Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Climatology
  • Climate change

Christian Jakob mainly focuses on Climatology, Meteorology, Climate model, Cloud cover and Middle latitudes. The study incorporates disciplines such as Atmospheric sciences, International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project and Precipitation in addition to Climatology. The study of Meteorology is intertwined with the study of Northern Hemisphere in a number of ways.

He works mostly in the field of Climate model, limiting it down to topics relating to Downscaling and, in certain cases, Paleoclimatology, Environmental resource management, Climatic variables and Earth system science, as a part of the same area of interest. Christian Jakob has included themes like Cloud top, Liquid water content, Ice cloud, Earth's energy budget and Diurnal cycle in his Cloud cover study. His work is dedicated to discovering how Middle latitudes, Cold front are connected with Microphysics, Settling, Baroclinity and Advection and other disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Evaluation of climate models (874 citations)
  • Clouds, circulation and climate sensitivity (406 citations)
  • Validation and Sensitivities of Frontal Clouds Simulated by the ECMWF Model (322 citations)

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

Christian Jakob mainly investigates Climatology, Meteorology, Atmospheric sciences, Convection and Precipitation. His research in Climatology intersects with topics in Cloud cover and Climate model. The Meteorology study combines topics in areas such as General Circulation Model and Cloud fraction.

The various areas that Christian Jakob examines in his Atmospheric sciences study include Atmosphere and International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project. His study in the field of Deep convection and Tropical convection is also linked to topics like Parametrization and Stochastic modelling. His Precipitation study deals with Diurnal cycle intersecting with Sunrise, Daytime and Forcing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (63.25%)
  • Meteorology (45.78%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (37.95%)

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

  • Convection (31.93%)
  • Climatology (63.25%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (37.95%)

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

Christian Jakob mostly deals with Convection, Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation and Meteorology. His Convection research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mass flux and Mesoscale meteorology. His studies deal with areas such as Current and Climate model as well as Climatology.

His work in the fields of Troposphere and Atmospheric convection overlaps with other areas such as Outbreak, Convective inhibition and Observational study. His Precipitation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Climate change, Convergence and Earth system science. Christian Jakob combines subjects such as Radar observations and Northern Hemisphere with his study of Meteorology.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Climate research must sharpen its view (49 citations)
  • The Climatology, Meteorology, and Boundary Layer Structure of Marine Cold Air Outbreaks in Both Hemispheres (41 citations)
  • Improved MJO‐simulation in ECHAM6.3 by coupling a Stochastic Multicloud Model to the convection scheme (38 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Climate change
  • Climatology

His main research concerns Atmospheric sciences, Climatology, Convection, Precipitation and Tropics. His studies deal with areas such as Madden–Julian oscillation, Meteorology and Southern Hemisphere as well as Atmospheric sciences. His study in Meteorology focuses on Downscaling in particular.

Christian Jakob is interested in Middle latitudes, which is a branch of Climatology. The concepts of his Precipitation study are interwoven with issues in Convergence and Troposphere. His research investigates the link between Humidity and topics such as Pelagic zone that cross with problems in Climate model.
