Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Volcano
  • Astronomy
  • Basalt

His main research concerns Volcano, Lava, Impact crater, Seismology and Magma. His studies in Volcano integrate themes in fields like Volcanism and Thematic Mapper. His Lava study incorporates themes from Erebus, Advanced very-high-resolution radiometer, Geophysics, Volcanology and Remote sensing.

His work investigates the relationship between Impact crater and topics such as Lava dome that intersect with problems in Explosive eruption and Dome. His work carried out in the field of Seismology brings together such families of science as Petrology and Satellite data. In his work, Induced seismicity is strongly intertwined with Plume, which is a subfield of Magma.

His most cited work include:

  • Strombolian explosive styles and source conditions: insights from thermal (FLIR) video (184 citations)
  • A chronology of the 1991 to 1993 Mount Etna eruption using advanced very high resolution radiometer data: Implications for real‐time thermal volcano monitoring (166 citations)
  • Effusion rate trends at Etna and Krafla and their implications for eruptive mechanisms (162 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Volcano, Geochemistry, Impact crater, Astrobiology and Remote sensing. His research on Volcano concerns the broader Seismology. The concepts of his Geochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Geologic map and Quadrangle.

His work deals with themes such as Landform, Geophysics, Petrology and Tectonics, which intersect with Impact crater. As a part of the same scientific family, David A. Rothery mostly works in the field of Astrobiology, focusing on Planet and, on occasion, Crust. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Wavelength and Infrared.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Volcano (28.11%)
  • Geochemistry (17.05%)
  • Impact crater (16.13%)

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

  • Geochemistry (17.05%)
  • Geologic map (12.90%)
  • Planet (14.75%)

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

David A. Rothery mostly deals with Geochemistry, Geologic map, Planet, Quadrangle and Volcano. David A. Rothery works mostly in the field of Geologic map, limiting it down to topics relating to Mars Exploration Program and, in certain cases, Terrain and Pyroclastic rock. His Planet research includes elements of Telescope, Planetary science, Astrobiology, Mass wasting and Landform.

His research integrates issues of Volcanism, Tectonics, Fault and Impact crater in his study of Volcano. His study in Impact crater is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Seismology, Period and Geophysics, Magnetic anomaly. David A. Rothery combines subjects such as Lava and Igneous rock with his study of Explosive eruption.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rationale for BepiColombo Studies of Mercury’s Surface and Composition (19 citations)
  • Investigating Mercury’s Environment with the Two-Spacecraft BepiColombo Mission (18 citations)
  • Investigating Sources of Mercury's Crustal Magnetic Field: Further Mapping of MESSENGER Magnetometer Data (9 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Volcano
  • Solar System

David A. Rothery mainly focuses on Planet, Volcano, Impact crater, Geochemistry and Planetary science. His Planet study also includes

  • Landform that intertwine with fields like Petrology, Mass wasting and Solar System,
  • Astrobiology which connect with Pyroclastic rock. As part of one scientific family, David A. Rothery deals mainly with the area of Volcano, narrowing it down to issues related to the Volcanism, and often Explosive eruption.

His Explosive eruption research includes elements of Lava and Igneous rock. His studies in Impact crater integrate themes in fields like Geophysics, Magnetic anomaly and Latitude. His work on Effusive eruption and Crust as part of general Geochemistry research is often related to Multiple case, thus linking different fields of science.
