Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Oceanography
  • Plate tectonics

His primary scientific interests are in Geochemistry, Paleontology, Earth's magnetic field, Paleomagnetism and Remanence. While the research belongs to areas of Geochemistry, Toshitsugu Yamazaki spends his time largely on the problem of Oceanography, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Aeolian processes, Environmental magnetism, Terrigenous sediment and Rock magnetism. His Paleontology research includes themes of Seismology, Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere and Paleoclimatology.

His Earth's magnetic field research includes elements of Astrophysics and Magnetic dip, Geophysics. The Paleomagnetism study combines topics in areas such as Natural remanent magnetization and Secular variation. His study looks at the relationship between Natural remanent magnetization and fields such as Greigite, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His most cited work include:

  • A Cenozoic record of the equatorial Pacific carbonate compensation depth (208 citations)
  • Peridotites from the Mariana Trough: first look at the mantle beneath an active back-arc basin (128 citations)
  • Subducting seamounts and deformation of overriding forearc wedges around Japan (108 citations)

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

His main research concerns Paleontology, Paleomagnetism, Earth's magnetic field, Geochemistry and Geophysics. His research investigates the connection between Paleontology and topics such as Seismology that intersect with problems in Structural basin. His Paleomagnetism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mineralogy, Demagnetizing field, Anomaly, Remanence and Stack.

In his research on the topic of Mineralogy, Magnetofossil is strongly related with Magnetite. Toshitsugu Yamazaki has included themes like Paleointensity, Chronostratigraphy, Secular variation and Magnetic dipole in his Earth's magnetic field study. Toshitsugu Yamazaki has researched Geochemistry in several fields, including Glacial period, Environmental magnetism, Sediment, Rock magnetism and Oceanography.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (32.26%)
  • Paleomagnetism (32.80%)
  • Earth's magnetic field (34.41%)

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

  • Paleontology (32.26%)
  • Magnetofossil (12.37%)
  • Oceanography (19.89%)

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

Toshitsugu Yamazaki spends much of his time researching Paleontology, Magnetofossil, Oceanography, Geochemistry and Paleointensity. Many of his research projects under Paleontology are closely connected to Large igneous province with Large igneous province, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His work carried out in the field of Magnetofossil brings together such families of science as Magnetotactic bacteria, Magnetite and Diagenesis.

He does research in Geochemistry, focusing on Terrigenous sediment specifically. His Paleointensity research integrates issues from Earth's magnetic field, Mineralogy and Geophysics. His Mineralogy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Natural remanent magnetization and Demagnetizing field.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Altervalent substitution of sodium for calcium in biogenic calcite and aragonite (29 citations)
  • Changing Abundance of Magnetofossil Morphologies in Pelagic Red Clay Around Minamitorishima, Western North Pacific (14 citations)
  • Changing Abundance of Magnetofossil Morphologies in Pelagic Red Clay Around Minamitorishima, Western North Pacific (14 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Paleontology
  • Plate tectonics

His primary areas of study are Magnetofossil, Pelagic red clay, Oceanography, Rock magnetism and Geochemistry. His research in Magnetofossil intersects with topics in Abundance, Environmental magnetism, Magnetosome and Biogeochemical cycle. His Pelagic red clay study combines topics in areas such as Quartz, Feldspar, Plagioclase and Provenance.

His study on Pacific ocean, Seawater and Deglaciation is often connected to Carbon cycle as part of broader study in Oceanography. Toshitsugu Yamazaki combines subjects such as Tectonics, Transition zone, Seafloor spreading, Middle latitudes and Terrigenous sediment with his study of Rock magnetism. His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Global cooling, Magnetotactic bacteria, Magnetite and Equator.
