Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Ecology
  • Statistics

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Climate model, Climate change, Precipitation and Meteorology. The concepts of his Climatology study are interwoven with issues in Land cover, Atmosphere, Evapotranspiration and Albedo. His Climate model study combines topics in areas such as Weather prediction, Downscaling, Biome, Atmospheric circulation and Atmospheric temperature.

His studies examine the connections between Climate change and genetics, as well as such issues in Environmental protection, with regards to Economic growth and Effects of global warming. His Precipitation research includes elements of Divergence, Deforestation, Atmospheric sciences, Plant growth and Water content. His Sensible heat and Latent heat study in the realm of Meteorology interacts with subjects such as Surface.

His most cited work include:

  • Regions of strong coupling between soil moisture and precipitation. (1872 citations)
  • The evolution of, and revolution in, land surface schemes designed for climate models (540 citations)
  • GLACE: The Global Land-Atmosphere Coupling Experiment. Part I: Overview (521 citations)

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

His main research concerns Climatology, Climate model, Climate change, Atmospheric sciences and Precipitation. His Climatology research incorporates themes from Latent heat, Atmosphere, Meteorology, Land cover and Vegetation. The various areas that he examines in his Latent heat study include Sensible heat and Available energy.

His Meteorology research includes themes of Range and Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project. While the research belongs to areas of Climate model, he spends his time largely on the problem of Surface runoff, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Snow. His studies deal with areas such as Forecast skill and Greenhouse gas as well as Climate change.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (49.83%)
  • Climate model (32.87%)
  • Climate change (28.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Climatology (49.83%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (21.11%)
  • Climate change (28.72%)

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

Andrew J. Pitman focuses on Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Climate change, Climate model and Atmosphere. His Climatology course of study focuses on Precipitation and Pan evaporation, Environmental studies and Mode. His Atmospheric sciences research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Latent heat and Eddy covariance, FluxNet, Ecosystem.

His Coupled model intercomparison project study in the realm of Climate change connects with subjects such as Psychological resilience. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Advection, Subsidence, Atmospheric model and Boundary layer. His research in Sensible heat tackles topics such as Water content which are related to areas like Soil science.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Future climate risk from compound events (317 citations)
  • Land radiative management as contributor to regional-scale climate adaptation and mitigation (47 citations)
  • The role of climate variability in Australian drought (24 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Ecology
  • Statistics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Atmospheric sciences, Climate change, Water content, Climatology and Eddy covariance. Andrew J. Pitman interconnects Atmosphere, Heat wave, FluxNet and Ecosystem in the investigation of issues within Atmospheric sciences. His work in Climate change addresses subjects such as Greenhouse gas, which are connected to disciplines such as Ecosystem services, Agriculture, Climate engineering, Land management and Natural resource economics.

His research in Water content intersects with topics in Soil science, Evapotranspiration, Growing season and Coupling. His study in Climatology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate model, Hydrology and Precipitation. His Precipitation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Environmental studies, Adaptation and Mode.
