Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Redox
  • Mineral

William E. Seyfried mostly deals with Hydrothermal circulation, Mineralogy, Seawater, Geochemistry and Basalt. The Hydrothermal circulation study combines topics in areas such as Hot spring, Metal, Mid-ocean ridge and Ultramafic rock. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Environmental chemistry, Magnetite, Peridotite and Dissolution.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Sulfide, Brucite, Clay minerals and Analytical chemistry in addition to Seawater. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Oceanography and Hydrothermal vent. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Basalt, narrowing it down to issues related to the Sulfate, and often Deep sea, Precambrian, Banded iron formation and Hematite.

His most cited work include:

  • Reduction of CO2 during serpentinization of olivine at 300 °C and 500 bar (409 citations)
  • Hydrothermal alteration of basalt by seawater under seawater-dominated conditions (285 citations)
  • Alteration of the oceanic crust: Implications for geochemical cycles of lithium and boron (270 citations)

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

William E. Seyfried spends much of his time researching Hydrothermal circulation, Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Seawater and Hydrothermal vent. His Hydrothermal circulation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Inorganic chemistry, Redox, Sulfide, Mid-ocean ridge and Isotope fractionation. His work carried out in the field of Mineralogy brings together such families of science as Analytical chemistry, Basalt, Quartz and Dissolution.

His work investigates the relationship between Geochemistry and topics such as Plagioclase that intersect with problems in Recrystallization. His studies deal with areas such as Sulfate, Clay minerals and Brine as well as Seawater. His Hydrothermal vent research incorporates themes from Seafloor spreading, Oceanography and Chloride.
