Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock
  • Mineral

Munir Humayun focuses on Mineralogy, Analytical chemistry, Geochemistry, Chondrite and Mantle. His work in the fields of Mineralogy, such as Olivine, intersects with other areas such as Platinum group. His Analytical chemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Laser ablation, Refractory and Refractory metals.

His Geochemistry research includes themes of Permian and Paleontology. His Chondrite research focuses on Formation and evolution of the Solar System and how it connects with Metal. His Mantle research includes elements of Lava and Outer core.

His most cited work include:

  • Passage of Heme-Iron Across the Envelope of Staphylococcus aureus (504 citations)
  • Iron-Source Preference of Staphylococcus aureus Infections (350 citations)
  • Potassium isotope cosmochemistry: Genetic implications of volatile element depletion (263 citations)

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

Munir Humayun mostly deals with Geochemistry, Meteorite, Chondrite, Mineralogy and Mantle. His studies link Achondrite with Geochemistry. His Meteorite course of study focuses on Martian and Crust.

His Chondrite research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Silicate and Analytical chemistry. His Mineralogy study incorporates themes from Fractional crystallization, Metal and Partial melting. He has included themes like Lava, Mantle plume and Outer core in his Mantle study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (44.61%)
  • Meteorite (27.45%)
  • Chondrite (28.43%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Geochemistry (44.61%)
  • Martian (13.73%)
  • Meteorite (27.45%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Geochemistry, Martian, Meteorite, Astrobiology and Mars Exploration Program. His study in Geochemistry focuses on Pyroxene, Breccia, Olivine, Basalt and Mantle. The concepts of his Mantle study are interwoven with issues in Slab, Mantle plume, Petrology and Silicate.

His study in Chondrite and Parent body falls within the category of Meteorite. His work in the fields of Chondrule and Carbonaceous chondrite overlaps with other areas such as Water delivery. His study in Volatiles is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Metal and Analytical chemistry.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • 182W evidence for core-mantle interaction in the source of mantle plumes (33 citations)
  • Geochemical paleoredox indicators in organic-rich shales of the Irati Formation, Permian of the Paraná Basin, southern Brazil (28 citations)
  • Chemical evidence for differentiation, evaporation and recondensation from silicate clasts in Gujba (21 citations)

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

  • Basalt
  • Geochemistry
  • Igneous rock

Munir Humayun mainly investigates Geochemistry, Meteorite, Mantle, Breccia and Martian. His Geochemistry study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Mid-Atlantic Ridge. His biological study focuses on Chondrite.

The various areas that Munir Humayun examines in his Mantle study include Slab, Mantle plume, Basalt and Silicate. His work carried out in the field of Silicate brings together such families of science as Sulfide, Early Earth, Volatiles, Metal and Analytical chemistry. Munir Humayun has researched Breccia in several fields, including Regolith and Clastic rock.
