Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics
  • Basalt

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Subduction, Coesite, Metamorphic rock and Zircon. His work carried out in the field of Geochemistry brings together such families of science as Eclogite and Terrane. Many of his studies on Subduction apply to Plate tectonics as well.

His Metamorphic rock research integrates issues from Mineralogy, Diopside and Calcite. His studies deal with areas such as Yilgarn Craton, Petrology and Crust as well as Zircon. His Paleontology research incorporates themes from Geomorphology and Isotopes of carbon.

His most cited work include:

  • Paleogeographic maps of the Japanese Islands: Plate tectonic synthesis from 750 Ma to the present (790 citations)
  • Blueschists and Eclogites of the World and Their Exhumation (503 citations)
  • Paleogeographic reconstruction and origin of the Philippine Sea (442 citations)

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

Shigenori Maruyama mostly deals with Geochemistry, Paleontology, Subduction, Petrology and Zircon. His Geochemistry study frequently involves adjacent topics like Eclogite. Much of his study explores Paleontology relationship to Earth science.

His Subduction study combines topics in areas such as Plate tectonics and Continental crust. Shigenori Maruyama combines subjects such as Pilbara Craton and Hydrothermal circulation with his study of Archean. His studies in Mantle integrate themes in fields like Mantle wedge, Mantle convection, Transition zone and Crust.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (53.71%)
  • Paleontology (17.64%)
  • Subduction (14.23%)

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

  • Geochemistry (53.71%)
  • Astrobiology (15.23%)
  • Hadean (10.82%)

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

Shigenori Maruyama mainly investigates Geochemistry, Astrobiology, Hadean, Abiogenesis and Paleontology. His Geochemistry study frequently links to related topics such as Hydrothermal circulation. Shigenori Maruyama has researched Astrobiology in several fields, including Planet and Planetary habitability.

His study looks at the relationship between Hadean and topics such as KREEP, which overlap with Pyrite, Chromite and Sulfide minerals. His Magmatism, Paleozoic and Tectonics study, which is part of a larger body of work in Paleontology, is frequently linked to Extinction event, bridging the gap between disciplines. Shigenori Maruyama has included themes like Craton, Plate tectonics and Crust in his Archean study.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Origins of building blocks of life: A review (101 citations)
  • Hadean Earth and primordial continents: The cradle of prebiotic life (34 citations)
  • Hadean Earth and primordial continents: The cradle of prebiotic life (34 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Basalt
  • Plate tectonics

Shigenori Maruyama spends much of his time researching Geochemistry, Hadean, Abiogenesis, Archean and Plate tectonics. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hydrothermal circulation and Craton. His Archean study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Heavy mineral, Tray, Radiometric dating and Crust.

His Plate tectonics study incorporates themes from Atmosphere, Earth, Mantle, Astrobiology and Late Heavy Bombardment. His research investigates the connection with Mantle and areas like Earth science which intersect with concerns in Continental crust, Martian surface and Subduction. His Subduction study is associated with Paleontology.
