In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Derek J. Coffman focuses on Aerosol, Sea spray, Atmospheric sciences, Climatology and Cloud condensation nuclei.
Specifically, his work in Aerosol is concerned with the study of Sea salt aerosol.
His work deals with themes such as Atmospheric dynamics and Atmosphere, which intersect with Sea salt aerosol.
His research on Sea spray also deals with topics like
-
Environmental chemistry, which have a strong connection to Mineralogy and Sea surface microlayer,
-
Oceanography which connect with Total organic carbon.
His Climatology study also includes fields such as
-
Madden–Julian oscillation which intersects with area such as Indian ocean,
-
Atmospheric chemistry that intertwine with fields like Sea breeze and Air mass.
His Cloud condensation nuclei study incorporates themes from Fuel oil and Plume.
Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Contribution of sea surface carbon pool to organic matter enrichment in sea spray aerosol (128 citations)
- Small fraction of marine cloud condensation nuclei made up of sea spray aerosol (77 citations)
- A case study into the measurement of ship emissions from plume intercepts of the NOAA ship Miller Freeman (41 citations)
