Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Oceanography

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Climate change, Global warming, Forcing and Climate model. Gregory M. Flato integrates several fields in his works, including Climatology and Flux. Gregory M. Flato works mostly in the field of Climate change, limiting it down to topics relating to Thermohaline circulation and, in certain cases, Radiative forcing and Sulfate aerosol, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Global warming research incorporates elements of Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere. In his study, Copenhagen Accord, Representative Concentration Pathways and Carbon sequestration is inextricably linked to Greenhouse gas, which falls within the broad field of Forcing. Gregory M. Flato studied Climate model and Downscaling that intersect with Paleoclimatology, Climatic variables and Earth system science.

His most cited work include:

  • Evaluation of climate models (874 citations)
  • Investigating the Causes of the Response of the Thermohaline Circulation to Past and Future Climate Changes (720 citations)
  • The Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis global coupled model and its climate (553 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Climatology, Sea ice, Climate change, Climate model and Atmospheric sciences. Gregory M. Flato has researched Climatology in several fields, including Global warming, Meteorology and Greenhouse gas. His Sea ice study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Snow and Current.

His Climate change study incorporates themes from Perspective and Thermohaline circulation. The concepts of his Climate model study are interwoven with issues in Parametrization, Downscaling and Earth system science. His work on Troposphere and Tropospheric ozone as part of general Atmospheric sciences research is frequently linked to Natural and Multidisciplinary approach, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (71.70%)
  • Sea ice (33.96%)
  • Climate change (32.08%)

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

  • Earth system science (9.43%)
  • Climate extremes (1.89%)
  • Risk analysis (1.89%)

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

His primary areas of study are Earth system science, Climate extremes, Risk analysis, Information theory and Weather forecasting. His work deals with themes such as Global warming, Coupled model intercomparison project and Climate sensitivity, which intersect with Earth system science. Other disciplines of study, such as Climate model, Climate change, Perspective, Weighting and Process, are mixed together with his Risk analysis studies.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Taking climate model evaluation to the next level (123 citations)
  • Risks from Climate Extremes Change Differently from 1.5°C to 2.0°C Depending on Rarity (52 citations)
  • Context for interpreting equilibrium climate sensitivity and transient climate response from the CMIP6 Earth system models. (50 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Oceanography

Earth system science, Climate extremes, Climate sensitivity, Range and Global warming are his primary areas of study. His Earth system science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Climate model and Weather forecasting. His study in Climate sensitivity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate response, Climatology and Coupled model intercomparison project.
