Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

His primary areas of investigation include Paleontology, Tectonics, Fission track dating, Geomorphology and Metamorphic rock. Stuart N. Thomson mostly deals with Accretion in his studies of Paleontology. His work deals with themes such as Glacial period and Erosion, which intersect with Tectonics.

The study of Fission track dating is intertwined with the study of Thermochronology in a number of ways. His Geomorphology research incorporates elements of Denudation, Lithosphere and Metamorphic core complex. His Metamorphic rock study combines topics in areas such as Series, Geophysics and Plate tectonics.

His most cited work include:

  • The Hellenic Subduction System: High-Pressure Metamorphism, Exhumation, Normal Faulting, and Large-Scale Extension (226 citations)
  • Glaciation as a destructive and constructive control on mountain building (155 citations)
  • Glaciation as a destructive and constructive control on mountain building (155 citations)

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

His main research concerns Paleontology, Geochemistry, Fission track dating, Thermochronology and Zircon. His Paleontology study often links to related topics such as Geomorphology. His research investigates the connection between Geomorphology and topics such as Subduction that intersect with issues in Continental crust.

His studies deal with areas such as Cenozoic, Sedimentary rock, Late Miocene, Fault and Hematite as well as Fission track dating. His Thermochronology research focuses on subjects like Denudation, which are linked to Slab. His research on Zircon also deals with topics like

  • Metamorphic rock which intersects with area such as Accretionary wedge and Paleozoic,
  • Geochronology and related Provenance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (53.70%)
  • Geochemistry (30.86%)
  • Fission track dating (30.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Paleontology (53.70%)
  • Geochemistry (30.86%)
  • Thermochronology (28.40%)

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

Stuart N. Thomson spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Geochemistry, Thermochronology, Fission track dating and Provenance. His study on Structural basin, Tectonics, Cenozoic and Tectonophysics is often connected to Delta as part of broader study in Paleontology. His Tectonics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Quaternary and Paleozoic.

Stuart N. Thomson combines subjects such as Bedrock, Geothermal gradient, Permian and Erosion with his study of Geochemistry. The various areas that Stuart N. Thomson examines in his Thermochronology study include Kola peninsula and Cretaceous. Fission track dating is the subject of his research, which falls under Zircon.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Late Cretaceous exhumation and uplift of the Harz Mountains, Germany: a multi-method thermochronological approach (4 citations)
  • Zircon fission‐track ages from Newfoundland—A proxy for high geothermal gradients and exhumation before opening of the Central Atlantic Ocean (4 citations)
  • Fission track thermochronology of the Tuwu-Yandong porphyry Cu deposits, NW China: constraints on preservation and exhumation (3 citations)

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

  • Sedimentary rock
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Fission track dating, Geochemistry, Thermochronology, Zircon and Paleontology. His Geochemistry research includes themes of Geothermal gradient and Sediment. His Thermochronology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Denudation, Carboniferous and Kola peninsula.

The Zircon study combines topics in areas such as Sedimentology, Basement and Paleogene. His Cretaceous research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Tectonics, Paleozoic, Sedimentary rock, Quaternary and Mesozoic. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Subduction, Colorado plateau, Crust, Permian and Fold.
