Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Dr. James Dottin is an Assistant Professor at John Brown University whose research integrates astro and planetary science with geological and geochemical analysis. His work particularly focuses on planetary science and exploration, geology and paleoclimatology, and the paleontology and stratigraphy of fossils. Dottin's investigations often employ isotopic analysis to understand the formation and evolution of planetary bodies. Recent publications have explored the isotopic composition of lunar mare basalts, examining the effects of eruption style and pressure on volatile element fractionation on the Moon. He has also presented isotopic evidence of sulfur photochemistry during lunar regolith formation and identified anomalous 33S signatures in the lunar mantle. Furthermore, his research extends to Earth, with studies on sulfur isotope anomalies in Pitcairn basalts and geochemical zonations within the Samoan mantle plume.
