Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Climate change
  • Climatology

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Environmental science, Precipitation, Downscaling and Climate model. His work on Monsoon as part of general Climatology research is frequently linked to Plateau, bridging the gap between disciplines. Many of his Environmental science research pursuits overlap with Urban heat island, Atmospheric sciences, Meteorology, Altitude and Daytime.

The various areas that Fujio Kimura examines in his Urban heat island study include Sensible heat and Atmospheric model. Downscaling is closely attributed to Global warming in his study. His study with Climate model involves better knowledge in Climate change.

His most cited work include:

  • A simple single-layer urban canopy model for atmospheric models: Comparison with multi-layer and slab models (782 citations)
  • Regional climate modeling: Progress, challenges, and prospects (369 citations)
  • Coupling a Single-Layer Urban Canopy Model with a Simple Atmospheric Model: Impact on Urban Heat Island Simulation for an Idealized Case (310 citations)

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

His main research concerns Climatology, Environmental science, Atmospheric sciences, Meteorology and Precipitation. His Climatology research includes elements of Global warming, Diurnal temperature variation, Climate model and Downscaling. In general Atmospheric sciences, his work in Sensible heat is often linked to East Asia linking many areas of study.

In the field of Meteorology, his study on Atmospheric model overlaps with subjects such as Rural area and Cloud cover. His study in Atmospheric model is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Slab and Atmospheric instability. His Precipitation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Convection and Mesoscale meteorology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (86.46%)
  • Environmental science (87.50%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (44.79%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2016)?

  • Environmental science (87.50%)
  • Climatology (86.46%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (44.79%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Environmental science, Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation and Downscaling. Other disciplines of study, such as Meteorology, Hydrology, Drainage basin, Water vapor and Precipitable water, are mixed together with his Environmental science studies. His Water vapor study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Daytime and Diurnal temperature variation.

His Climatology research includes themes of Global warming, General Circulation Model and Climate model. His work in Atmospheric sciences addresses issues such as Snow, which are connected to fields such as Altitude and Effects of global warming. The subject of his Downscaling research is within the realm of Climate change.

Between 2007 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Intermodel variability of future changes in the Baiu rainband estimated by the pseudo global warming downscaling method (108 citations)
  • Intermodel variability of future changes in the Baiu rainband estimated by the pseudo global warming downscaling method (108 citations)
  • Estimation of the Impact of Global Warming on Snow Depth in Japan by the Pseudo-Global-Warming Method (97 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Climate change
  • Climatology

His primary areas of investigation include Climatology, Precipitation, Atmospheric sciences, Global warming and Environmental science. Fujio Kimura combines subjects such as General Circulation Model, Climate model and Convection with his study of Climatology. His Climate model research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Meteorology, Global change and Rainband.

His studies link Downscaling with Global warming. His Diurnal cycle research integrates issues from Sea surface temperature and Mesoscale meteorology. His studies deal with areas such as Snow, Effects of global warming and Altitude as well as Hindcast.
