Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Subduction
  • Seismology

Saskia Goes mainly focuses on Subduction, Mantle, Geophysics, Tectonics and Lithosphere. Her Subduction research is within the category of Seismology. Her Wadsleyite study in the realm of Mantle connects with subjects such as Anharmonicity.

Her studies deal with areas such as Shear and Seismic velocity as well as Geophysics. Her Lithosphere research includes elements of Seismic tomography and S-wave. Her Slab window research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Slab, Volcanic arc, Mantle convection and Transition zone.

Her most cited work include:

  • Shallow mantle temperatures under Europe from P and S wave tomography (425 citations)
  • Inferring upper-mantle temperatures from seismic velocities (400 citations)
  • Thermal structure of the North American uppermost mantle inferred from seismic tomography (241 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Seismology, Subduction, Mantle, Geophysics and Lithosphere. Saskia Goes interconnects Slab and Plate tectonics in the investigation of issues within Subduction. Saskia Goes has included themes like Slab suction and Slab pull in her Slab study.

The various areas that Saskia Goes examines in her Mantle study include Igneous rock, Petrology, Transition zone and Hotspot. Her study in Geophysics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mantle plume and Mantle convection. Lithosphere is the subject of her research, which falls under Tectonics.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Seismology (39.52%)
  • Subduction (34.73%)
  • Mantle (34.13%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Subduction (34.73%)
  • Seismology (39.52%)
  • Petrology (17.96%)

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

Saskia Goes mainly focuses on Subduction, Seismology, Petrology, Mantle and Lithosphere. The concepts of her Subduction study are interwoven with issues in Slab and Plate tectonics. The Volcanology, Tectonophysics and Geophysical imaging research she does as part of her general Seismology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Rayleigh wave and Martinique, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Her Petrology research incorporates themes from Volcanic arc, Transition zone and Oceanic crust. Her Mantle study focuses on Seismic tomography in particular. Her Lithosphere study is concerned with Tectonics in general.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Earthquakes track subduction fluids from slab source to mantle wedge sink (23 citations)
  • Seismic evidence for depth-dependent metasomatism in cratons (17 citations)
  • The role of arc migration in the development of the Lesser Antilles: A new tectonic model for the Cenozoic evolution of the eastern Caribbean (16 citations)

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

  • Subduction
  • Plate tectonics
  • Seismology

Her main research concerns Mantle, Petrology, Subduction, Slab and Lithosphere. Her Mantle study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Seismology, Mantle plume and Oceanic crust. Her studies link Seismic tomography with Seismology.

She works mostly in the field of Petrology, limiting it down to topics relating to Transition zone and, in certain cases, Oceanic plateau and Volcano. Subduction connects with themes related to Plate tectonics in her study. Her Lithosphere study frequently links to related topics such as Geothermal gradient.
