Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Climatology

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Thermocline, Water mass, Gulf Stream and Climatology. Her research on Oceanography often connects related topics like Structural basin. Her Thermocline research incorporates themes from Shoaling and schooling, Pressure-gradient force, MIT General Circulation Model and Circulation.

Her research in Water mass intersects with topics in North Atlantic Deep Water and Thermohaline circulation. Amy S. Bower has researched Gulf Stream in several fields, including Isopycnal and Meander. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Salinity, Relative dispersion and Eddy.

Her most cited work include:

  • A census of Meddies tracked by floats (205 citations)
  • Evidence of Cross-Frontal Exchange Processes in the Gulf Stream Based on Isopycnal RAFOS Float Data (189 citations)
  • Interior pathways of the North Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (186 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Climatology, Eddy, Boundary current and Ocean current. Her work on Structural basin expands to the thematically related Oceanography. In the field of Climatology, her study on North Atlantic Deep Water, Mesoscale meteorology, Shutdown of thermohaline circulation and Baroclinity overlaps with subjects such as Environmental science.

Her Boundary current research also works with subjects such as

  • Gulf Stream and related Latitude of the Gulf Stream and the Gulf Stream north wall index, Meander, Isopycnal, Thermocline and Potential vorticity,
  • Continental shelf that intertwine with fields like Ocean general circulation model. The study incorporates disciplines such as Drifter and Physical oceanography in addition to Ocean current. Within one scientific family, Amy S. Bower focuses on topics pertaining to Thermohaline circulation under Water mass, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Oceanic basin.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (72.32%)
  • Climatology (30.36%)
  • Eddy (22.32%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Oceanography (72.32%)
  • Structural basin (11.61%)
  • Eddy (22.32%)

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

Amy S. Bower mainly investigates Oceanography, Structural basin, Eddy, Fracture zone and Mesoscale meteorology. Her Oceanography study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Circulation. Amy S. Bower has included themes like Water mass, Ocean current, Instability and Anticyclone in her Eddy study.

In her research, Thermohaline circulation is intimately related to Drifter, which falls under the overarching field of Boundary current. Her work deals with themes such as Physical oceanography and Latitude, which intersect with Climatology. She interconnects Current meter and Potential vorticity in the investigation of issues within Hydrography.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A sea change in our view of overturning in the subpolar North Atlantic (127 citations)
  • Overturning in the Subpolar North Atlantic Program: A New International Ocean Observing System (106 citations)
  • Dominant Circulation Patterns of the Deep Gulf of Mexico (19 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Mechanics
  • Kinematics

Amy S. Bower mostly deals with Oceanography, Structural basin, Mesoscale meteorology, Climatology and Abyssal circulation. Her study looks at the relationship between Oceanography and topics such as Eddy, which overlap with Potential vorticity. Her work on North Atlantic Deep Water as part of general Climatology research is frequently linked to Environmental science, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her Abyssal circulation research incorporates elements of Trajectory and Boundary current. The various areas that she examines in her Hydrography study include Current meter and Ocean gyre. Her Water mass research integrates issues from Deep sea, Convection, Thermohaline circulation, Latitude and Subarctic climate.
