His most cited work include:

• The Redox State of Earth's Mantle (644 citations)
• Experimental evidence for the existence of iron-rich metal in the Earth's lower mantle (423 citations)
• High-pressure partial melting of garnet pyroxenite: Possible mafic lithologies in the source of ocean island basalts (325 citations)

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

Daniel J. Frost mainly investigates Mineralogy, Analytical chemistry, Mantle, Crystallography and Silicate. His study in Mineralogy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transition zone and Thermodynamics. His research investigates the link between Analytical chemistry and topics such as Bulk modulus that cross with problems in Compressibility and Diamond anvil cell.

Mantle is a subfield of Geochemistry that Daniel J. Frost tackles. In his research, Synchrotron is intimately related to Diffraction, which falls under the overarching field of Crystallography. As a part of the same scientific family, Daniel J. Frost mostly works in the field of Silicate, focusing on Metal and, on occasion, Core formation.
