Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

Christof Appenzeller mainly investigates Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, North Atlantic oscillation, Troposphere and Tropopause. He has included themes like Spatial variability and Mean radiant temperature in his Climatology study. As a part of the same scientific study, Christof Appenzeller usually deals with the Mean radiant temperature, concentrating on Dog days and frequently concerns with Climate model.

His North Atlantic oscillation study incorporates themes from Climate pattern, Proxy, Ice core and Climate oscillation. His research in Troposphere intersects with topics in Contour advection, Potential vorticity, Vorticity, Vortex and Mesoscale meteorology. His research integrates issues of Global warming, Montreal Protocol, Geophysics and Greenhouse gas in his study of Tropopause.

His most cited work include:

  • The role of increasing temperature variability in European summer heatwaves (2089 citations)
  • North Atlantic Oscillation Dynamics Recorded in Greenland Ice Cores (298 citations)
  • Seasonal variation of mass transport across the tropopause (284 citations)

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

Christof Appenzeller mostly deals with Climatology, Precipitation, Meteorology, Climate change and Atmospheric sciences. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Snow, Climate model, Downscaling and Mean radiant temperature. In his work, Standard normal table and Spatial distribution is strongly intertwined with Anomaly, which is a subfield of Precipitation.

His Meteorology study which covers Probabilistic logic that intersects with Mean squared error. His study in the fields of Trend surface analysis and Global warming under the domain of Climate change overlaps with other disciplines such as Reference Period, Circulation and Phenology. His work on Stratosphere, Tropopause and Troposphere is typically connected to Spring as part of general Atmospheric sciences study, connecting several disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (68.57%)
  • Precipitation (31.43%)
  • Meteorology (28.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2017)?

  • Climatology (68.57%)
  • Precipitation (31.43%)
  • Climate change (31.43%)

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

Christof Appenzeller spends much of his time researching Climatology, Precipitation, Climate change, Reference Period and Climate model. His study brings together the fields of Sunshine duration and Climatology. His work on Anomaly expands to the thematically related Precipitation.

His work on Political economy of climate change, Climate impact and Adaptation strategies as part of his general Climate change study is frequently connected to Best practice, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The various areas that Christof Appenzeller examines in his Climate model study include Standard deviation, Sample size determination, Mode and Mean radiant temperature. His research brings together the fields of Meteorology and Mean radiant temperature.

Between 2013 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Long series of Swiss seasonal precipitation: regionalization, trends and influence of large‐scale flow (20 citations)
  • Key climate indices in Switzerland; expected changes in a future climate (20 citations)
  • Fog and low stratus over the Swiss Plateau − a climatological study (19 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

His main research concerns Climatology, Precipitation, Downscaling, Snow and Reference Period. The concepts of his Climatology study are interwoven with issues in Percentile and Mode. Many of his studies on Percentile involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Anomaly.

His Mode research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Meteorology, Climate model and Mean radiant temperature. His Downscaling study is focused on Climate change in general. Heating degree day and Frost are fields of study that intersect with his Growing season research.
