Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry
  • Paleontology

Astrobiology, Mars Exploration Program, Sample Analysis at Mars, Meteorite and Martian are his primary areas of study. His Mars Exploration Program study combines topics in areas such as Organic matter, Spectrometer and Basalt. His Sample Analysis at Mars research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Atmosphere, Chlorobenzene, Mineralogy, Rocknest and Pyrolysis.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Environmental chemistry, Secondary ion mass spectrometry and Lunar water in addition to Mineralogy. His research integrates issues of Breccia, Reflectivity and Asteroid in his study of Meteorite. Andrew Steele interconnects Carbonate, Carbon and Total organic carbon in the investigation of issues within Martian.

His most cited work include:

  • Comet 81P/Wild 2 under a microscope. (742 citations)
  • Questioning the evidence for Earth's oldest fossils (682 citations)
  • A habitable fluvio-lacustrine environment at Yellowknife Bay, Gale crater, Mars. (499 citations)

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

Andrew Steele spends much of his time researching Astrobiology, Mars Exploration Program, Martian, Meteorite and Mineralogy. Interplanetary dust cloud, Extraterrestrial life, Regolith, Chondrite and Solar System are among the areas of Astrobiology where he concentrates his study. Mars Exploration Program and Carbon are commonly linked in his work.

His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Geochemistry and Raman spectroscopy. Andrew Steele mostly deals with Basalt in his studies of Geochemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Rocknest and Quadrupole mass analyzer as well as Sample Analysis at Mars.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Astrobiology (36.18%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (31.41%)
  • Martian (18.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Astrobiology (36.18%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (31.41%)
  • Martian (18.49%)

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

Andrew Steele mainly investigates Astrobiology, Mars Exploration Program, Martian, Meteorite and Organic matter. His research on Astrobiology often connects related areas such as Habitability. His work carried out in the field of Mars Exploration Program brings together such families of science as Sample and Total organic carbon.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including In situ, Inorganic chemistry, Sulfur and Organic synthesis. His Meteorite study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Interplanetary dust cloud, In situ analysis, Abiogenesis and Analytical chemistry. Andrew Steele has researched Organic matter in several fields, including Geochemistry, Diagenesis, Extraterrestrial life and Raman spectroscopy.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Organic matter preserved in 3-billion-year-old mudstones at Gale crater, Mars. (152 citations)
  • Background levels of methane in Mars' atmosphere show strong seasonal variations (102 citations)
  • Widespread abiotic methane in chromitites (23 citations)

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

  • Oxygen
  • Organic chemistry
  • Astronomy

His primary areas of study are Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Meteorite, Martian and Organic matter. Many of his research projects under Mars Exploration Program are closely connected to Sample collection with Sample collection, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His research in Sample Analysis at Mars and Chondrite are components of Astrobiology.

His Meteorite research focuses on Interplanetary dust cloud and how it relates to Analytical chemistry and Atmospheric entry. His Martian study combines topics in areas such as Total organic carbon, Abiogenesis, Igneous rock, Pyroxene and In situ analysis. His Organic matter research incorporates elements of Carbon, Molecule, Parent body and Diagenesis.
