Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Psychology
  • Agriculture

Athanasios T. Vafeidis spends much of his time researching Climate change, Coastal flood, Wetland, Physical geography and Environmental protection. Athanasios T. Vafeidis interconnects Data model, Database and Environmental resource management in the investigation of issues within Climate change. His Environmental resource management research includes themes of Climate model, Coupled model intercomparison project, Loss and damage, Flood myth and Indirect costs.

The Coastal flood study combines topics in areas such as Climatology and Coastal zone. His study in Wetland is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sea level, Salt marsh and Threatened species. His Environmental protection study also includes fields such as

  • Natural resource economics which is related to area like Arctic,
  • Flooding, which have a strong connection to Coastal hazards, Storm surge, Urbanization and Population growth.

His most cited work include:

  • Future coastal population growth and exposure to sea-level rise and coastal flooding--a global assessment. (785 citations)
  • Coastal flood damage and adaptation costs under 21st century sea-level rise (518 citations)
  • Future response of global coastal wetlands to sea-level rise (214 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Coastal flood, Environmental resource management, Climate change, Flood myth and Sea level rise. His research integrates issues of Hydrology, Flooding, Physical geography and Storm surge in his study of Coastal flood. His studies deal with areas such as Urbanization and Wetland as well as Physical geography.

As a member of one scientific family, Athanasios T. Vafeidis mostly works in the field of Environmental resource management, focusing on Adaptation and, on occasion, Service, Risk management and Sustainability. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Environmental protection under Climate change, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Population growth and Global warming. The study incorporates disciplines such as Floodplain, Climatology and Natural hazard in addition to Flood myth.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Coastal flood (33.93%)
  • Environmental resource management (23.21%)
  • Climate change (17.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Coastal flood (33.93%)
  • Flood myth (17.86%)
  • Environmental resource management (23.21%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Coastal flood, Flood myth, Environmental resource management, Sea level rise and Sea level. His Coastal flood study is concerned with Climate change in general. His Flood myth research includes elements of Climatology and Storm surge.

Athanasios T. Vafeidis studied Environmental resource management and Mediterranean climate that intersect with Economic geography and Urbanization. His Sea level rise study incorporates themes from Economy, Coastal development and Wetland. His work focuses on many connections between Wetland and other disciplines, such as Physical geography, that overlap with his field of interest in Subsidence and Groundwater.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A multi-criteria approach for assessing urban flood resilience in Tehran, Iran (46 citations)
  • Generic adaptation pathways for coastal archetypes under uncertain sea-level rise (23 citations)
  • Non-linear interaction modulates global extreme sea levels, coastal flood exposure, and impacts. (16 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Agriculture
  • Oceanography

Athanasios T. Vafeidis mainly focuses on Coastal flood, Flood myth, Climate change, Environmental resource management and Oceanography. His Coastal flood research covers fields of interest such as Impact assessment, Space, Lead, Variety and Archetype. Much of his study explores Flood myth relationship to Environmental planning.

His Climate change research integrates issues from Risk assessment and Nature Conservation. His Environmental resource management research focuses on subjects like Mediterranean climate, which are linked to Coastal development, Coastal zone and Sea level rise. His work on Baltic sea and Storm surge as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Surge, German and Stochastic modelling, bridging the gap between disciplines.
