Key topics include Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics, Tree-ring Climate Responses, Forest Ecology and Management, Climate Variability and Models, Meteorological Phenomena and Simulations, Ecology and Vegetation Dynamics Studies, and Species Distribution and Climate Change.

Recent publications illustrate their contributions across various high-impact journals. These include:

  • "ClimateEU, scale-free climate normals, historical time series, and future projections for Europe," 2020, Scientific Data
  • "A global climate model ensemble for downscaled monthly climate normals over North America," 2022, International Journal of Climatology
  • "Moisture deficits limit growth of white spruce in the west-central boreal forest of North America," 2020, Forest Ecology and Management
  • "Genetic parameters of growth and adaptive traits in aspen (Populus tremuloides): Implications for tree breeding in a warming world," 2020, PLoS ONE
  • "Outlier detection methods to improve the quality of citizen science data," 2020, International Journal of Biometeorology

Andreas Hamann commonly collaborates with several researchers. Frequent coauthors include Zihaohan Sang, Dante Castellanos-Acuña, Tongli Wang, Annette Menzel, and Jaime Sebastian-Azcona.

They publish regularly in several journals, with multiple contributions to Forest Ecology and Management, Scientific Data, International Journal of Climatology, PLoS ONE, and Frontiers in Plant Science.
