His Atmospheric sciences study combines topics in areas such as Turbulence, Meteorology, Boundary layer and Marine stratocumulus.
His most cited work include:
- Dynamics and chemistry of marine stratocumulus - DYCOMS II (297 citations)
- Rain in Shallow Cumulus Over the Ocean: The RICO Campaign (294 citations)
- Potential impact of iodine on tropospheric levels of ozone and other critical oxidants (237 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Environmental science, Troposphere, Atmospheric sciences, Aerosol and Meteorology.
Troposphere is a subfield of Climatology that Donald C. Thornton tackles.
His Climatology research includes elements of Pacific ocean, Intertropical Convergence Zone and Marine stratocumulus.
His work in Atmospheric sciences covers topics such as Outflow which are related to areas like Trace gas.
His studies deal with areas such as Lidar and Dimethyl sulfide as well as Aerosol.
Many of his research projects under Meteorology are closely connected to Range and Sampling with Range and Sampling, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
