What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
Mars Exploration Program, Impact crater, Geochemistry, Meridiani Planum and Water on Mars are her primary areas of study.
Her research on Mars Exploration Program focuses in particular on Martian surface.
Her Impact crater study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lava, Pyroclastic rock, Earth science and Geomorphology.
Her work in Geochemistry addresses issues such as Hesperian, which are connected to fields such as Ventifact and Erosion.
Her work carried out in the field of Meridiani Planum brings together such families of science as Sedimentary depositional environment, Outcrop, Aeolian processes and Moons of Mars.
The study incorporates disciplines such as CRISM, Orbiter and Exploration of Mars in addition to Water on Mars.
Her most cited work include:
- Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) (1011 citations)
- Surface processes recorded by rocks and soils on Meridiani Planum, Mars: Microscopic Imager observations during Opportunity's first three extended missions (286 citations)
- Opaline silica in young deposits on Mars (269 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Catherine M. Weitz spends much of her time researching Mars Exploration Program, Geochemistry, Impact crater, Astrobiology and Mineralogy.
Her Mars Exploration Program study incorporates themes from Aeolian processes and Geomorphology.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Deposition, Labyrinthus, Mass wasting and Hesperian.
Her study focuses on the intersection of Impact crater and fields such as Earth science with connections in the field of Water on Mars.
Catherine M. Weitz interconnects Volcano, Basalt and Mafic in the investigation of issues within Mineralogy.
In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Meridiani Planum, Clastic rock is strongly linked to Outcrop.
She most often published in these fields:
- Mars Exploration Program (42.39%)
- Geochemistry (33.70%)
- Impact crater (25.00%)
What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

- Astrobiology (20.11%)
In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mars Exploration Program, Geochemistry, Astrobiology, Aeolian processes and Impact crater.
The Mars Exploration Program study combines topics in areas such as Sediment transport, Bedform and Mineralogy.
Her Geochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Structural basin, Geologic map, Hesperian and Labyrinthus.
Her study looks at the intersection of Aeolian processes and topics like Gale crater with Grain size, Sorting, Martian surface, Sediment and Mars surface.
Her work carried out in the field of Impact crater brings together such families of science as Paleontology, Mafic, Regolith and Geomorphology.
Catherine M. Weitz has included themes like Hyperspectral imaging and Remote sensing in her Martian study.
Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Geology of the InSight landing site on Mars (33 citations)
- Morphologic Diversity of Martian Ripples: Implications for Large-Ripple Formation (28 citations)
- Sand Grain Sizes and Shapes in Eolian Bedforms at Gale Crater, Mars (25 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Her scientific interests lie mostly in Mars Exploration Program, Aeolian processes, Impact crater, Astrobiology and Geochemistry.
Her studies deal with areas such as Geomorphology, Sediment transport, Bedform and Regolith as well as Mars Exploration Program.
Her Aeolian processes research includes themes of Gale crater, Mineralogy and Degradation.
Her study in Gale crater is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both In situ and CRISM.
While working in this field, Catherine M. Weitz studies both Impact crater and Stratigraphy.
Many of her studies on Geochemistry involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Plateau.
