Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Paleontology
  • Volcano
  • Sedimentary rock

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Impact crater, Breccia, Earth science, Astrobiology and Petrology. His work in the fields of Impact crater, such as Complex crater, intersects with other areas such as Context. His work is dedicated to discovering how Complex crater, Partial melting are connected with Mineralogy and other disciplines.

He combines subjects such as Impact structure, Stratigraphy and Hypervelocity with his study of Breccia. His Earth science course of study focuses on Paleontology and Extraterrestrial life. The Astrobiology study combines topics in areas such as Transient lunar phenomenon and Terrestrial planet, Planetary body.

His most cited work include:

  • The Chicxulub Asteroid Impact and Mass Extinction at the Cretaceous-Paleogene Boundary (792 citations)
  • Shock metamorphism of quartz in nature and experiment: II. Significance in geoscience* (313 citations)
  • The geophysical signature of terrestrial impact craters (293 citations)

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

Richard A. F. Grieve mainly focuses on Impact crater, Impact structure, Geochemistry, Earth science and Petrology. His Impact crater study combines topics in areas such as Paleontology, Lithology, Terrestrial planet and Hypervelocity. In the subject of general Paleontology, his work in Phanerozoic and Cretaceous is often linked to Extinction event, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Impact structure, Stratigraphy is strongly linked to Breccia. The Geochemistry study which covers Mineralogy that intersects with Planar deformation features. He mostly deals with Dike in his studies of Petrology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Impact crater (52.13%)
  • Impact structure (25.00%)
  • Geochemistry (19.68%)

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

  • Impact crater (52.13%)
  • Impact structure (25.00%)
  • Petrology (20.74%)

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

Richard A. F. Grieve mostly deals with Impact crater, Impact structure, Petrology, Fluidization and Offset. Richard A. F. Grieve has included themes like Geochemistry, Paleontology, Lithology and Mineralogy in his Impact crater study. Richard A. F. Grieve interconnects Bolide and Solar System in the investigation of issues within Geochemistry.

His research investigates the connection between Mineralogy and topics such as Impact velocity that intersect with problems in Geophysics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Geomorphology, Natural, Petrography and Igneous rock in addition to Impact structure. The concepts of his Petrography study are interwoven with issues in Clastic rock, Hypervelocity, Breccia and Phreatomagmatic eruption.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The First Day of the Cenozoic (31 citations)
  • Igneous Rocks Formed by Hypervelocity Impact (25 citations)
  • The “suevite” conundrum, Part 1: The Ries suevite and Sudbury Onaping Formation compared (17 citations)

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

  • Paleontology
  • Volcano
  • Sedimentary rock

His scientific interests lie mostly in Impact crater, Impact structure, Scientific drilling, International Ocean Discovery Program and Fluidization. His Impact crater research incorporates elements of Geochemistry, Lithology and Mars Exploration Program. His research on Geochemistry frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Terrestrial planet.

The various areas that Richard A. F. Grieve examines in his Lithology study include Protolith, Complex crater, Shock metamorphism and Erosion, Geomorphology. Richard A. F. Grieve frequently studies issues relating to Volcano and Impact structure. His Petrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Seismic wave and Magnetic anomaly.
