Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Oceanography

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Climate change, Thermohaline circulation, Climate model and Global warming. He has researched Climatology in several fields, including Snow, Ocean general circulation model and Precipitation. His Climate change study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Greenhouse gas.

His study in Thermohaline circulation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ocean current, Forcing and Coupled model intercomparison project. His research in Climate model intersects with topics in Sea ice growth processes, Atmospheric sciences, Sea ice concentration and Earth system science. His Runaway climate change and Effects of global warming study, which is part of a larger body of work in Global warming, is frequently linked to Research centre, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Global climate projections (3400 citations)
  • Climate–Carbon Cycle Feedback Analysis: Results from the C4MIP Model Intercomparison (2236 citations)
  • The Science of Climate Change (1471 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Climate model, Oceanography, Thermohaline circulation and Climate change. His Climatology study frequently links to related topics such as Global warming. Andrew J. Weaver combines subjects such as Fossil fuel and Physical geography with his study of Global warming.

His Climate model research incorporates elements of Albedo, Atmospheric sciences, Downscaling, Precipitation and Earth system science. His work on Shutdown of thermohaline circulation as part of general Thermohaline circulation research is frequently linked to Boundary value problem, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Carbon cycle and Greenhouse gas.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (64.32%)
  • Climate model (28.63%)
  • Oceanography (25.31%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2017)?

  • Climatology (64.32%)
  • Climate change (22.41%)
  • Climate model (28.63%)

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

Andrew J. Weaver mostly deals with Climatology, Climate change, Climate model, Atmospheric sciences and Global warming. He has included themes like Atmosphere, Precipitation and Ice sheet in his Climatology study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Greenhouse gas and Earth system science in addition to Climate change.

His Climate model research integrates issues from Atmospheric carbon cycle, Carbon cycle, Permafrost, Current and Climate state. His studies in Global warming integrate themes in fields like Fossil fuel and Carbon dioxide removal. The Thermohaline circulation study combines topics in areas such as Representative Concentration Pathways and Ocean current.

Between 2009 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Long-term Climate Change: Projections, Commitments and Irreversibility (1324 citations)
  • Carbon dioxide and climate impulse response functions for the computation of greenhouse gas metrics:a multi-model analysis (351 citations)
  • Consequences of twenty-first-century policy for multi-millennial climate and sea-level change (231 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Oceanography

His main research concerns Climatology, Climate change, Global warming, Climate model and Thermohaline circulation. His work carried out in the field of Climatology brings together such families of science as Greenland ice sheet and Ice sheet. His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Greenhouse gas and Earth system science.

His work on Effects of global warming as part of his general Global warming study is frequently connected to Certainty, Turning point and Blame, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Climate model research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Atmospheric carbon cycle, Permafrost carbon cycle, Runaway climate change, Atmospheric sciences and Circumpolar star. His Thermohaline circulation research includes themes of Current, Sea ice, Representative Concentration Pathways and Ocean current.
