Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Infrared
  • Aerosol

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Aerosol, Environmental science, Atmospheric sciences, Radiative forcing and Single-scattering albedo. His studies deal with areas such as Precipitation, Remote sensing and Arctic as well as Aerosol. Many of his research projects under Remote sensing are closely connected to Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer with Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His Environmental science research overlaps with Arctic haze and Sea salt. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates elements of Mineral dust, Optical depth, Planetary boundary layer and Climate model. His work on Atmosphere and Humidity is typically connected to Instrumentation and Asymmetry as part of general Meteorology study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Comparison of methods for deriving aerosol asymmetry parameter (194 citations)
  • Indirect and semi-direct aerosol campaign: The impact of Arctic aerosols on clouds (183 citations)
  • Polarimetric remote sensing of aerosols over land (135 citations)

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

His main research concerns Environmental science, Aerosol, Atmospheric sciences, Remote sensing and Meteorology. Many of his Environmental science research pursuits overlap with Water vapor, Sun photometer, Troposphere, Albedo and Climatology. His work carried out in the field of Aerosol brings together such families of science as Lidar, Satellite and Radiometer.

Beat Schmid has researched Atmospheric sciences in several fields, including Planetary boundary layer, Optical depth, Plume and Radiative forcing. His Radiometry study in the realm of Remote sensing interacts with subjects such as Photometer, Spectrometer, Photometry and Instrumentation. In his work, Arctic is strongly intertwined with Climate model, which is a subfield of Meteorology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental science (74.80%)
  • Aerosol (66.67%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (51.22%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Environmental science (74.80%)
  • Meteorology (35.77%)
  • Aerosol (66.67%)

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

Beat Schmid focuses on Environmental science, Meteorology, Aerosol, Atmospheric sciences and Remote sensing. Beat Schmid works mostly in the field of Meteorology, limiting it down to topics relating to Climate model and, in certain cases, Synoptic scale meteorology, Satellite, Cloud physics and Global warming. When carried out as part of a general Aerosol research project, his work on Mineral dust and Sun photometer is frequently linked to work in Ground truth and Errors-in-variables models, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

The Atmospheric sciences study combines topics in areas such as Lidar, Cloud condensation nuclei, Radiative forcing and Precipitation. His Precipitation research incorporates themes from Plume, Water vapor and Altitude. His work on Radiometer and Imaging spectroscopy as part of general Remote sensing study is frequently linked to Airborne visible/infrared imaging spectrometer and Coincident, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Amazon boundary layer aerosol concentration sustained by vertical transport during rainfall (60 citations)
  • Extending “Deep Blue” aerosol retrieval coverage to cases of absorbing aerosols above clouds: Sensitivity analysis and first case studies (35 citations)
  • The Two‐Column Aerosol Project: Phase I—Overview and impact of elevated aerosol layers on aerosol optical depth (26 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Infrared
  • Remote sensing

Beat Schmid focuses on Environmental science, Meteorology, Aerosol, Remote sensing and Atmosphere. His Environmental science study spans across into subjects like Atmospheric sciences, Convection, Precipitation, Troposphere and Scale. His Atmospheric sciences study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Lidar, Optical depth and Nadir.

In the field of Meteorology, his study on Radiosonde, Atmospheric models and Sun photometer overlaps with subjects such as Drone and Errors-in-variables models. He interconnects Radiometer and Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer in the investigation of issues within Aerosol. His Remote sensing research integrates issues from Albedo and Cloud top.
