  • Meteorology (57.71%)

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

Dong Jun Seo spends much of his time researching Streamflow, Data assimilation, Meteorology, Remote sensing and Precipitation. His Streamflow research focuses on subjects like Operational forecasting, which are linked to National weather service, Water resource management and Drainage basin. His Data assimilation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Snow, SNOTEL and Flood forecasting.

He has researched Meteorology in several fields, including Mean squared error, Routing, Communication channel and Hydrological modelling. In the subject of general Precipitation, his work in Rain gauge is often linked to Terrain, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His biological study deals with issues like Hydrometeorology, which deal with fields such as Conditional bias.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hyper-resolution 1D-2D urban flood modelling using LiDAR data and hybrid parallelization (20 citations)
  • Real-time assimilation of streamflow observations into a hydrological routing model: effects of model structures and updating methods (10 citations)
  • Multiscale Postprocessor for Ensemble Streamflow Prediction for Short to Long Ranges (7 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Meteorology
  • Hydrology

Dong Jun Seo mostly deals with Meteorology, Precipitation, Streamflow, Flood myth and Operational forecasting. His Meteorology study combines topics in areas such as Optimal estimation, Estimator and Cross-validation. His research in Streamflow intersects with topics in Routing and Distributed element model.

His Flood myth research includes themes of Lidar, Digital elevation model and Parallel computing. In his research on the topic of Operational forecasting, Stochastic modelling is strongly related with National weather service. His study looks at the relationship between Kalman filter and topics such as Mean squared error, which overlap with Rain gauge.
