His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Metamorphism, Metamorphic rock, Massif and Seismology. The various areas that Patrick Monié examines in his Geochemistry study include Lineation, Orogeny and Craton. The concepts of his Metamorphism study are interwoven with issues in Nappe, Eclogite, Metamorphic facies and Paleozoic.
His Metamorphic rock research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Blueschist, Subduction and Phengite. His studies deal with areas such as Metamorphic core complex, Migmatite, Geomorphology, Tectonic phase and Extensional tectonics as well as Massif. Patrick Monié interconnects Structural basin, Paleontology and Archipelago in the investigation of issues within Seismology.
