Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Igneous rock

His main research concerns Geochemistry, Metamorphic rock, Metamorphism, Geochronology and Paleontology. His Geochemistry research incorporates elements of Petrology and Pluton. His Metamorphic rock study focuses mostly on Main Central Thrust, Leucogranite and Gneiss.

His Metamorphism study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Eclogite, Semail Ophiolite, Allanite, Geomorphology and Ophiolite. His work deals with themes such as Uranium and Analytical chemistry, which intersect with Geochronology. Randall R. Parrish has researched Zircon in several fields, including Batholith and Mantle.

His most cited work include:

  • U–Pb dating of monazite and its application to geological problems (762 citations)
  • Timing of India‐Asia collision: Geological, biostratigraphic, and palaeomagnetic constraints (431 citations)
  • Tectonic evolution of the central Annapurna Range, Nepalese Himalayas (425 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Zircon, Geochronology, Metamorphism and Metamorphic rock. His Geochemistry research includes themes of Granulite and Proterozoic. His research investigates the link between Zircon and topics such as Batholith that cross with problems in Magmatism.

His research in Geochronology focuses on subjects like Mineralogy, which are connected to Analytical chemistry. His study looks at the intersection of Metamorphism and topics like Semail Ophiolite with Continental margin. Randall R. Parrish interconnects Shear zone and Geomorphology in the investigation of issues within Metamorphic rock.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (76.53%)
  • Zircon (42.96%)
  • Geochronology (35.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (76.53%)
  • Zircon (42.96%)
  • Geochronology (35.74%)

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

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Zircon, Geochronology, Metamorphic rock and Tectonics. The concepts of his Geochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Syntaxis and Shear zone. The various areas that Randall R. Parrish examines in his Zircon study include Cenozoic, Sedimentary rock, Detritus, Leucogranite and Neogene.

His work deals with themes such as Ophiolite, Mineralogy, Physical geography, Greenschist and Precambrian, which intersect with Geochronology. In Metamorphic rock, Randall R. Parrish works on issues like Monazite, which are connected to Metamorphism, Partial melting, Petrology and Inclusion. Metamorphism is a subfield of Paleontology that Randall R. Parrish studies.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Metrology and traceability of U-Pb isotope dilution geochronology (EARTHTIME Tracer Calibration Part I) (200 citations)
  • Metrology and traceability of U-Pb isotope dilution geochronology (EARTHTIME Tracer Calibration Part I) (200 citations)
  • Large rivers and orogens: The evolution of the Yarlung Tsangpo–Irrawaddy system and the eastern Himalayan syntaxis (99 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Igneous rock

Geochemistry, Zircon, Geochronology, Cenozoic and Mineralogy are his primary areas of study. As part of his studies on Geochemistry, Randall R. Parrish often connects relevant areas like Ophiolite. His Zircon study incorporates themes from Subduction, Suture, Cretaceous, Gabbro and Continental margin.

His Geochronology research includes themes of Igneous rock, Crustal recycling, Mantle, Continental crust and Leucogranite. His Cenozoic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sedimentary rock and Erosion. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in TRACER, Isotope dilution and Analytical chemistry.
