Rolf L. Romer has researched Mineralogy in several fields, including Mineralization, Hydrothermal circulation, Fractionation, Analytical chemistry and Zircon.
As a part of the same scientific study, Rolf L. Romer usually deals with the Magmatism, concentrating on Proterozoic and frequently concerns with Baltic Shield, Mineral, Pegmatite and Crust.
His Lithosphere research includes elements of Subduction and Volcanic rock.
His most cited work include:

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Mantle, Mineralogy, Magmatism and Paleontology.
Zircon, Metamorphic rock, Mafic, Radiogenic nuclide and Metamorphism are among the areas of Geochemistry where Rolf L. Romer concentrates his study.
Rolf L. Romer combines subjects such as Petrology and Partial melting with his study of Zircon.
His research in Mantle intersects with topics in Subduction, Lithosphere, Mantle wedge and Basalt.
His Mineralogy study combines topics in areas such as Fractionation, Hydrothermal circulation and Analytical chemistry.
His Gondwana research includes elements of Orogeny and Paleozoic.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (80.49%)
- Mantle (19.51%)
- Mineralogy (12.68%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Geochemistry (80.49%)
- Zircon (11.71%)
- Paleontology (11.71%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Rolf L. Romer mainly investigates Geochemistry, Zircon, Paleontology, Protolith and Mantle.
His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Subduction, Hydrothermal circulation and Magmatism.
The Subduction study which covers Basalt that intersects with Rift.
His study on Zircon also encompasses disciplines like
- Mafic together with Igneous rock,
- Precambrian which intersects with area such as Provenance, Basement, Craton and Lithosphere,
- Geochronology that intertwine with fields like Archean, Crustal recycling, Carboniferous, Pluton and Petrology.
His studies in Mantle integrate themes in fields like Crust and Asthenosphere.
His work carried out in the field of Gondwana brings together such families of science as Sedimentary rock, Orogeny, Ordovician and Paleozoic.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- The pre-orogenic detrital zircon record of the Peri-Gondwanan crust (50 citations)
- From a bipartite Gondwanan shelf to an arcuate Variscan belt: The early Paleozoic evolution of northern Peri-Gondwana (32 citations)
- Post-collisional Potassic–Ultrapotassic Magmatism of the Variscan Orogen: Implications for Mantle Metasomatism during Continental Subduction (30 citations)
