Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oxygen
  • Ecology
  • Mineral

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Peridotite, Brucite, Hydrothermal vent and Magnetite. His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Seafloor spreading, Hydrothermal circulation and Oceanic crust. Wolfgang Bach usually deals with Hydrothermal circulation and limits it to topics linked to Mineralogy and Seawater and Environmental chemistry.

His study in Hydrothermal vent is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sulfide and Weathering. The study incorporates disciplines such as Abyssal zone, Metasomatism and Mid-Atlantic Ridge in addition to Magnetite. Wolfgang Bach focuses mostly in the field of Basalt, narrowing it down to matters related to Ecology and, in some cases, Chemosynthesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program (935 citations)
  • A long in situ section of the lower ocean crust: results of {ODP} Leg 176 drilling at the Southwest Indian Ridge (362 citations)
  • Abundance and diversity of microbial life in ocean crust (301 citations)

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

Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Hydrothermal circulation, Table and Oceanic crust are his primary areas of study. The Geochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Seawater, Carbonate and Mineral. Wolfgang Bach integrates Mineralogy and Rare-earth element in his studies.

His Hydrothermal circulation research includes elements of Volcano, Sulfide, Environmental chemistry and Anhydrite. His Oceanic crust research incorporates themes from Mid-ocean ridge, Earth science, Basement and Crust. His Peridotite research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Magnetite and Olivine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (59.20%)
  • Mineralogy (30.40%)
  • Hydrothermal circulation (28.00%)

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

  • Geochemistry (59.20%)
  • Hydrothermal circulation (28.00%)
  • Basalt (13.60%)

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

His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Hydrothermal circulation, Basalt, Volcano and Oceanic crust. His Geochemistry research integrates issues from Ophiolite, Carbonate and Mineral. His research integrates issues of Seawater, Environmental chemistry and Volcanic rock in his study of Hydrothermal circulation.

In most of his Oceanic crust studies, his work intersects topics such as Crust. In his study, Table and Mineralogy is strongly linked to Plagioclase, which falls under the umbrella field of Melt inclusions. His Hydrothermal vent research incorporates elements of Ecology and Chimney.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Niche partitioning of diverse sulfur-oxidizing bacteria at hydrothermal vents (64 citations)
  • Biological methane production under putative Enceladus-like conditions. (35 citations)
  • The behavior of trace elements in seawater, sedimentary pore water, and their incorporation into carbonate minerals: a review (26 citations)

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

  • Oxygen
  • Ecology
  • Mineral

Wolfgang Bach focuses on Geochemistry, Hydrothermal circulation, Environmental chemistry, Oceanic crust and Carbonate. His Geochemistry study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Ophiolite. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Seawater, Outcrop, Sediment and Ridge.

His work in Environmental chemistry addresses subjects such as Methanogenesis, which are connected to disciplines such as Sulfate, Chemosynthesis, Hydromagnesite and Archaeol. His Oceanic crust research includes themes of Magma and Mantle. His work carried out in the field of Analytical chemistry brings together such families of science as Mineralogy, Olivine and Mineral.
