Overview

Charles A. Doswell is affiliated with the University of Oklahoma in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on environmental science and earth and planetary sciences, with a particular emphasis on atmospheric science and global and planetary change. The subfields of study also include health, toxicology and mutagenesis, sociology and political science, and environmental engineering.

The scientist's work covers a variety of topics, including:

  • Meteorological phenomena and simulations
  • Climate variability and models
  • Tropical and extratropical cyclones research
  • Plant water relations and carbon dynamics
  • Precipitation measurement and analysis
  • Hydrology and drought analysis
  • Tree-ring climate responses

Doswell has contributed extensively to the E-Journal of Severe Storms Meteorology, publishing nine papers in that venue, as well as one publication in Weather Climate and Society.

Some recent papers authored or coauthored by Doswell include:

  • "On the Use of Indices and Parameters in Forecasting Severe Storms" (2021, E-Journal of Severe Storms Meteorology)
  • "Small Sample Size and Data Quality Issues Illustrated Using Tornado Occurrence Data" (2021, E-Journal of Severe Storms Meteorology)
  • "Comparison of Two Cold Fronts - Effects of the Planetary Boundary Layer on the Mesoscale" (2021, E-Journal of Severe Storms Meteorology)

Among their frequent coauthors are:

  • Chad Schafer
  • Robert H. Johns
  • Donald W. Burgess
  • Matthew S. Gilmore
  • John A. Hart

The intersection of meteorological phenomena and climate variability features prominently in Doswell's work, reflecting research efforts that span severe weather forecasting, storm system analysis, and related environmental factors.
