Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Climate change
  • Ecology

Christoph Kottmeier focuses on Climatology, Meteorology, Sea ice, Drift ice and Sea ice thickness. His studies deal with areas such as Air mass and Shore as well as Climatology. His study on Precipitation, Convection and Satellite imagery is often connected to Context as part of broader study in Meteorology.

His Convection research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Turbulence, Vortex, Atmospheric sciences and Boundary layer. Sea ice is a subfield of Oceanography that he studies. His work carried out in the field of Drift ice brings together such families of science as Buoy and Scanning multichannel microwave radiometer.

His most cited work include:

  • HYMEX , a 10-year Multidisciplinary Program on the mediterranean water cycle. (238 citations)
  • The Convective and Orographically Induced Precipitation Study. A Research and Development Project of the World Weather Research Program for Improving Quantitative Precipitation Forecasting in Low-Mountain Regions (206 citations)
  • Sea ice motion from satellite passive microwave imagery assessed with ERS SAR and buoy motions (188 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Meteorology, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation and Sea ice. His Climatology research includes themes of Mediterranean climate, Climate model and Water cycle. His Convection, Wind speed, Mesoscale meteorology and Planetary boundary layer study in the realm of Meteorology connects with subjects such as Convection cell.

His Atmospheric sciences research focuses on Boundary layer and how it connects with Latent heat and Turbulence. As a part of the same scientific study, Christoph Kottmeier usually deals with the Precipitation, concentrating on Water content and frequently concerns with Soil science. His studies in Sea ice thickness integrate themes in fields like Antarctic sea ice and Drift ice.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (38.85%)
  • Meteorology (33.09%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (28.06%)

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

  • Climatology (38.85%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (28.06%)
  • Precipitation (20.86%)

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

Christoph Kottmeier mostly deals with Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation, Prediction system and Aerosol. His Climatology research includes elements of Meteorology, Climate model and Arctic. His Meteorology study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Extreme weather.

His work in Atmospheric sciences tackles topics such as Humidity which are related to areas like Atmosphere, Convection, Orography and Convective available potential energy. His research links Front with Precipitation. His work deals with themes such as Monsoon, Daytime, Inflow and Convective Boundary Layer, which intersect with Aerosol.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • MiKlip - a National Research Project on Decadal Climate Prediction (53 citations)
  • New perspectives on interdisciplinary earth science at the Dead Sea: The DESERVE project (23 citations)
  • Numerical simulations of aerosol radiative effects and their impact on clouds and atmospheric dynamics over southern West Africa (21 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Climate change
  • Ecology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Atmospheric sciences, Climatology, Aerosol, Precipitation and Humidity. His work in the fields of Atmospheric sciences, such as Radiosonde, intersects with other areas such as Twomey effect. The concepts of his Climatology study are interwoven with issues in Vapour pressure of water, Evaporation, Penman equation, Potential evaporation and Bowen ratio.

The Aerosol study combines topics in areas such as Lidar, Parametrization, Downwelling and Atmospheric instability. Christoph Kottmeier has included themes like Front, Monsoon, Inflow, Convective Boundary Layer and Daytime in his Precipitation study. His Humidity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Planetary boundary layer, Convection, Diurnal cycle and Noon.
