What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Basalt
- Volcano
- Igneous rock
His primary areas of study are Flood basalt, Mantle plume, Paleontology, Mantle and Geochemistry.
His Mantle plume study incorporates themes from Fossil evidence and Earth science.
As part of his studies on Paleontology, Raphaël Pik frequently links adjacent subjects like Plateau.
His Mantle research incorporates themes from Lithosphere, Mantle wedge, Transition zone, Basalt and Hotspot.
The various areas that Raphaël Pik examines in his Basalt study include Trace element, Phenocryst and Radiogenic nuclide.
His work deals with themes such as Late Miocene, Craton, Cenozoic and Terrane, which intersect with Zircon.
His most cited work include:
- Timing of the Ethiopian flood basalt event and implications for plume birth and global change (501 citations)
- Isotopic and trace element signatures of Ethiopian flood basalts: evidence for plume–lithosphere interactions (221 citations)
- Late Cenozoic evolution of the central Longmen Shan, eastern Tibet: Insight from (U-Th)/He thermochronometry (172 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Raphaël Pik mainly focuses on Paleontology, Geochemistry, Rift, Tectonics and Zircon.
His study on Geochemistry is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Mantle plume.
His studies deal with areas such as Continental margin, Lithosphere, Petrology and Crust as well as Rift.
His Tectonics research integrates issues from Sedimentary rock and Structural basin.
While the research belongs to areas of Basalt, Raphaël Pik spends his time largely on the problem of Mineralogy, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Spallation and Cosmogenic nuclide.
He regularly ties together related areas like Flood basalt in his Mantle studies.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (38.85%)
- Geochemistry (28.78%)
- Rift (25.18%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Geochemistry (28.78%)
- Paleontology (38.85%)
- Zircon (12.23%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Zircon, Petrology and Rift.
In the field of Geochemistry, his study on Ultramafic rock, Mantle xenoliths and Radiogenic Isotopes overlaps with subjects such as Pedogenesis.
His work on Foreland basin, Section and Extensional tectonics as part of general Paleontology research is frequently linked to Early phase and Convergence, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His studies in Zircon integrate themes in fields like Apatite, Greenschist, Basement and Lithosphere.
The concepts of his Petrology study are interwoven with issues in Rhyolite and Magma.
His Rift study deals with the bigger picture of Tectonics.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Titanium isotopes as a tracer for the plume or island arc affinity of felsic rocks. (26 citations)
- Thermochronological Evidence of Early Orogenesis, Eastern Pyrenees, France (22 citations)
- Shortening of the axial zone, pyrenees: Shortening sequence, upper crustal mylonites and crustal strength (9 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Basalt
- Volcano
- Sedimentary rock
Raphaël Pik focuses on Geochemistry, Paleontology, Christian ministry, Government and Mesozoic.
His study in Geochemistry focuses on Lava dome, Lava, Explosive eruption, Scoria and Basalt.
Christian ministry is connected with European union, Cenozoic, Training programme and Thermochronology in his study.
