Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Plate tectonics
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Volcano

His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Subduction, Ophiolite, Geochemistry and Obduction. Volcano and Graben are the core of his Paleontology study. In his research, Geologic record, Back-arc basin, Suture, Permian and Continental margin is intimately related to Cretaceous, which falls under the overarching field of Ophiolite.

His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Foreland basin, Tectonics, Pluton and Earth science. Among his Obduction studies, you can observe a synthesis of other disciplines of science such as Nappe, North Anatolian Fault, Transform fault, Island arc and Plate tectonics. He combines subjects such as Marine transgression, Continental collision and Imbrication with his study of Nappe.

His most cited work include:

  • Tethyan evolution of Turkey: A plate tectonic approach (2342 citations)
  • Tethyan evolution of Turkey: A plate tectonic approach (2342 citations)
  • Genesis of collision volcanism in Eastern Anatolia, Turkey (567 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Paleontology, Geochemistry, Tectonics, Volcanic rock and Seismology. His research brings together the fields of Geomorphology and Paleontology. The concepts of his Geochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Magmatism and Pluton.

His Volcanic rock research incorporates themes from Pyroclastic rock and Caldera. His research in Ophiolite intersects with topics in Metamorphic rock and Island arc. In his articles, Yücel Yilmaz combines various disciplines, including Nappe and Obduction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Paleontology (59.26%)
  • Geochemistry (24.07%)
  • Tectonics (24.07%)

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

  • Paleontology (59.26%)
  • Seismology (16.67%)
  • Neotectonics (5.56%)

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

Yücel Yilmaz mostly deals with Paleontology, Seismology, Neotectonics, Eastern mediterranean and Tectonics. His study in Cenozoic and Imbrication falls within the category of Paleontology. His Seismology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Geochemistry and Metamorphic rock.

Yücel Yilmaz performs multidisciplinary study on Neotectonics and Earthquake forecasting in his works. His studies in Tectonics integrate themes in fields like Paleomagnetism, Mesozoic, Geomorphology and Cretaceous.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The tectonic history of the Niğde‐Kırşehir Massif and the Taurides since the Late Mesozoic: Paleomagnetic evidence for two‐phase orogenic curvature in Central Anatolia (12 citations)
  • Morphotectonic Development of Anatolia and the Surrounding Regions (9 citations)
  • Active Global Seismology: Neotectonics and Earthquake Potential of the Eastern Mediterranean Region (6 citations)

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

  • Plate tectonics
  • Sedimentary rock
  • Volcano

His scientific interests lie mostly in Earth science, Eastern mediterranean, Seismology, Neotectonics and Tectonics. Tectonics is a subfield of Paleontology that Yücel Yilmaz tackles. His Block research incorporates elements of Paleomagnetism and Massif.
