Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Electron
  • Atmosphere

His primary areas of investigation include Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Atmosphere of Mars, Atmospheric sciences and Atmosphere. His Mars Exploration Program research incorporates themes from Planet, Solar wind and Regolith. His research in Astrobiology intersects with topics in Orbiter, Earth science and Crust.

Bruce M. Jakosky interconnects Water on Mars, Convection, Latitude, Northern Hemisphere and Ionosphere in the investigation of issues within Atmosphere of Mars. His Atmospheric sciences research includes elements of Scale height, Altitude, Water vapor and Atmospheric escape. The study incorporates disciplines such as Spectrometer, Argon and Quadrupole mass analyzer in addition to Atmosphere.

His most cited work include:

  • Mars Global Surveyor Thermal Emission Spectrometer experiment: Investigation description and surface science results (751 citations)
  • The Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) for the Mars 2001 Odyssey mission (690 citations)
  • Thermal and albedo mapping of Mars during the Viking primary mission (582 citations)

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

Bruce M. Jakosky focuses on Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Atmosphere of Mars, Martian and Atmospheric sciences. His Mars Exploration Program study combines topics in areas such as Atmosphere, Ionosphere, Geophysics, Planet and Solar wind. His Astrobiology study incorporates themes from Spacecraft and Earth science.

His Atmosphere of Mars study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Plasma, Altitude, Astrophysics and Thermosphere. The Martian study combines topics in areas such as Magnetosphere and Exosphere. His research integrates issues of Water vapor and Latitude in his study of Atmospheric sciences.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mars Exploration Program (67.70%)
  • Astrobiology (46.05%)
  • Atmosphere of Mars (38.32%)

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

  • Mars Exploration Program (67.70%)
  • Martian (34.88%)
  • Atmosphere of Mars (38.32%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Mars Exploration Program, Martian, Atmosphere of Mars, Astrobiology and Solar wind. His studies in Mars Exploration Program integrate themes in fields like Atmosphere, Ionosphere, Geophysics, Astrophysics and Magnetosphere. His research investigates the connection between Martian and topics such as Magnetohydrodynamics that intersect with issues in Magnetic reconnection.

His studies deal with areas such as Computational physics, Plasma, Atmospheric sciences, Planet and Thermosphere as well as Atmosphere of Mars. He combines subjects such as Heavy ion, Exoplanet and Orbiter with his study of Astrobiology. As part of one scientific family, Bruce M. Jakosky deals mainly with the area of Solar wind, narrowing it down to issues related to the Bow shock, and often Ultra low frequency.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Loss of the Martian atmosphere to space: Present-day loss rates determined from MAVEN observations and integrated loss through time (102 citations)
  • Observations and Impacts of the 10 September 2017 Solar Events at Mars: An Overview and Synthesis of the Initial Results (42 citations)
  • Modeling Martian Atmospheric Losses over Time: Implications for Exoplanetary Climate Evolution and Habitability (38 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Electron
  • Meteorology

Bruce M. Jakosky mostly deals with Mars Exploration Program, Martian, Astrobiology, Atmosphere of Mars and Solar wind. His study in Mars Exploration Program is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Atmosphere, Exosphere, Planet and Ionosphere. Bruce M. Jakosky has included themes like Magnetohydrodynamics, Magnetosphere, Plasma, Coronal mass ejection and Thermosphere in his Martian study.

His Astrobiology research incorporates themes from Pickup Ion, Turbopause, Orbiter and Exoplanet. Atmosphere of Mars and Astrophysics are commonly linked in his work. As part of the same scientific family, Bruce M. Jakosky usually focuses on Solar wind, concentrating on Geophysics and intersecting with Magnetosheath and Topology.
