Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Optics
  • Infrared

His scientific interests lie mostly in Impact crater, Basalt, Orbiter, Geophysics and Lunar mare. Impact crater is a primary field of his research addressed under Astrobiology. His work focuses on many connections between Orbiter and other disciplines, such as Volcanism, that overlap with his field of interest in Silicic.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Rille, Transient lunar phenomenon and Mars Exploration Program. His Mars Exploration Program study combines topics in areas such as Snow and Glacial period, Paleontology, Rock glacier. His study in Earth science is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Geochemistry and Lunar geologic timescale.

His most cited work include:

  • Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) Instrument Overview (490 citations)
  • Possible Ancient Oceans on Mars: Evidence from Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter Data (309 citations)
  • Ages and stratigraphy of mare basalts in Oceanus Procellarum, Mare Nubium, Mare Cognitum, and Mare Insularum (275 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Impact crater, Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Geomorphology and Remote sensing. His Impact crater research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Volcano, Geochemistry, Basalt, Geophysics and Geologic map. Specifically, his work in Basalt is concerned with the study of Lunar mare.

His Mars Exploration Program study incorporates themes from Structural basin, Paleontology, Landform and Earth science. His Astrobiology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Planet. His Remote sensing research includes elements of Mercury, Spectrometer, Imaging spectrometer and Orbiter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Impact crater (32.39%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (24.73%)
  • Astrobiology (21.01%)

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

  • Impact crater (32.39%)
  • Mercury (10.72%)
  • Mars Exploration Program (24.73%)

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

Harald Hiesinger focuses on Impact crater, Mercury, Mars Exploration Program, Mineralogy and Environmental science. His Impact crater research includes themes of Geochemistry, Basalt and Geologic map, Geomorphology. Harald Hiesinger interconnects Volcano and Digital elevation model in the investigation of issues within Basalt.

His Mars Exploration Program research incorporates elements of Temporal database, Atmospheric sciences and Mass wasting. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Chondrite and Reflectivity. As part of one scientific family, Harald Hiesinger deals mainly with the area of Astrobiology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Cosmogenic nuclide, and often Regolith.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bright carbonate surfaces on Ceres as remnants of salt-rich water fountains (30 citations)
  • Lunar farside volcanism in and around the South Pole–Aitken basin (28 citations)
  • Geologic constraints on the origin of red organic‐rich material on Ceres (26 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Optics
  • Infrared

Harald Hiesinger mainly investigates Impact crater, Mineralogy, Mars Exploration Program, Basalt and Paleontology. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Geomorphology under Impact crater, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Thermokarst and Terrain. Many of his research projects under Mars Exploration Program are closely connected to Defrosting with Defrosting, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His research in Basalt intersects with topics in Geologic map and Orbiter. The Paleontology study which covers Late Heavy Bombardment that intersects with Mercury. His work deals with themes such as Structural basin and Plateau, which intersect with Geochemistry.
