Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Ecology

Gilles Ramstein mainly focuses on Paleoclimatology, Climatology, Glacial period, Last Glacial Maximum and Atmospheric circulation. His Climatology research incorporates themes from Snow, Climate model and Precipitation. Gilles Ramstein combines subjects such as Monsoon and Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project with his study of Precipitation.

His Glacial period research integrates issues from Earth science and Ice sheet. His work focuses on many connections between Last Glacial Maximum and other disciplines, such as Water cycle, that overlap with his field of interest in Lapse rate, Vegetation, Sea level and Pleistocene. Gilles Ramstein has included themes like East Asian Monsoon and Physical geography in his Atmospheric circulation study.

His most cited work include:

  • Results of PMIP2 coupled simulations of the Mid-Holocene and Last Glacial Maximum - Part 1: experiments and large-scale features (958 citations)
  • Effect of orogeny, plate motion and land-sea distribution on Eurasian climate change over the past 30 million years (458 citations)
  • Tectonic Uplift and Eastern Africa Aridification (324 citations)

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

Climatology, Ice sheet, Climate model, Paleoclimatology and Glacial period are his primary areas of study. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Vegetation, Climate change, Last Glacial Maximum and Precipitation. His research in Ice sheet intersects with topics in Arctic ice pack, Sea ice, Antarctic sea ice and Ice-sheet model.

His research integrates issues of Pliocene climate and Atmospheric temperature in his study of Climate model. His Paleoclimatology research incorporates themes from Atmospheric circulation, Quaternary, Physical geography and Water cycle. His Glacial period research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Precambrian and Earth science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (70.34%)
  • Ice sheet (27.12%)
  • Climate model (24.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Climatology (70.34%)
  • Ice sheet (27.12%)
  • Precipitation (16.95%)

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

Gilles Ramstein focuses on Climatology, Ice sheet, Precipitation, Climate model and East Asian Monsoon. His Climatology study typically links adjacent topics like Climate change. The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Earth history and Earth science.

The Ice sheet study combines topics in areas such as Glacial period, Paleontology, Megadrought and Ice-sheet model. His work on Downscaling is typically connected to Range, Interpolation, Kriging and Bilinear interpolation as part of general Precipitation study, connecting several disciplines of science. His studies deal with areas such as Subtropics and Holocene climatic optimum as well as Climate model.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Orbitally forced ice sheet fluctuations during the Marinoan Snowball Earth glaciation (37 citations)
  • Middle Miocene climate and vegetation models and their validation with proxy data (35 citations)
  • Consequences of rapid ice sheet melting on the Sahelian population vulnerability (30 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Ecology

His main research concerns Climatology, Ice sheet, Climate model, Ice-sheet model and Precipitation. Gilles Ramstein studies Ice shelf, a branch of Climatology. His work in Ice sheet tackles topics such as Glacial period which are related to areas like Boreal.

In his research on the topic of Climate model, East Asian Monsoon, Physical geography and Climate sensitivity is strongly related with Subtropics. His Ice-sheet model research includes themes of Iceberg, Climate change, Megadrought, Effects of global warming and Future sea level. His study in Precipitation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Moisture and Monsoon.
