Fellow of the Geological Society of America

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Igneous rock
  • Quartz
  • Hydrogen

His main research concerns Subduction, Metamorphic rock, Geochemistry, Tectonics and Paleontology. His Subduction research incorporates themes from Slab, Lithosphere and Plate tectonics. His Metamorphic rock study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Shear zone, Sequence and Paleozoic.

His study focuses on the intersection of Geochemistry and fields such as Blueschist with connections in the field of Omphacite, Eclogitization and Lawsonite. His Tectonics study incorporates themes from Dome, Geomorphology, Metamorphism and Series. His work on Paired metamorphic belts and Continental margin as part of general Paleontology study is frequently linked to Arc, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Nomenclature of the amphibole supergroup (517 citations)
  • Plate-kinematics and crustal dynamics of circum-Caribbean arc-continent interactions: Tectonic controls on basin development in Proto-Caribbean margins (206 citations)
  • Thermomechanical modelling of slab detachment (205 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Metamorphic rock, Amphibole, Mineralogy and Crystallography. The concepts of his Geochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Blueschist, Lawsonite, Eclogite and Tectonics. Metamorphic rock is a primary field of his research addressed under Petrology.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Petrology, Geophysics and Continental crust is strongly linked to Diapir. His studies deal with areas such as Crystal chemistry, Glaucophane and Schist as well as Amphibole. The Mineralogy study combines topics in areas such as Crystallization, Hydrothermal circulation and Analytical chemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (33.01%)
  • Metamorphic rock (22.33%)
  • Amphibole (19.42%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (33.01%)
  • Lawsonite (5.83%)
  • Subduction (11.65%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Lawsonite, Subduction, Blueschist and Metamorphic rock. Walter V. Maresch combines subjects such as Quartz and Omphacite with his study of Geochemistry. His Subduction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Geophysics and Petrology.

His Blueschist study typically links adjacent topics like Amphibole. His work carried out in the field of Amphibole brings together such families of science as Crystal chemistry, Electron microprobe and Chemical composition. His research on Metamorphic rock concerns the broader Paleontology.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Nomenclature of the amphibole supergroup (517 citations)
  • The Greater Antillean Arc: Early Cretaceous origin and proposed relationship to Central American subduction mélanges: implications for models of Caribbean evolution (91 citations)
  • Mass flow in serpentinite-hosted subduction channels: P - T - t path patterns of metamorphic blocks in the Rio San Juan mélange (Dominican Republic) (67 citations)

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

  • Igneous rock
  • Quartz
  • Hydrogen

Walter V. Maresch mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Subduction, Blueschist, Lawsonite and Glaucophane. His primary area of study in Geochemistry is in the field of Metasomatism. Many of his studies on Subduction involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Metamorphic rock.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Eclogitization, Eclogite, Magmatism and Plate tectonics in addition to Metamorphic rock. In his study, Igneous rock and Metamorphism is inextricably linked to Zircon, which falls within the broad field of Blueschist. His Glaucophane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Recrystallization, Augite and Omphacite.
