What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Basalt
- Mineral
- Igneous rock
Richard C. Greenwood spends much of his time researching Meteorite, Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Astrobiology and Chondrite.
His studies deal with areas such as Trace element and Olivine as well as Meteorite.
His work in Geochemistry tackles topics such as Matrix which are related to areas like Group and Clastic rock.
The Mineralogy study combines topics in areas such as Impact crater, Isotopes of oxygen and Analytical chemistry.
When carried out as part of a general Analytical chemistry research project, his work on Mass spectrometry is frequently linked to work in Cathodoluminescence, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His works in Chondrule and Hibonite are all subjects of inquiry into Chondrite.
His most cited work include:
- Further characterisation of the 91500 zircon crystal (812 citations)
- Widespread magma oceans on asteroidal bodies in the early Solar System (233 citations)
- An isotopic and petrologic study of calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions from CO3 meteorites (141 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Geochemistry, Meteorite, Chondrite, Isotopes of oxygen and Astrobiology.
Richard C. Greenwood interconnects Eucrite and Mineralogy in the investigation of issues within Geochemistry.
His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mineral and Silicate.
His Parent body, Achondrite, Howardite, Diogenite and Allende meteorite study are his primary interests in Meteorite.
His Chondrite study combines topics in areas such as Melilite, Petrography and Analytical chemistry.
Isotopes of oxygen and Metamorphic rock are commonly linked in his work.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Geochemistry, Chondrite, Meteorite, Astrobiology and Isotopes of oxygen.
His Chondrite study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cosmochemistry and Mineralogy.
In his research on the topic of Mineralogy, Primitive achondrite is strongly related with Howardite.
The concepts of his Meteorite study are interwoven with issues in Fayalite, Radius, Plagioclase and Asteroid.
His work on Solar System, Planetesimal and Mars Exploration Program as part of general Astrobiology research is often related to Population, thus linking different fields of science.
His Isotopes of oxygen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Trace element and Isotope fractionation, Equilibrium fractionation.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Melting and differentiation of early-formed asteroids: The perspective from high precision oxygen isotope studies (72 citations)
- Oxygen isotopic evidence for accretion of Earth’s water before a high-energy Moon-forming giant impact (51 citations)
- A mutli-technique search for the most primitive CO chondrites (36 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Basalt
- Mineral
- Igneous rock
His scientific interests lie mostly in Chondrite, Meteorite, Geochemistry, Parent body and Mineralogy.
In his study, δ18O and Quartz is inextricably linked to Olivine, which falls within the broad field of Chondrite.
His Meteorite study incorporates themes from Basalt, Isotopes of oxygen and Asteroid.
His Isotopes of oxygen research includes elements of Inorganic chemistry and Trace element.
Richard C. Greenwood works mostly in the field of Geochemistry, limiting it down to concerns involving Ordinary chondrite and, occasionally, Formation and evolution of the Solar System, Matrix and Metamorphism.
His research integrates issues of Ferrous, Banded iron formation and Isotope fractionation, Equilibrium fractionation in his study of Mineralogy.
