Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climatology
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

His primary scientific interests are in Climatology, Sea surface temperature, Atmosphere, Climate change and Anomaly. His Climatology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Meteorology and Climate model. His research on Sea surface temperature frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Teleconnection.

In his study, Subtropics, Tropical Eastern Pacific, Middle latitudes, Intertropical Convergence Zone and Seasonal cycle is strongly linked to General Circulation Model, which falls under the umbrella field of Atmosphere. His research in the fields of Coupled model intercomparison project overlaps with other disciplines such as Term and Process. His Anomaly research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Wind stress and Atmospheric circulation.

His most cited work include:

  • El Niño in a changing climate (1062 citations)
  • Decadal Prediction: Can It Be Skillful? (531 citations)
  • The North American multimodel ensemble: Phase-1 seasonal-to-interannual prediction; phase-2 toward developing intraseasonal prediction (509 citations)

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

Ben P. Kirtman mainly focuses on Climatology, Sea surface temperature, Atmospheric sciences, El Niño Southern Oscillation and Climate model. His Climatology research incorporates elements of Atmosphere, Meteorology and Precipitation. Ben P. Kirtman has researched Sea surface temperature in several fields, including Wind stress, Ocean current, General Circulation Model, Monsoon and Teleconnection.

His Atmospheric sciences study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Thermocline, Convection, Atmospheric model and Mesoscale meteorology. The El Niño Southern Oscillation study combines topics in areas such as Oceanography and Indian ocean. His Climate model study introduces a deeper knowledge of Climate change.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (84.58%)
  • Sea surface temperature (34.36%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (20.70%)

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

  • Climatology (84.58%)
  • Climate model (15.86%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (20.70%)

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

Ben P. Kirtman focuses on Climatology, Climate model, Atmospheric sciences, Sea surface temperature and Precipitation. His Climatology study frequently links to related topics such as Climate change. His Climate model study combines topics in areas such as Indian ocean and Environmental resource management.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Atmospheric sciences, Convection, Rossby radius of deformation and Baroclinity is strongly linked to Mesoscale meteorology. Ben P. Kirtman combines subjects such as General Circulation Model, Atmosphere and Ocean current with his study of Sea surface temperature. Ben P. Kirtman works mostly in the field of Precipitation, limiting it down to concerns involving Sensitivity and, occasionally, Tropics and Tropical rainfall.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Decadal Climate Prediction Project (DCPP) contribution to CMIP6 (121 citations)
  • Increasing flooding hazard in coastal communities due to rising sea level: Case study of Miami Beach, Florida (90 citations)
  • The Subseasonal Experiment (SubX): A Multimodel Subseasonal Prediction Experiment (52 citations)

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

  • Climatology
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

Ben P. Kirtman spends much of his time researching Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Climate change, El Niño Southern Oscillation and Sea surface temperature. His studies deal with areas such as Meteorology, Precipitation and Community Climate System Model as well as Climatology. The various areas that Ben P. Kirtman examines in his Atmospheric sciences study include Thermocline, Spring and Upwelling.

Ben P. Kirtman interconnects Pacific decadal oscillation and Ocean current in the investigation of issues within Climate change. His studies in El Niño Southern Oscillation integrate themes in fields like Storm, Atmosphere and Wind forcing. His work carried out in the field of Sea surface temperature brings together such families of science as Troposphere, Convection, Climate model and Eddy.
