Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Geophysics
  • Solar System

His main research concerns Geodesy, Crust, Gravitational field, Gravity anomaly and Geophysics. His Geodesy research includes elements of Elevation, Satellite and Remote sensing. His research integrates issues of Grid and Mass flux in his study of Remote sensing.

The concepts of his Crust study are interwoven with issues in Tharsis, Mineralogy, Lithosphere and Mars Exploration Program. His work investigates the relationship between Gravitational field and topics such as Impact crater that intersect with problems in Tectonics, Planet and Asteroid. His Geophysics research includes themes of Equator and South Pole–Aitken basin.

His most cited work include:

  • Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter: Experiment summary after the first year of global mapping of Mars (1068 citations)
  • The Development of the Joint NASA GSFC and the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) Geopotential Model EGM96 (813 citations)
  • The Global Topography of Mars and Implications for Surface Evolution (712 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Geodesy, DORIS, Orbit determination, Gravitational field and Remote sensing. Frank G. Lemoine works on Geodesy which deals in particular with Altimeter. His studies in DORIS integrate themes in fields like Meteorology, Orbit and Reference frame, Terrestrial reference frame.

He interconnects Geopotential and Space research in the investigation of issues within Orbit determination. His Gravitational field research includes elements of Love number, Impact crater and Outer core. His Remote sensing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Doppler effect and Satellite laser ranging.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geodesy (43.54%)
  • DORIS (22.01%)
  • Orbit determination (20.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Geodesy (43.54%)
  • DORIS (22.01%)
  • Remote sensing (20.57%)

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

Frank G. Lemoine spends much of his time researching Geodesy, DORIS, Remote sensing, Terrestrial reference frame and Orbit determination. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Satellite tracking, Laser ranging and Global Positioning System. His work in the fields of Altimeter overlaps with other areas such as Polar motion.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Spacecraft and Sea level in addition to Altimeter. His Terrestrial reference frame research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in International Terrestrial Reference System and Satellite. His Orbit determination study combines topics in areas such as Position and Control theory.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Seasonal and static Gravity Field of Mars from MGS, Mars Odyssey and MRO Radio Science (76 citations)
  • Solar system expansion and strong equivalence principle as seen by the NASA MESSENGER mission. (56 citations)
  • Summary of the results from the lunar orbiter laser altimeter after seven years in lunar orbit (56 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Solar System
  • Gravitation

His main research concerns Remote sensing, Terrestrial reference frame, Gravitational field, Geodetic datum and International Terrestrial Reference System. When carried out as part of a general Remote sensing research project, his work on Altimeter is frequently linked to work in Polar motion, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Frank G. Lemoine has included themes like Spacecraft, Planetary science, Orbiter and Scientific instrument in his Altimeter study.

His Terrestrial reference frame study incorporates themes from Satellite and Satellite laser ranging. In his work, Geodesy is strongly intertwined with Astrobiology, which is a subfield of Gravitational field. His work deals with themes such as Systems engineering, Satellite system, Earth observation, Global network and Very-long-baseline interferometry, which intersect with Geodetic datum.
