Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mineral
  • Paleontology
  • Mineralogy

His scientific interests lie mostly in Mineralogy, Zircon, Dissolution, Hydrothermal circulation and Metamictization. The concepts of his Zircon study are interwoven with issues in Thorium, Metamorphic rock, Breccia and Radiogenic nuclide. His Dissolution research includes elements of Leucite and Diffusion.

He regularly links together related areas like Geochemistry in his Hydrothermal circulation studies. His studies deal with areas such as Amorphous solid and Electron microprobe as well as Metamictization. His Electron microprobe research incorporates elements of Annealing and Recrystallization.

His most cited work include:

  • Re-equilibration of Zircon in Aqueous Fluids and Melts (503 citations)
  • An international initiative on long-term behavior of high-level nuclear waste glass (268 citations)
  • Experimental hydrothermal alteration of partially metamict zircon (210 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Mineralogy, Zircon, Aqueous solution, Analytical chemistry and Raman spectroscopy. His work carried out in the field of Mineralogy brings together such families of science as Mineral, Radiogenic nuclide, Hydrothermal circulation, Early Earth and Silicate. The various areas that Thorsten Geisler examines in his Hydrothermal circulation study include Pyrochlore and Albite.

His research in Zircon intersects with topics in Amorphous solid, Electron microprobe and Recrystallization. His Aqueous solution research includes elements of Isotopes of oxygen, Borosilicate glass and Dissolution. His work in the fields of Activation energy and Infrared spectroscopy overlaps with other areas such as Infrared and Composition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mineralogy (46.22%)
  • Zircon (42.02%)
  • Aqueous solution (32.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Raman spectroscopy (26.89%)
  • Analytical chemistry (34.45%)
  • Mineralogy (46.22%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Raman spectroscopy, Analytical chemistry, Mineralogy, Geochemistry and Aqueous solution. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sintering, Crystallization, Kaolinite and Silicate in addition to Raman spectroscopy. Thorsten Geisler interconnects Trace element, Enamel paint and Dentin in the investigation of issues within Analytical chemistry.

He combines subjects such as Supersaturation, Silicate minerals, Weathering, Saturation and Banded iron formation with his study of Mineralogy. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Inclusion, Astrobiology, Chondrite, Meteorite and Corundum. His study in Aqueous solution is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fossil bone, Taphonomy, Corrosion and Borosilicate glass.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Control of silicate weathering by interface-coupled dissolution-precipitation processes at the mineral-solution interface (41 citations)
  • Subduction zone forearc serpentinites as incubators for deep microbial life (24 citations)
  • Towards a unifying mechanistic model for silicate glass corrosion (21 citations)

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

  • Mineral
  • Paleontology
  • Mineralogy

Thorsten Geisler mostly deals with Aqueous solution, Corrosion, Dissolution, Borosilicate glass and Surface coating. His studies in Aqueous solution integrate themes in fields like Transport phenomena and Raman spectroscopy. His Corrosion study combines topics in areas such as Porosity and Diffusion.

His Surface coating research incorporates elements of Saturation, Supersaturation, Mineralogy, Silicate minerals and Weathering. Thorsten Geisler combines topics linked to Silicate with his work on Saturation.
