Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt
  • Geochemistry

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Continental crust, Mantle, Craton and Crust. Geochemistry is frequently linked to Lithosphere in her study. Her Continental crust study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Adakite, Oceanic crust, Isotopes of magnesium, Weathering and Lithology.

As a member of one scientific family, Roberta L. Rudnick mostly works in the field of Oceanic crust, focusing on Continental margin and, on occasion, Isostasy. Her work deals with themes such as Eclogite and Mantle wedge, which intersect with Mantle. Her Crust research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Felsic and Mafic.

Her most cited work include:

  • Composition of the Continental Crust (4191 citations)
  • Nature and composition of the continental crust: A lower crustal perspective (2325 citations)
  • 3.01 – Composition of the Continental Crust (1829 citations)

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

Roberta L. Rudnick mainly investigates Geochemistry, Continental crust, Crust, Mantle and Xenolith. Her work in Geochemistry covers topics such as Craton which are related to areas like Eclogite. Her Continental crust research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Weathering, Mafic, Loess, Underplating and Oceanic crust.

Roberta L. Rudnick has included themes like Geoneutrino and Radiogenic nuclide in her Crust study. Her work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Slab and Lithosphere, Mantle wedge. The concepts of her Xenolith study are interwoven with issues in Trace element, Granulite, Kimberlite and Mineralogy.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (89.11%)
  • Continental crust (37.62%)
  • Crust (31.19%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (89.11%)
  • Continental crust (37.62%)
  • Archean (26.73%)

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

Geochemistry, Continental crust, Archean, Mantle and Crust are her primary areas of study. Her Geochemistry study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Craton. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Orogeny, Lithosphere, Kimberlite and Mozambique Belt.

In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Continental crust, Pyrite and Authigenic is strongly linked to Great Oxygenation Event. Her study involves Peridotite and Xenolith, a branch of Mantle. Roberta L. Rudnick works mostly in the field of Crust, limiting it down to topics relating to Diamictite and, in certain cases, Mafic, Felsic, Provenance and Ultramafic rock.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Lithium Isotope Geochemistry (65 citations)
  • The behavior of chalcophile elements during magmatic differentiation as observed in Kilauea Iki lava lake, Hawaii (35 citations)
  • Multidisciplinary Constraints on the Abundance of Diamond and Eclogite in the Cratonic Lithosphere (22 citations)

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

  • Igneous rock
  • Basalt
  • Geochemistry

Roberta L. Rudnick mostly deals with Geochemistry, Continental crust, Mineralogy, Igneous rock and Archean. Her work on Weathering and Mantle as part of general Geochemistry research is frequently linked to Silicate, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her studies in Weathering integrate themes in fields like Kaolinite, Isotopes of potassium, Isotope fractionation and Regolith.

Continental crust is a subfield of Crust that Roberta L. Rudnick explores. Her research integrates issues of Analytical chemistry and Jack Hills, Hadean, Zircon in her study of Mineralogy. Her studies deal with areas such as Ilmenite, Volcanic glass and Titanite as well as Igneous rock.
