Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Aerosol
  • Atmospheric sciences

Ben Johnson mainly focuses on Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol, Climatology, Radiative forcing and Mineral dust. His Atmospheric sciences study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Volcanic ash. Ben Johnson interconnects Smoke, Climate model and Outflow in the investigation of issues within Aerosol.

Ben Johnson has included themes like Atmosphere, Cloud cover, Cloud physics, Shortwave and Biogeochemistry in his Radiative forcing study. His study in Cloud cover is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Albedo, Liquid water path, Forcing and Marine stratocumulus. The various areas that Ben Johnson examines in his Mineral dust study include Monsoon, Single-scattering albedo, Shortwave radiation and Atmospheric model.

His most cited work include:

  • The Met Office Unified Model Global Atmosphere 7.0/7.1 and JULES Global Land 7.0 configurations (524 citations)
  • The semi‐direct aerosol effect: Impact of absorbing aerosols on marine stratocumulus (278 citations)
  • Aging of biomass burning aerosols over West Africa: Aircraft measurements of chemical composition, microphysical properties, and emission ratios (177 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol, Meteorology, Climatology and Radiative forcing. He has researched Atmospheric sciences in several fields, including Atmosphere, Climate model, Mineral dust, Biomass burning and Lidar. His research in Aerosol focuses on subjects like Numerical weather prediction, which are connected to Geostationary Earth Radiation Budget.

Ben Johnson works mostly in the field of Meteorology, limiting it down to topics relating to Volcanic ash and, in certain cases, In situ and Remote sensing. The Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Albedo, Cloud cover and Shortwave radiation. His Radiative forcing research focuses on Liquid water path and how it connects with Cloud fraction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (73.47%)
  • Aerosol (56.12%)
  • Meteorology (24.49%)

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

  • Atmospheric sciences (73.47%)
  • Aerosol (56.12%)
  • Radiative forcing (22.45%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol, Radiative forcing, Climate model and Coupled model intercomparison project. His work on Forcing as part of general Atmospheric sciences research is frequently linked to Smouldering, bridging the gap between disciplines. Ben Johnson studies Mineral dust which is a part of Aerosol.

His Mineral dust research incorporates themes from Atmospheric models and Moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer. His Radiative forcing research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Icelandic Low, Tropical rain belt and Ozone. His Coupled model intercomparison project study deals with Northern Hemisphere intersecting with Microphysics, Sulfate aerosol, Outflow, Anticyclone and Intertropical Convergence Zone.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • UKESM1: Description and Evaluation of the U.K. Earth System Model (105 citations)
  • Implementation of U.K. Earth system models for CMIP6 (20 citations)
  • Ensembles of Global Climate Model Variants Designed for the Quantification and Constraint of Uncertainty in Aerosols and Their Radiative Forcing (12 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Aerosol
  • Atmosphere

Ben Johnson spends much of his time researching Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol, Radiative forcing, Precipitation and Climate model. Atmospheric sciences is often connected to Coupled model intercomparison project in his work. His Aerosol research includes elements of Microphysics, Northern Hemisphere and Outflow.

His work in Radiative forcing addresses subjects such as Atmosphere, which are connected to disciplines such as Stratosphere, Biogeochemical cycle, Climate sensitivity and Biogeochemistry. His Precipitation research includes themes of In situ, Evaporation, Atmospheric circulation and Atmospheric instability. His Climate model study combines topics in areas such as Convection and Atmospheric chemistry.
