Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Oceanography

His main research concerns Climatology, Aeolian processes, Storm, Dust storm and Sediment. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Climate extremes, General Circulation Model, Climate change, Ensemble simulation and Land cover. He has included themes like Hydrology, Deposition and Snow in his Aeolian processes study.

His study looks at the relationship between Dust storm and fields such as Atmospheric sciences, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His research in Sediment intersects with topics in Subtropics, Oceanography, Provenance and Deposition. In his research on the topic of Synoptic scale meteorology, Physical geography and Arid is strongly related with Geographic information system.

His most cited work include:

  • The 23rd October, 2002 dust storm in eastern Australia: characteristics and meteorological conditions. (132 citations)
  • A continent under stress: interactions, feedbacks and risks associated with impact of modified land cover on Australia's climate (117 citations)
  • Long-range dust transport from eastern Australia: A proxy for Holocene aridity and ENSO-type climate variability (98 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Climatology, Oceanography, Aeolian processes, Atmospheric sciences and Hydrology. His studies in Climatology integrate themes in fields like Holocene, Climate change and Precipitation. His Oceanography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacial period, Sediment and Quaternary.

His Aeolian processes research focuses on Arid and how it connects with Vegetation. The various areas that Hamish A. McGowan examines in his Atmospheric sciences study include Snow, Wind speed, Meteorology and Snowpack. His studies in Hydrology integrate themes in fields like Structural basin and Field.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (30.09%)
  • Oceanography (21.68%)
  • Aeolian processes (23.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Climatology (30.09%)
  • Hydrology (17.70%)
  • Eddy covariance (10.62%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Hydrology, Eddy covariance, Atmospheric sciences and Snowpack. His Climatology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Subtropics, Thunderstorm and Extreme weather. His work carried out in the field of Hydrology brings together such families of science as Swamp and Soil water.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Reef, Coral reef, Oceanography and Wetland in addition to Eddy covariance. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates themes from Climate model and Precipitation. His research in Sediment focuses on subjects like Last Glacial Maximum, which are connected to Earth science, Arid and Southern Hemisphere.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Palaeo-dust records: A window to understanding past environments (30 citations)
  • A late Quaternary record of monsoon variability in the northwest Kimberley, Australia (29 citations)
  • Global warming in the context of 2000 years of Australian alpine temperature and snow cover. (14 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Global warming

Hamish A. McGowan spends much of his time researching Climatology, Quaternary, Climate change, Precipitation and Holocene. His Climatology research includes themes of Storm and Thunderstorm. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil classification, Monsoon and Hydrology, Erosion.

His Monsoon study also includes

  • Younger Dryas, which have a strong connection to Environmental change and Physical geography,
  • Environmental history that intertwine with fields like Oceanography. His Climate change study incorporates themes from Peat, Structural basin, Snowmelt and Precipitation types. His Holocene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Deposition, Soil water, Provenance, Sedimentology and Sedimentary depositional environment.
