Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Hydrology

His primary scientific interests are in Glacier, Climate change, Physical geography, Ice stream and Cryosphere. His Glacier study focuses on Glacier mass balance in particular. His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Snow and Surface runoff.

His research in Surface runoff intersects with topics in Climatology and Streamflow. The concepts of his Ice stream study are interwoven with issues in Geomorphology and Ice sheet. His Cryosphere study combines topics in areas such as Permafrost, Snow hydrology and Water resources.

His most cited work include:

  • Modelling runoff from highly glacierized alpine drainage basins in a changing climate (268 citations)
  • Distributed ice thickness and volume of all glaciers around the globe (232 citations)
  • Substantial glacier mass loss in the Tien Shan over the past 50 years (202 citations)

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

Daniel Farinotti spends much of his time researching Glacier, Physical geography, Climate change, Glacier mass balance and Ice stream. His Glacier research includes themes of Climatology, Precipitation, Hydrology, Surface runoff and Snow. His study in Physical geography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both High mountain, Global warming, Water resources, Anomaly and Hydropower.

His research investigates the connection between Climate change and topics such as Cryosphere that intersect with issues in Permafrost. His Ice stream study incorporates themes from Interpolation, Ice thickness and Geomorphology, Ice sheet. His Ice thickness research incorporates elements of Ice caps and Geodesy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Glacier (111.64%)
  • Physical geography (58.22%)
  • Climate change (36.99%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Glacier (111.64%)
  • Physical geography (58.22%)
  • Climate change (36.99%)

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

Daniel Farinotti mainly investigates Glacier, Physical geography, Climate change, Hydrology and Scale. Many of his research projects under Glacier are closely connected to Flux with Flux, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Glacier mass balance research incorporates themes from Structural basin, Drainage basin, Streamflow, Meltwater and Data assimilation.

Daniel Farinotti has included themes like Anomaly, Radiative forcing, Precipitation and Water resources in his Physical geography study. The various areas that he examines in his Water resources study include Global warming, Thinning and Ice sheet. His studies in Hydrology integrate themes in fields like Cryosphere, Discharge and Snow.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Manifestations and mechanisms of the Karakoram glacier Anomaly (34 citations)
  • Manifestations and mechanisms of the Karakoram glacier Anomaly (34 citations)
  • On the Imbalance and Response Time of Glaciers in the European Alps (13 citations)

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

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Hydrology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Glacier, Physical geography, Climate change, Ice stream and Ice thickness. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Drainage basin, Structural basin and Precipitation. Daniel Farinotti has researched Physical geography in several fields, including Streamflow and Surface runoff.

His work on Radiative forcing as part of general Climate change research is often related to Elevation, thus linking different fields of science. The Ice stream study combines topics in areas such as Surge and Future climate. His Ice thickness study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Bayesian probability, Markov chain Monte Carlo and Geodesy.
