About Ian Somerville

Ian Somerville, With an exceptional h-index of 44 and a recent h-index of 28 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at University College Dublin, specializes in the field of palaeontology, Carboniferous sedimentary basins, carbonates, coral reefs, foraminifers.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Permian post-orogenic terrestrial successions in the western and northern peripheral orogens of the Junggar Basin: Records of sedimentary provenance, paleogeographic and …

Geochemical comparison between oceanic and continental arc volcanic rocks: Insights to arc magmatism

A hyperactive geomagnetic field in the late Visean (Early Carboniferous) from the late Asbian stratotype section in northwest England, UK

Rock magnetic‐based cyclic expression in late Visean ramp carbonates and an astrochronology for the late Asbian from Northwest England

A potential global chronostratigraphic boundary for the base of the middle Viséan

Cenozoic basement-involved rifting of the northern South China Sea margin

Foraminiferal Evolution as A Basis for the Subdivision of the Middle Viséan in Europe

Foraminifers and calcareous algae in Brigantian rocks as guides for the recognition of the Viséan-Serpukhovian boundary interval of Morocco
