Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Volcano
  • Subduction

Her primary areas of investigation include Subduction, Geochemistry, Mantle, Basalt and Mineralogy. Her research in Subduction intersects with topics in Sediment, Melt inclusions and Partial melting, Crust. Her Geochemistry research integrates issues from Adakite and Oceanic crust.

In her study, Island arc and Incompatible element is strongly linked to Flux melting, which falls under the umbrella field of Mantle. Terry Plank has researched Basalt in several fields, including Earth science and Igneous rock. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Mineralogy, Trace element are connected with Seawater and La icp ms and other disciplines.

Her most cited work include:

  • The chemical composition of subducting sediment and its consequences for the crust and mantle (2379 citations)
  • Element transport from slab to volcanic front at the Mariana arc (1046 citations)
  • Petrological systematics of mid-ocean ridge basalts: Constraints on melt generation beneath ocean ridges (857 citations)

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

Terry Plank mostly deals with Geochemistry, Mantle, Subduction, Petrology and Mineralogy. Her study looks at the relationship between Geochemistry and topics such as Oceanic crust, which overlap with Seafloor spreading and Trace element. The Mantle study which covers Igneous rock that intersects with Peridotite and Island arc.

Her work deals with themes such as Sedimentary rock, Sediment, Earth science and Continental crust, which intersect with Subduction. As part of one scientific family, she deals mainly with the area of Petrology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Magma, and often Melt inclusions. Her research investigates the connection between Mineralogy and topics such as Table that intersect with issues in Chemical composition.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (46.06%)
  • Mantle (31.12%)
  • Subduction (26.56%)

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

  • Petrology (25.73%)
  • Geochemistry (46.06%)
  • Magma (13.28%)

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

Terry Plank spends much of her time researching Petrology, Geochemistry, Magma, Volcano and Olivine. Her work on Magma is typically connected to Arc as part of general Petrology study, connecting several disciplines of science. While the research belongs to areas of Geochemistry, Terry Plank spends her time largely on the problem of Subduction, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Crust.

When carried out as part of a general Magma research project, her work on Decompression rate is frequently linked to work in Magmatic water, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Her study in the field of Melt inclusions is also linked to topics like Materials science. As a part of the same scientific study, Terry Plank usually deals with the Mantle, concentrating on Oceanic crust and frequently concerns with Isotope fractionation and Seawater.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • CO 2 flux emissions from the Earth’s most actively degassing volcanoes, 2005–2015 (42 citations)
  • Interplay of crystal fractionation, sulfide saturation and oxygen fugacity on the iron isotope composition of arc lavas: An example from the Marianas (36 citations)
  • Magnesium isotopic composition of altered oceanic crust and the global Mg cycle (30 citations)

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

  • Basalt
  • Volcano
  • Igneous rock

Geochemistry, Basalt, Subduction, Olivine and Melt inclusions are her primary areas of study. A large part of her Geochemistry studies is devoted to Volcanic rock. Her Basalt research incorporates elements of Trace element and Volcanic arc.

Her studies deal with areas such as Mantle, Partial melting and Pyroclastic rock as well as Subduction. Her research on Olivine also deals with topics like

  • Petrology together with Magma, Explosive eruption, Volcano and Earthquake swarm,
  • Phenocryst which intersects with area such as Analytical chemistry and Arrhenius equation. Her Oceanic crust study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Seawater, Isotope fractionation and Crust.
