Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Climate change

His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Precipitation, La Niña, Annual cycle and Global warming. His study in Climatology focuses on Tropical wave in particular. In the subject of general Precipitation, his work in Tropical rainfall is often linked to Cape, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His La Niña study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Evapotranspiration, Vegetation, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, Diurnal temperature variation and Diurnal cycle. Germán Poveda works mostly in the field of Annual cycle, limiting it down to topics relating to Streamflow and, in certain cases, Cold front, Mesoscale meteorology and Convergence zone, as a part of the same area of interest. The Global warming study combines topics in areas such as Tropical climate, Range, Sea surface temperature and Ecological succession.

His most cited work include:

  • Annual and inter-annual variability of the present climate in northern South America and southern Mesoamerica (247 citations)
  • Feedbacks between Hydrological Processes in Tropical South America and Large-Scale Ocean–Atmospheric Phenomena (184 citations)
  • Seasonally in ENSO‐related precipitation, river discharges, soil moisture, and vegetation index in Colombia (171 citations)

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

Germán Poveda mainly investigates Climatology, Precipitation, Hydrology, Climate change and Amazon rainforest. He interconnects Water balance and Streamflow in the investigation of issues within Climatology. His Precipitation research includes elements of Diurnal cycle, Atmospheric sciences, Soil water and Water content.

The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Discharge, Food security, Hydrology and Physical geography. His studies deal with areas such as Atmospheric water, Deforestation and Conjoint analysis as well as Amazon rainforest. His La Niña research includes themes of Empirical orthogonal functions and Vegetation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (40.32%)
  • Precipitation (27.42%)
  • Hydrology (16.94%)

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

  • Precipitation (27.42%)
  • Climatology (40.32%)
  • Amazon rainforest (13.71%)

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

Germán Poveda spends much of his time researching Precipitation, Climatology, Amazon rainforest, Climate change and Annual cycle. As part of the same scientific family, Germán Poveda usually focuses on Precipitation, concentrating on Earth and intersecting with Low level jet. Germán Poveda has researched Climatology in several fields, including Tropical pacific, Atmosphere and Hydrology.

The various areas that Germán Poveda examines in his Amazon rainforest study include Hydrology, Drainage basin and Deforestation. His Climate change research integrates issues from Extratropical cyclone, Physical geography and Water cycle. His work carried out in the field of Annual cycle brings together such families of science as Mixed layer, La Niña, Downwelling, Upwelling and Geostrophic wind.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Climate impacts of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation on South America (42 citations)
  • Nonlinear interactions between the Amazon River basin and the Tropical North Atlantic at interannual timescales (27 citations)
  • The ecology of peace: preparing Colombia for new political and planetary climates (22 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Statistics
  • Climate change

His primary areas of study are Precipitation, Amazon rainforest, Climatology, Library science and Diurnal cycle. His Precipitation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Food security, Seasonality and Anabatic wind. His Amazon rainforest research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Atmospheric water, Conjoint analysis, Teleconnection and Hydrology.

In the field of Climatology, his study on El Niño Southern Oscillation overlaps with subjects such as West coast. His Library science research incorporates elements of Christian ministry, Low level jet, Research center, Political science and Partial support. His Diurnal cycle study combines topics in areas such as Sensible heat, Drainage basin, Soil water, Glacier and Orographic lift.
