What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Sedimentary rock
- Basalt
- Erosion
His main research concerns Mars Exploration Program, Impact crater, Geochemistry, Sedimentary rock and Mineralogy.
His work on Mars Exploration Program is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Earth science.
His studies in Impact crater integrate themes in fields like Basalt, Composition of Mars, Geologic Sediments and Volcanic rock.
His research in Geochemistry focuses on subjects like Geomorphology, which are connected to Denudation and Hesperian.
His Sedimentary rock research incorporates themes from Erosion, Diagenesis and Meridiani Planum.
His work carried out in the field of Water on Mars brings together such families of science as Orbiter, Fluvial and Exploration of Mars.
His most cited work include:
- Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) (1011 citations)
- Overview of the Spirit Mars Exploration Rover Mission to Gusev Crater: Landing site to Backstay Rock in the Columbia Hills (568 citations)
- Hydrated silicate minerals on Mars observed by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter CRISM instrument (525 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
John A. Grant spends much of his time researching Mars Exploration Program, Impact crater, Geochemistry, Geomorphology and Meridiani Planum.
His Mars Exploration Program research focuses on subjects like Fluvial, which are linked to Alluvium.
As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Impact crater, narrowing it down to issues related to the Noachian, and often Lithology.
His Geochemistry study frequently links to other fields, such as Stratigraphy.
In general Geomorphology study, his work on Mass wasting, Structural basin and Bedrock often relates to the realm of Layering, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
His work deals with themes such as Lava, Mineralogy and Volcanic rock, which intersect with Basalt.
He most often published in these fields:
- Mars Exploration Program (64.17%)
- Impact crater (44.17%)
- Geochemistry (28.33%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Mars Exploration Program (64.17%)
- Impact crater (44.17%)
- Geochemistry (28.33%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
John A. Grant mainly investigates Mars Exploration Program, Impact crater, Geochemistry, Aeolian processes and Alluvial fan.
His study in Mars Exploration Program is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Bedform, Fluvial and Geomorphology.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Paleontology and Noachian in addition to Impact crater.
His Noachian research integrates issues from Mars exploration rover, Lithology and Meridiani Planum.
His Geochemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Structural basin, Stratigraphy and Hesperian.
His Aeolian processes research includes elements of Degradation, Mineralogy and Geophysics.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Initial results from the InSight mission on Mars (77 citations)
- Geology of the InSight landing site on Mars (33 citations)
- Sand Grain Sizes and Shapes in Eolian Bedforms at Gale Crater, Mars (25 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Sedimentary rock
- Erosion
- Basalt
John A. Grant mostly deals with Mars Exploration Program, Impact crater, Geochemistry, Alluvial fan and Aeolian processes.
His Mars rover study in the realm of Mars Exploration Program interacts with subjects such as Site selection.
His Impact crater research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Intraplate earthquake, Seismometer and Geophysics.
John A. Grant has included themes like Gale crater and Hesperian in his Geochemistry study.
His Hesperian study incorporates themes from Noachian, Vein, Meridiani Planum, Breccia and Lithology.
His studies deal with areas such as Mineralogy and Degradation as well as Aeolian processes.
