- Low Mid-Proterozoic atmospheric oxygen levels and the delayed rise of animals (419 citations)
- The Magnitude and Duration of Late Ordovician–Early Silurian Glaciation (288 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Geochemistry, Mars Exploration Program, Sedimentary rock, Carbonate and Paleontology are his primary areas of study.
Woodward W. Fischer interconnects Gale crater, Mineralogy and Sulfur in the investigation of issues within Geochemistry.
His Mars Exploration Program study combines topics in areas such as Aeolian processes and Manganese.
Woodward W. Fischer combines subjects such as Sedimentary depositional environment, Sediment transport, Earth science and Weathering with his study of Sedimentary rock.
His research in Carbonate focuses on subjects like Carbon cycle, which are connected to Total organic carbon.
