Chris W. Hughes

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Oceanography
• Meteorology
• Climatology

Chris W. Hughes focuses on Climatology, Oceanography, Ocean current, Altimeter and Sea level. In his research on the topic of Climatology, Circulation and Buoyancy is strongly related with Current. His work on Ocean surface topography and Carbon mitigation as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Eddy field, Strategic research and Research council, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Ocean current research integrates issues from Circumpolar star and Wind stress. The various areas that Chris W. Hughes examines in his Altimeter study include North Atlantic Deep Water, Drifter and Range. In the subject of general Sea level, his work in Tide gauge is often linked to Key terms and Terminology, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His most cited work include:

• Identifying the causes of sea-level change (327 citations)
• The Antarctic Circumpolar Current System (245 citations)
• Near‐surface circulation in the northern North Atlantic as inferred from Lagrangian drifters: Variability from the mesoscale to interannual (138 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Sea level, Oceanography, Ocean current and Tide gauge. His work in Climatology addresses issues such as Latitude, which are connected to fields such as Zonal and meridional and Current. His research integrates issues of Continental shelf, Range, Baroclinity and Coastal sea in his study of Sea level.

As part of his studies on Oceanography, Chris W. Hughes often connects relevant areas like Oceanic basin. His research investigates the link between Ocean current and topics such as Geophysics that cross with problems in Mesoscale meteorology and Vorticity. His Tide gauge research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Geodetic datum, Geodesy and Satellite altimetry.

He most often published in these fields:

• Climatology (53.59%)
• Sea level (57.46%)
• Oceanography (42.54%)

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

• Sea level (57.46%)
• Oceanography (42.54%)
• Climatology (53.59%)

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

Chris W. Hughes focuses on Sea level, Oceanography, Climatology, Ocean current and Continental shelf. His Sea level research includes themes of Geodetic datum, Sea level rise and Levelling. In his study, Altimeter, Satellite and Geodesy is inextricably linked to Tide gauge, which falls within the broad field of Geodetic datum.

His Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Forcing and Oceanic basin. In his research, Convective storm detection is intimately related to Meteotsunami, which falls under the overarching field of Climatology. His Ocean current research incorporates elements of Polar seas, Remote sensing, Remote sensing, Cryosphere and Sea surface temperature.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Concepts and Terminology for Sea Level: Mean, Variability and Change, Both Local and Global (86 citations)
• Sea Level and the Role of Coastal Trapped Waves in Mediating the Influence of the Open Ocean on the Coast (24 citations)
• Sea Level and the Role of Coastal Trapped Waves in Mediating the Influence of the Open Ocean on the Coast (24 citations)

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

• Oceanography
• Meteorology
• Climate change

Sea level, Ocean current, Climatology, Continental shelf and Climate model are his primary areas of study. He interconnects Geodetic datum, Global and Planetary Change, Downscaling and Environmental resource management in the investigation of issues within Sea level. His Ocean current study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Baroclinity, Wind wave, Future sea level, Current and Data assimilation.

His Climatology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Ocean color. His study on Continental shelf is covered under Oceanography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sea level rise and Coastal sea in addition to Climate model.
