What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Basalt
- Igneous rock
- Volcano
His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Volcanic rock, Metasomatism, Partial melting and Mafic.
His work on Geochemistry deals in particular with Mantle, Olivine, Basalt, Incompatible element and Magma.
His work carried out in the field of Mantle brings together such families of science as Trace element, Mantle wedge and Oceanic crust.
His Volcanic rock research incorporates themes from Caldera and Igneous rock.
His Partial melting study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plagioclase, Trachybasalt and Magmatism.
As a member of one scientific family, Sandro Conticelli mostly works in the field of Mafic, focusing on Subduction and, on occasion, Volcanic belt and Mantle plume.
His most cited work include:
- Analogue modelling of continental extension: a review focused on the relations between the patterns of deformation and the presence of magma (243 citations)
- Petrology and geochemistry of potassic and ultrapotassic volcanism in central Italy: petrogenesis and inferences on the evolution of the mantle sources (242 citations)
- Trace elements and Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes of K-rich, shoshonitic, and calc-alkaline magmatism of the Western Mediterranean Region: Genesis of ultrapotassic to calc-alkaline magmatic associations in a post-collisional geodynamic setting (213 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Geochemistry, Volcanic rock, Mantle, Volcano and Mafic are his primary areas of study.
His study focuses on the intersection of Geochemistry and fields such as Subduction with connections in the field of Magmatism and Trace element.
His work focuses on many connections between Volcanic rock and other disciplines, such as Pyroclastic rock, that overlap with his field of interest in Silicic.
Mafic is a subfield of Petrology that Sandro Conticelli investigates.
His Metasomatism research focuses on subjects like Incompatible element, which are linked to Fractional crystallization.
His research integrates issues of Mantle wedge and Ultramafic rock in his study of Partial melting.
He most often published in these fields:
- Geochemistry (73.55%)
- Volcanic rock (25.16%)
- Mantle (19.35%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Geochemistry (73.55%)
- Subduction (14.19%)
- Mantle (19.35%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Subduction, Mantle, Wine and Soil water.
His study in the field of Volcanic rock, Metasomatism and Radiogenic nuclide also crosses realms of Uranium.
His studies deal with areas such as Basalt, Partial melting and Tectonics as well as Volcanic rock.
Sandro Conticelli combines subjects such as Molybdenum isotope and Mantle xenoliths with his study of Subduction.
Sandro Conticelli interconnects Volcano and Plate tectonics in the investigation of issues within Mantle.
His study in Mantle wedge is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pyroclastic rock and Magma.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Sub-lithospheric origin of Na-alkaline and calc-alkaline magmas in a post-collisional tectonic regime: Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes in recent monogenetic volcanism of Cappadocia, Central Turkey (15 citations)
- Tracing the 87Sr/86Sr from rocks and soils to vine and wine: An experimental study on geologic and pedologic characterisation of vineyards using radiogenic isotope of heavy elements. (13 citations)
- Heavy oxygen recycled into the lithospheric mantle. (9 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Basalt
- Igneous rock
- Volcano
Sandro Conticelli focuses on Geochemistry, Mantle wedge, Subduction, Soil water and Mantle.
Caldera and Pyroclastic rock are the primary areas of interest in his Geochemistry study.
His Mantle wedge research includes themes of Basalt, Partial melting, Volcanic rock, Isotope geochemistry and Magmatism.
His work on Volcanic arc and Oceanic crust as part of general Subduction research is frequently linked to Systematics, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Sandro Conticelli has researched Soil water in several fields, including Agriculture, Organic farming, Vine and Cultivar.
His Mantle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Felsic and Ultramafic rock.
