What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
- Ecology
His primary scientific interests are in Paleontology, Proterozoic, Pilbara Craton, Archean and Precambrian.
Paleontology connects with themes related to Chemostratigraphy in his study.
His studies deal with areas such as Ultrastructure, Red algae, Clade and Acritarch as well as Proterozoic.
Malcolm R. Walter interconnects Carbonate platform and Stromatolite in the investigation of issues within Pilbara Craton.
His study looks at the relationship between Archean and topics such as Sedimentary rock, which overlap with Anoxic waters and Continental shelf.
The concepts of his Precambrian study are interwoven with issues in National park, Geothermal energy, Hot spring and Earth science.
His most cited work include:
- Stromatolite reef from the Early Archaean era of Australia (577 citations)
- Stromatolites 3,400–3,500 Myr old from the North Pole area, Western Australia (358 citations)
- Dating the 840–544 Ma Neoproterozoic interval by isotopes of strontium, carbon, and sulfur in seawater, and some interpretative models (332 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Malcolm R. Walter focuses on Paleontology, Archean, Pilbara Craton, Geochemistry and Mars Exploration Program.
His Proterozoic, Precambrian, Structural basin and Sedimentary rock study in the realm of Paleontology interacts with subjects such as North pole.
His research in Proterozoic intersects with topics in Biostratigraphy and Acritarch.
The various areas that Malcolm R. Walter examines in his Archean study include Earth science, Outcrop, Early Earth, Stromatolite and Evaporite.
His Pilbara Craton study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Carbonate platform, Facies, Mineralogy and Clastic rock.
His Geochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sedimentary depositional environment, Carbonate and Hot spring.
He most often published in these fields:
- Paleontology (32.14%)
- Archean (21.43%)
- Pilbara Craton (17.26%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His main research concerns Archean, Pilbara Craton, Geochemistry, Mars Exploration Program and Outcrop.
His research integrates issues of Carbonate, Stromatolite, Dolomite and Earth science in his study of Archean.
Pilbara Craton is the subject of his research, which falls under Paleontology.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Earth, Biosignature and Life on Mars.
His Mars Exploration Program research includes elements of Dome and Ancient history.
His work deals with themes such as Clastic rock and Group, which intersect with Outcrop.
Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Earliest signs of life on land preserved in ca. 3.5 Ga hot spring deposits (109 citations)
- Sulfur-cycling fossil bacteria from the 1.8-Ga Duck Creek Formation provide promising evidence of evolution's null hypothesis. (33 citations)
- Sedimentology, stratigraphy and geochemistry of a stromatolite biofacies in the 2.72 Ga Tumbiana Formation, Fortescue Group, Western Australia (26 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Paleontology
- Sedimentary rock
- Ecology
His primary areas of investigation include Pilbara Craton, Archean, Paleontology, Great Oxygenation Event and Mars Exploration Program.
He works mostly in the field of Pilbara Craton, limiting it down to topics relating to Hydrothermal circulation and, in certain cases, VNIR, Geologic record, Isotopes of carbon and Martian, as a part of the same area of interest.
His Archean research includes themes of Outcrop and Clastic rock.
As part of his studies on Paleontology, he often connects relevant areas like Stromatolite.
His Great Oxygenation Event study incorporates themes from Chemostratigraphy, Siliciclastic, Proterozoic, Calcite and Lithification.
His Mars Exploration Program research integrates issues from Dome, Hyperspectral imaging, Dolomite and Near-infrared spectroscopy.
