What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Paleontology
- Ecology
Jack D. Farmer spends much of his time researching Mars Exploration Program, Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Sedimentary rock and Astrobiology. Mars Exploration Program is a component of his Rocknest and Martian studies. His Geochemistry research incorporates themes from Impact crater and Meridiani Planum.
His Impact crater research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Water on Mars, Pigeonite, Meteorite and Composition of Mars. His studies deal with areas such as Microbial mat and Mineral as well as Mineralogy. His work on Extraterrestrial Environment, Extraterrestrial life and Life on Mars as part of general Astrobiology research is often related to Research strategies, thus linking different fields of science.
His most cited work include:
- Overview of the Spirit Mars Exploration Rover Mission to Gusev Crater: Landing site to Backstay Rock in the Columbia Hills (568 citations)
- A habitable fluvio-lacustrine environment at Yellowknife Bay, Gale crater, Mars. (499 citations)
- The Opportunity Rover's Athena science investigation at Meridiani Planum, Mars. (440 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His main research concerns Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Geochemistry, Martian and Mineralogy. His study in Mars Exploration Program is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sedimentary rock, Impact crater and Earth science. Jack D. Farmer has included themes like Remote sensing and Habitability in his Astrobiology study.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Hydrothermal circulation and Meridiani Planum. His Martian research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biosphere and Meteorite. Jack D. Farmer interconnects Rocknest, Mineral and Plagioclase in the investigation of issues within Mineralogy.
