Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Mechanics
  • Climatology

Gregory C. Johnson mainly investigates Climatology, Oceanography, Environmental science, Climate change and Ocean current. His Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Salinity, Equator and Sea level. His work in Thermocline, Circumpolar deep water, Antarctic Bottom Water, Thermohaline circulation and Water mass are all subfields of Oceanography research.

His Ocean current study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Radar, Anemometer and Isopycnal. While the research belongs to areas of Argo, Gregory C. Johnson spends his time largely on the problem of Meteorology, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Greenhouse gas and Effects of global warming on oceans. Gregory C. Johnson combines subjects such as Tropical Atlantic, Global change and Oxygen minimum zone with his study of Global warming.

His most cited work include:

  • Expanding Oxygen-Minimum Zones in the Tropical Oceans (905 citations)
  • Circulation, mixing, and production of Antarctic Bottom Water (692 citations)
  • Warming of Global Abyssal and Deep Southern Ocean Waters between the 1990s and 2000s: Contributions to Global Heat and Sea Level Rise Budgets* (391 citations)

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

His main research concerns Oceanography, Climatology, Environmental science, Argo and Hydrography. His research brings together the fields of Structural basin and Oceanography. The concepts of his Climatology study are interwoven with issues in Equator and Sea level.

His Argo research incorporates themes from Sea surface temperature and Salinity, Temperature salinity diagrams. The various areas that Gregory C. Johnson examines in his Ocean current study include Scatterometer and Ocean gyre. His Water mass research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Geostrophic wind and Oceanic basin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (55.56%)
  • Climatology (52.91%)
  • Environmental science (34.39%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Environmental science (34.39%)
  • Climatology (52.91%)
  • Argo (21.69%)

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

Gregory C. Johnson spends much of his time researching Environmental science, Climatology, Argo, Oceanography and Ocean heat content. Gregory C. Johnson focuses mostly in the field of Climatology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Sea level rise and, in certain cases, Satellite altimetry. His studies deal with areas such as Equatorial Rossby wave, Sea surface temperature, Rossby wave and Latitude as well as Argo.

Oceanography connects with themes related to Ocean gyre in his study. His Ocean heat content research incorporates elements of Bathythermograph, Hydrography, Pacific ocean and Scale. His research integrates issues of Atmosphere, Meteorology and Sea level in his study of Climate change.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Global sea-level budget 1993 - present (185 citations)
  • Changes in ocean heat, carbon content, and ventilation : a review of the first decade of GO-SHIP Global Repeat Hydrography (89 citations)
  • Industrial-era global ocean heat uptake doubles in recent decades (88 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Mechanics
  • Kinematics

Gregory C. Johnson mostly deals with Environmental science, Climatology, Ocean heat content, Climate change and Argo. His Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Range, Sea level rise and Satellite altimetry. His Ocean heat content research entails a greater understanding of Oceanography.

His Climate change research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Bathythermograph, Atmospheric sciences and Sea level. His Argo research includes themes of Sea surface temperature and Library science. His Global warming study incorporates themes from Thermocline and Thermohaline circulation, Deep ocean water.
