbing system (16 citations)

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

  • Thermodynamics
  • Volcano
  • Basalt

Piergiorgio Scarlato mainly investigates Volcano, Geochemistry, Mafic, Phenocryst and Fractional crystallization. His research in the fields of Volcanic ash overlaps with other disciplines such as Particle. His work in the fields of Geochemistry, such as Magma and Ultramafic rock, overlaps with other areas such as Hornblende, Anthophyllite and Actinolite.

His work in Mafic covers topics such as Trace element which are related to areas like Igneous rock. His Phenocryst research incorporates themes from Crystallization and Basalt. His study on Fractional crystallization also encompasses disciplines like

  • Olivine that intertwine with fields like Scoria,
  • Lava that connect with fields like Seismometer.
