Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Meteorology
  • Climatology

His primary scientific interests are in Climatology, Environmental science, Meteorology, Atmospheric circulation and Teleconnection. His work in Climatology addresses issues such as Predictability, which are connected to fields such as Forecast skill and Barotropic fluid. His Environmental science research incorporates Geopotential height, Precipitation and Empirical orthogonal functions.

In general Meteorology, his work in Ensemble forecasting is often linked to Phase space, Cluster and Amplitude linking many areas of study. He focuses mostly in the field of Ensemble forecasting, narrowing it down to topics relating to North American Mesoscale Model and, in certain cases, Scatter plot, Contingency table, Meridional flow and Norm. His Atmospheric circulation research integrates issues from Geopotential and Northern Hemisphere.

His most cited work include:

  • The ECMWF Ensemble Prediction System: Methodology and validation (1235 citations)
  • Signature of recent climate change in frequencies of natural atmospheric circulation regimes (512 citations)
  • On the operational predictability of blocking (496 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Climatology, Environmental science, Meteorology, Sea surface temperature and Atmospheric circulation. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Predictability and Atmospheric model. In the subject of general Meteorology, his work in Ensemble forecasting and Numerical weather prediction is often linked to Amplitude and Nonlinear system, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His Ensemble forecasting study deals with North American Mesoscale Model intersecting with Mesoscale meteorology. His work on Pacific decadal oscillation and Indian Ocean Dipole as part of general Sea surface temperature study is frequently connected to Ekman transport, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. His study on Atmospheric circulation also encompasses disciplines like

  • Anomaly, which have a strong connection to Empirical orthogonal functions,
  • Hadley cell which intersects with area such as Zonal flow,
  • Walker circulation, which have a strong connection to Multivariate ENSO index and Thermohaline circulation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (73.04%)
  • Environmental science (61.74%)
  • Meteorology (32.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Climatology (73.04%)
  • Environmental science (61.74%)
  • Teleconnection (16.52%)

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

Franco Molteni focuses on Climatology, Environmental science, Teleconnection, Climate model and Extratropical cyclone. His Climatology research incorporates themes from Atmosphere, Predictability and Late winter. A majority of his Environmental science research is a blend of other scientific areas, such as Pacific ocean, Model resolution, Wind stress, Subtropics and Tropical climate.

His research integrates issues of Atmospheric dynamics and Northern Hemisphere in his study of Climate model. His Extratropical cyclone research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Surface warming and Tropopause. His North Atlantic oscillation study incorporates themes from Zonal and meridional, Anomaly, Baroclinity and Barotropic fluid.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • SEAS5: the new ECMWF seasonal forecast system (111 citations)
  • Climate model configurations of the ECMWF Integrated Forecasting System (ECMWF-IFS cycle 43r1) for HighResMIP (40 citations)
  • Sampling variability and the changing ENSO–monsoon relationship (30 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Meteorology
  • Climatology

Franco Molteni mainly investigates Environmental science, Climatology, Climate model, Teleconnection and Weather forecasting. His Environmental science studies intersect with other subjects such as Atmosphere, Series, Climate change, Time series and Correlation. Franco Molteni studies Climatology, namely Extratropical cyclone.

His work carried out in the field of Climate model brings together such families of science as Model resolution, Cryosphere, Ocean heat content and Stratosphere. The various areas that Franco Molteni examines in his Teleconnection study include Madden–Julian oscillation and Quantum electrodynamics. His study in Weather forecasting is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Mixture model, Sampling, Monsoon and Null hypothesis.
