Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Basalt
  • Infrared

James J. Wray focuses on Mars Exploration Program, Martian, Astrobiology, Noachian and Water on Mars. His Mars Exploration Program research includes elements of Geochemistry, Orbiter, Mineralogy and Earth science. His Sample Analysis at Mars study, which is part of a larger body of work in Martian, is frequently linked to Phoenix, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Astrobiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Bedrock, Outcrop, Latitude and High resolution imaging. His study looks at the intersection of Noachian and topics like CRISM with Composition of Mars. His Water on Mars research includes themes of Gale crater, Humidity and Curiosity rover.

His most cited work include:

  • Identification of hydrated silicate minerals on Mars using MRO‐CRISM: Geologic context near Nili Fossae and implications for aqueous alteration (433 citations)
  • Orbital Identification of Carbonate-Bearing Rocks on Mars (432 citations)
  • A synthesis of Martian aqueous mineralogy after 1 Mars year of observations from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (407 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Geochemistry, Martian and Impact crater. James J. Wray interconnects Mineralogy and Earth science in the investigation of issues within Mars Exploration Program. In the field of Astrobiology, his study on Water on Mars, Atmosphere of Mars, Titan and Gale crater overlaps with subjects such as Icy moon.

His work in the fields of Geochemistry, such as Sedimentary rock, Volcano and Outcrop, intersects with other areas such as Stratigraphy and Bearing. The study incorporates disciplines such as Orbiter and Aeolian processes in addition to Martian. The concepts of his Impact crater study are interwoven with issues in Bedrock, Geomorphology and Crust.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mars Exploration Program (65.61%)
  • Astrobiology (39.13%)
  • Geochemistry (24.51%)

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

  • Mars Exploration Program (65.61%)
  • Astrobiology (39.13%)
  • Geochemistry (24.51%)

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

James J. Wray mainly investigates Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Geochemistry, CRISM and Remote sensing. His Mars Exploration Program research focuses on Martian in particular. His work on Titan and Gale crater as part of general Astrobiology study is frequently linked to Cyanoacetylene and Atmospheric radiative transfer codes, bridging the gap between disciplines.

As a part of the same scientific family, James J. Wray mostly works in the field of Geochemistry, focusing on Noachian and, on occasion, Aeolian processes. His study looks at the relationship between CRISM and topics such as Volcano, which overlap with Hesperian and Mud volcano. His work deals with themes such as Orbiter and Resource, which intersect with Remote sensing.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Exposed subsurface ice sheets in the Martian mid-latitudes. (107 citations)
  • Image Simulation and Assessment of the Colour and Spatial Capabilities of the Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) on the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (9 citations)
  • Mineralogic evidence for subglacial volcanism in the Sisyphi Montes region of Mars (8 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Basalt
  • Infrared

James J. Wray mostly deals with Mars Exploration Program, Geochemistry, Outcrop, CRISM and Stratigraphy. His Mars Exploration Program study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pixel, Mantle and Ice sheet. His work carried out in the field of Geochemistry brings together such families of science as Snow, Middle latitudes and Noachian.

His Noachian research incorporates elements of Volcano, Palagonite, Sedimentary depositional environment and Hesperian. His studies in Outcrop integrate themes in fields like Characterization, Spectral line and Mineralogy. His CRISM research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Image resolution, VNIR and Multispectral image.
