Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

Garry K. C. Clarke mostly deals with Ice sheet, Glacier, Ice stream, Geomorphology and Climatology. The subject of his Ice sheet research is within the realm of Oceanography. Garry K. C. Clarke has included themes like Hydrology, Accumulation zone, Forcing, Pressure gradient and Glacier ice accumulation in his Glacier study.

His studies deal with areas such as Ice shelf and Antarctic sea ice as well as Ice stream. Garry K. C. Clarke has researched Geomorphology in several fields, including Glacier morphology and Plough. The various areas that Garry K. C. Clarke examines in his Climatology study include Glacier mass balance and Geodesy.

His most cited work include:

  • Freshwater Forcing of Abrupt Climate Change During the Last Glaciation (476 citations)
  • Ice-dammed lakes and rerouting of the drainage of northern Eurasia during the Last Glaciation. (273 citations)
  • Contribution of Alaskan glaciers to sea-level rise derived from satellite imagery (270 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Glacier, Geomorphology, Ice sheet, Climatology and Ice stream. His Glacier research incorporates elements of Hydrology, Glacier morphology and Surge. His research in Geomorphology intersects with topics in Accumulation zone, Glacier terminus and Glacier ice accumulation.

His Ice sheet study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cryosphere, Shelf ice, Ice divide and Ice-sheet model. He interconnects Climate change and Meteorology in the investigation of issues within Climatology. The concepts of his Ice stream study are interwoven with issues in Arctic ice pack, Antarctic sea ice, Ice shelf and Ice core.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Glacier (48.57%)
  • Geomorphology (27.43%)
  • Ice sheet (22.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Glacier (48.57%)
  • Climatology (16.57%)
  • Physical geography (15.43%)

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

His main research concerns Glacier, Climatology, Physical geography, Hydrology and Glacier mass balance. His research integrates issues of Snow and Ice sheet in his study of Glacier. His Ice sheet study incorporates themes from Arctic ice pack, Antarctic sea ice, Ice-sheet model and Abrupt climate change.

The various areas that Garry K. C. Clarke examines in his Climatology study include Elevation and Meteorology. His work in Hydrology addresses issues such as Glacier recession, which are connected to fields such as Water resources and Flow. Within one scientific family, Garry K. C. Clarke focuses on topics pertaining to Glacier morphology under Glacier mass balance, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Rock glacier.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Contribution of Alaskan glaciers to sea-level rise derived from satellite imagery (270 citations)
  • History of the Greenland Ice Sheet: paleoclimatic insights (146 citations)
  • Projected deglaciation of western Canada in the twenty-first century (115 citations)

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

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Glacier, Glacier mass balance, Ice stream and Glacier morphology. His study in the field of Sea ice also crosses realms of Approximation error. His Glacier research is within the category of Geomorphology.

His research integrates issues of Ice dynamics and Deglaciation in his study of Glacier mass balance. His Ice stream study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Antarctic sea ice and Ice sheet. His study in Glacier morphology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Drainage basin, Streamflow, Tributary, Hydrology and Snow.
