Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Statistics
  • Precipitation

George J. Huffman mostly deals with Meteorology, Precipitation, Climatology, Rain gauge and PERSIANN. His Meteorology study combines topics in areas such as Range and Latitude. His work on Quantitative precipitation forecast as part of general Precipitation study is frequently connected to Temporal resolution, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

He studied Climatology and Global precipitation that intersect with Microwave radiometry and Spatial distribution pattern. Precipitation index, Smoothness and Microwave is closely connected to Data set in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Rain gauge. In Sampling, George J. Huffman works on issues like Probability distribution, which are connected to Calibration.

His most cited work include:

  • The TRMM Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA): Quasi-Global, Multiyear, Combined-Sensor Precipitation Estimates at Fine Scales (4704 citations)
  • The Version 2 Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) Monthly Precipitation Analysis (1979-Present) (3838 citations)
  • Global Precipitation at One-Degree Daily Resolution from Multisatellite Observations (1418 citations)

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

George J. Huffman focuses on Precipitation, Climatology, Meteorology, Remote sensing and Atmospheric sciences. His research in Precipitation is mostly focused on Quantitative precipitation estimation. His studies deal with areas such as Global precipitation, Hydrology and Latitude as well as Climatology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Global change and Natural hazard in addition to Hydrology. His Meteorology research incorporates elements of Radar, Geosynchronous orbit and Scale. His study in Remote sensing is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Microwave and Geostationary orbit.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Precipitation (61.01%)
  • Climatology (47.29%)
  • Meteorology (46.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Precipitation (61.01%)
  • Climatology (47.29%)
  • Meteorology (46.21%)

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

George J. Huffman mainly investigates Precipitation, Climatology, Meteorology, Snow and Global precipitation. His Precipitation research focuses on Satellite precipitation in particular. The concepts of his Climatology study are interwoven with issues in Moisture, Hydrology, Intertropical Convergence Zone and Water cycle.

His work in the fields of Meteorology, such as Global Precipitation Measurement and Hydrometeorology, intersects with other areas such as Product and Centennial. His work carried out in the field of Snow brings together such families of science as Remote sensing, Satellite imagery and Latitude. His research in Global precipitation intersects with topics in Satellite data and Data set.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) Monthly Analysis (New Version 2.3) and a Review of 2017 Global Precipitation (163 citations)
  • Daily evaluation of 26 precipitation datasets using Stage-IV gauge-radar data for the CONUS (110 citations)
  • To What Extent is the Day 1 GPM IMERG Satellite Precipitation Estimate Improved as Compared to TRMM TMPA‐RT? (51 citations)
