Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Mineral
  • Oxygen

His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Metamorphism, Granulite, Metamorphic rock and Sillimanite. His Geochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Mineralization, Manganese, Biotite and Mineral. His study looks at the relationship between Biotite and topics such as Mafic, which overlap with Gneiss.

His Metamorphism research includes elements of Orogeny and Rodinia. His Metamorphic rock research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Spinel, Tectonics, Mineralogy and Cordierite. His studies in Sillimanite integrate themes in fields like Ilmenite, Allanite and Pegmatite.

His most cited work include:

  • Timescales of crustal melting in the Higher Himalayan Crystallines (Sikkim, Eastern Himalaya) inferred from trace element-constrained monazite and zircon chronology (226 citations)
  • Ultra-high Temperature Metamorphism of Metapelitic Granulites from Kondapalle, Eastern Ghats Belt: Implications for the Indo-Antarctic Correlation (132 citations)
  • Tectonic evolution of the Eastern Ghats Belt, India (129 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Metamorphism, Metamorphic rock, Granulite and Mineralogy. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Petrology, Mineral and Sillimanite. Somnath Dasgupta interconnects Rodinia and Monazite in the investigation of issues within Metamorphism.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Tectonics, Inversion and Plagioclase in addition to Metamorphic rock. His work on Sapphirine and Charnockite as part of general Granulite study is frequently linked to Spinel, Biotite and Wollastonite, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work is dedicated to discovering how Mineralogy, Manganese are connected with Mineralization and other disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (67.54%)
  • Metamorphism (45.61%)
  • Metamorphic rock (37.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Metamorphism (45.61%)
  • Geochemistry (67.54%)
  • Metamorphic rock (37.72%)

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

Somnath Dasgupta focuses on Metamorphism, Geochemistry, Metamorphic rock, Supercontinent and Monazite. As part of the same scientific family, Somnath Dasgupta usually focuses on Metamorphism, concentrating on Partial melting and intersecting with Mafic. As part of his studies on Geochemistry, Somnath Dasgupta frequently links adjacent subjects like Craton.

Many of his research projects under Metamorphic rock are closely connected to Metamorphic reaction with Metamorphic reaction, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. In his research, Proterozoic and Orogeny is intimately related to Rodinia, which falls under the overarching field of Supercontinent. In his study, Geothermobarometry is strongly linked to Dharwar Craton, which falls under the umbrella field of Monazite.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Timescales of crustal melting in the Higher Himalayan Crystallines (Sikkim, Eastern Himalaya) inferred from trace element-constrained monazite and zircon chronology (226 citations)
  • Tectonic evolution of the Eastern Ghats Belt, India (129 citations)
  • India-Antarctica-Australia-Laurentia connection in the Paleoproterozoic–Mesoproterozoic revisited: Evidence from new zircon U-Pb and monazite chemical age data from the Eastern Ghats Belt, India (122 citations)

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

  • Organic chemistry
  • Mineral
  • Oxygen

His main research concerns Metamorphism, Geochemistry, Partial melting, Rodinia and Zircon. He has included themes like Migmatite and Metamorphic rock in his Metamorphism study. His Rodinia research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Orogeny, Precambrian, Supercontinent and Proterozoic.

In Supercontinent, Somnath Dasgupta works on issues like Laurentia, which are connected to Geophysics. His Monazite study, which is part of a larger body of work in Zircon, is frequently linked to Granulite, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work deals with themes such as Plagioclase, Biotite and Mafic, which intersect with Monazite.
