Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Volcano
  • Basalt

Paul D. Spudis mostly deals with Impact crater, Paleontology, Remote sensing, Geophysics and South Pole–Aitken basin. His study brings together the fields of Solar System and Impact crater. His Structural basin and Topography of the Moon study in the realm of Paleontology interacts with subjects such as Ring.

The Remote sensing study combines topics in areas such as Lunar day, Sunlight, Bistatic radar and Geodesy. His Geophysics study combines topics in areas such as Radar, Radar imaging and Polar. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Mare Crisium, Lunar geologic timescale and Crust.

His most cited work include:

  • The Clementine Bistatic Radar Experiment (361 citations)
  • Volcanism on Mars (317 citations)
  • The Clementine Mission to the Moon: Scientific Overview (315 citations)

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

Paul D. Spudis focuses on Impact crater, Remote sensing, Geochemistry, Basalt and Astrobiology. His Impact crater study incorporates themes from Lava, Structural basin, Geophysics and Radar. Paul D. Spudis has included themes like Orbiter and Radar imaging, Bistatic radar in his Remote sensing study.

In his study, Lunar geologic timescale is inextricably linked to Earth science, which falls within the broad field of Geochemistry. His work is dedicated to discovering how Basalt, Anorthosite are connected with Crust and other disciplines. His Astrobiology research incorporates elements of Robot, Space exploration and Clementine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Impact crater (32.70%)
  • Remote sensing (18.87%)
  • Geochemistry (17.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2019)?

  • Impact crater (32.70%)
  • Remote sensing (18.87%)
  • Geophysics (13.21%)

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

His primary areas of study are Impact crater, Remote sensing, Geophysics, Radar and Synthetic aperture radar. His Impact crater research includes elements of Geochemistry, Structural basin, Regolith and Polar. Paul D. Spudis combines topics linked to Earth science with his work on Geochemistry.

His Structural basin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mare Crisium, Chronology and Topography of the Moon. The Remote sensing study combines topics in areas such as Stokes parameters, Spacecraft, Radar imaging, Bistatic radar and Orbiter. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Radar, Scattering, Selenographic coordinates, Shadow and Latitude is strongly linked to Backscatter.

Between 2009 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Initial results for the north pole of the Moon from Mini‐SAR, Chandrayaan‐1 mission (118 citations)
  • The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Miniature Radio Frequency (Mini-RF) Technology Demonstration (81 citations)
  • Evidence for water ice on the moon: Results for anomalous polar craters from the LRO Mini-RF imaging radar (75 citations)

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

  • Astronomy
  • Volcano
  • Basalt

Impact crater, Geophysics, Regolith, Remote sensing and Radar are his primary areas of study. His research integrates issues of Geochemistry, Basalt and Latitude in his study of Impact crater. The various areas that he examines in his Geophysics study include Volcano, Pyroclastic rock, Antipodal point and Flood basalt.

His Regolith research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Robot and Lunar orbit. The study incorporates disciplines such as Orbiter, Solar System and Bistatic radar in addition to Remote sensing. His Radar research focuses on Polar and how it relates to Shadow, Selenographic coordinates, Backscatter and Albedo.
