Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Troposphere
  • Optics

Holger Vömel spends much of his time researching Stratosphere, Troposphere, Atmospheric sciences, Water vapor and Hygrometer. Stratosphere is the subject of his research, which falls under Climatology. His Climatology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Trend surface analysis and Altitude.

His research integrates issues of Lidar and Mixing ratio in his study of Troposphere. In the subject of general Atmospheric sciences, his work in Tropopause is often linked to Mass flux, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Holger Vömel has included themes like Tourbillon and Vortex in his Water vapor study.

His most cited work include:

  • Decreases in stratospheric water vapor after 2001: Links to changes in the tropical tropopause and the Brewer‐Dobson circulation (248 citations)
  • Absolute accuracy of water vapor measurements from six operational radiosonde types launched during AWEX-G and implications for AIRS validation (222 citations)
  • Accuracy assessment and correction of Vaisala RS92 radiosonde water vapor measurements (202 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Atmospheric sciences, Stratosphere, Water vapor, Troposphere and Climatology. His Atmospheric sciences study combines topics in areas such as Ozone and Relative humidity. His studies deal with areas such as Atmosphere, Middle latitudes and Aerosol as well as Stratosphere.

He works mostly in the field of Water vapor, limiting it down to topics relating to Hygrometer and, in certain cases, Radiometer and Instrumentation, as a part of the same area of interest. His Troposphere study contributes to a more complete understanding of Meteorology. Holger Vömel has researched Climatology in several fields, including Vortex and Subsidence.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (71.64%)
  • Stratosphere (62.19%)
  • Water vapor (57.21%)

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

  • Atmospheric sciences (71.64%)
  • Stratosphere (62.19%)
  • Troposphere (54.73%)

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

Atmospheric sciences, Stratosphere, Troposphere, Meteorology and Water vapor are his primary areas of study. His work in the fields of Atmospheric sciences, such as Tropopause and Cirrus, overlaps with other areas such as Concentration cell and Particle. The concepts of his Stratosphere study are interwoven with issues in Ozone Monitoring Instrument, Aerosol, Lidar and Radiosonde.

Troposphere is a subfield of Climatology that Holger Vömel investigates. His study in the field of Dropsonde and Hygrometer also crosses realms of Intrusion. His Water vapor research focuses on Remote sensing and how it relates to Mixing ratio and Photometer.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Stratospheric Water and Ozone Satellite Homogenized (SWOOSH) database: a long-term database for climate studies (76 citations)
  • STATE OF THE CLIMATE IN 2017 (67 citations)
  • Reference Upper-Air Observations for Climate: From Concept to Reality (57 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Optics
  • Troposphere

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Stratosphere, Troposphere, Atmospheric sciences, Ozone and Meteorology. His Stratosphere study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Water vapor. His Water vapor research includes elements of Remote sensing and Mixing ratio.

His research on Troposphere concerns the broader Climatology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Anticyclone and Tropopause. The Tropopause study combines topics in areas such as Aerosol, Humidity, Southern Hemisphere, Lidar and Outflow.
