- A habitable fluvio-lacustrine environment at Yellowknife Bay, Gale crater, Mars. (499 citations)
- Mars Science Laboratory Mission and Science Investigation (436 citations)
- Deposition, exhumation, and paleoclimate of an ancient lake deposit, Gale crater, Mars. (313 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Roger C. Wiens spends much of his time researching Mars Exploration Program, Astrobiology, Geochemistry, Gale crater and Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy.
Roger C. Wiens combines subjects such as Sedimentary rock, Spectroscopy, Mineralogy and Remote sensing with his study of Mars Exploration Program.
His work deals with themes such as Sedimentary depositional environment and Bedrock, which intersect with Sedimentary rock.
His Astrobiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Planet and Solar wind.
In general Solar wind study, his work on Coronal hole often relates to the realm of Fractionation, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
His Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Spectrometer, Spectral line, Emission spectrum and Partial least squares regression, Analytical chemistry.
