What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Oceanography
- Sedimentary rock
- Plate tectonics
His primary areas of study are Oceanography, Paleontology, Meteorite, Terrace and Continental margin.
The study of Oceanography is intertwined with the study of Continental drift in a number of ways.
In general Paleontology study, his work on Plate tectonics often relates to the realm of Pangaea, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
His research integrates issues of Seismology, Geochemistry, Impact crater and Geophysics in his study of Meteorite.
Robert S. Dietz interconnects Continental shelf, Deposition, Lens, Geosyncline and Turbidity current in the investigation of issues within Continental margin.
His Seafloor spreading research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Continental divide, Marine geology, Seabed and Oceanic basin.
His most cited work include:
- Continent and Ocean Basin Evolution by Spreading of the Sea Floor (442 citations)
- Reconstruction of Pangaea: Breakup and dispersion of continents, Permian to Present (425 citations)
- Sudbury Structure as an Astrobleme (234 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Oceanography, Paleontology, Meteorite, Impact crater and Geochemistry.
His Oceanography study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Oceanic basin.
His Continental drift, Tectonics and Sedimentary rock study in the realm of Paleontology connects with subjects such as Pangaea.
His research in Meteorite is mostly concerned with Shatter cone.
His Impact crater study focuses on Impact structure in particular.
Robert S. Dietz focuses mostly in the field of Continental shelf, narrowing it down to topics relating to Continental margin and, in certain cases, Terrace and Cretaceous.
He most often published in these fields:
- Oceanography (29.85%)
- Paleontology (21.64%)
- Meteorite (18.66%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1974-2016)?
- Geochemistry (13.43%)
- Impact crater (14.18%)
- Meteorite (18.66%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Robert S. Dietz mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Impact crater, Meteorite, Impact structure and Oceanography.
His Geochemistry study incorporates themes from Crooked Creek and Bedrock, Geomorphology.
His work carried out in the field of Impact crater brings together such families of science as Tectonics and Earth science.
His Impact structure research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sedimentary rock, Dome, Paleontology and Breccia.
Paleontology is closely attributed to Geophysics in his study.
His work on Marine geology and Seabed as part of general Oceanography research is often related to Manganese and Sky, thus linking different fields of science.
Between 1974 and 2016, his most popular works were:
- IMPACT AND IMPACT-LIKE STRUCTURES IN ALGERIA PART I FOUR BOWL-SHAPED DEPRESSIONS (30 citations)
- El'gygtgyn: Probably world's largest meteorite crater (27 citations)
- ELGYGYTGYN CRATER, SIBERIA: PROBABLE SOURCE OF AUSTRALASIAN TEKTITE FIELD (and Bediasites from Popigai) (23 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Oceanography
- Volcano
His primary areas of investigation include Impact crater, Meteorite, Geochemistry, Impact structure and Paleontology.
Meteorite connects with themes related to Lineation in his study.
His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Tektite, Mesozoic, Loess and Terrane.
His Impact structure research integrates issues from Sedimentary rock, Dome and Breccia.
His work in Paleontology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Geophysics.
The Tectonics study combines topics in areas such as Volcano, Quaternary and Earth science.
