Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Thermodynamics
  • Meteorology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Baroclinity, Barotropic fluid, Mechanics and Atmospheric sciences. In general Oceanography, his work in Continental shelf is often linked to Isoprene linking many areas of study. His studies in Baroclinity integrate themes in fields like Jet, Stratification and Potential vorticity.

His Potential vorticity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Climatology, Zonal and meridional and Length scale. His Barotropic fluid study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Turbulence, Eddy diffusion and Vorticity. His work on Wind stress as part of his general Atmospheric sciences study is frequently connected to Meander, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His most cited work include:

  • X-ray Structure of the FimC-FimH Chaperone-Adhesin Complex from Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (531 citations)
  • Multidecadal warming of Antarctic waters (226 citations)
  • Antarctic sea ice control on ocean circulation in present and glacial climates. (198 citations)

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

Andrew F. Thompson mostly deals with Oceanography, Climatology, Continental shelf, Eddy and Geophysics. His work on Thermohaline circulation, Ocean dynamics and Wind stress is typically connected to Ocean gyre as part of general Climatology study, connecting several disciplines of science. His research investigates the link between Thermohaline circulation and topics such as Stratification that cross with problems in Atmospheric sciences.

His work in Continental shelf tackles topics such as Drifter which are related to areas like Dispersion. His Eddy research incorporates elements of Eddy diffusion, Baroclinity, Ocean current and Mesoscale meteorology. His Geophysics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Enceladus, Convection and Potential vorticity.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (45.12%)
  • Climatology (20.73%)
  • Continental shelf (14.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Oceanography (45.12%)
  • Meltwater (3.66%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (11.59%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Oceanography, Meltwater, Atmospheric sciences, Ocean current and Eddy. He interconnects Forcing and Circulation in the investigation of issues within Oceanography. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates themes from Mesoscale eddies, Mixed layer and Seasonality.

As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Ocean current, focusing on Sea-surface height and, on occasion, Throughflow, Atlantic hurricane, Artificial intelligence and Baroclinity. His studies deal with areas such as Sea ice and Mesoscale meteorology as well as Eddy. His Ice shelf study incorporates themes from Antarctic ice sheet, Continental shelf and Circumpolar deep water.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Enhanced upward heat transport at deep submesoscale ocean fronts (17 citations)
  • Enhanced eddy activity in the Beaufort Gyre in response to sea ice loss. (12 citations)
  • Submesoscale fronts in the Antarctic marginal ice zone and their response to wind forcing (5 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Thermodynamics
  • Meteorology

Atmospheric sciences, Eddy, Ocean current, Mixed layer and Magnitude are his primary areas of study. He combines subjects such as Stratification, Wind forcing and Underwater with his study of Atmospheric sciences. His Eddy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Deep learning, Sea-surface height and Mesoscale meteorology.

His Ocean current study combines topics in areas such as Mooring, Ocean surface topography and Glider. He has researched Mixed layer in several fields, including Instability, Seasonality, Pelagic zone, Seasonal cycle and Marginal ice zone. The Sea ice study combines topics in areas such as Lead and Ekman transport.
