What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Geochemistry, Provenance, Sedimentary rock and Geomorphology.
His is involved in several facets of Paleontology study, as is seen by his studies on Foreland basin, Structural basin, Tectonics, Basement and Facies.
Salvatore Critelli usually deals with Foreland basin and limits it to topics linked to Paleogene and Terrane.
Salvatore Critelli combines topics linked to Petrology with his work on Geochemistry.
Within one scientific family, Salvatore Critelli focuses on topics pertaining to Illite under Provenance, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Chlorite.
His Sedimentary rock study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Volcanic rock.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (42.25%)
- Geochemistry (33.10%)
- Provenance (29.58%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Provenance, Sedimentary rock and Geomorphology.
In his study, Facies and Sedimentology is strongly linked to Sedimentary depositional environment, which falls under the umbrella field of Geochemistry.
The Provenance study combines topics in areas such as Foreland basin, Felsic, Siliciclastic and Lithic fragment, Clastic rock.
Salvatore Critelli has included themes like Metamorphic rock, Petrology, Basement and Detritus in his Lithic fragment study.
His Sedimentary rock research incorporates themes from Heavy mineral, Illite and Terrane.
The concepts of his Weathering study are interwoven with issues in Drainage basin and Massif.
Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Characterization of granitoid and gneissic weathering profiles of the Mucone River basin (Calabria, southern Italy) (54 citations)
- Provenance of Mesozoic to Cenozoic circum-Mediterranean sandstones in relation to tectonic setting (41 citations)
- Weathering profiles in granitoid rocks of the Sila Massif uplands, Calabria, southern Italy: New insights into their formation processes and rates (41 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Erosion
- Paleontology
Salvatore Critelli mainly focuses on Provenance, Sedimentary rock, Paleontology, Petrography and Weathering.
He has researched Provenance in several fields, including Felsic, Mafic and Siliciclastic.
His Sedimentary rock research incorporates elements of Foreland basin, Metamorphic rock and Illite.
Clastic rock, Diagenesis and Detritus are the subjects of his Paleontology studies.
His Petrography study deals with the bigger picture of Geochemistry.
His work is dedicated to discovering how Weathering, Massif are connected with Spheroidal weathering, Parent material, Geologic map, Geomorphology and Thematic map and other disciplines.
