Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Hydrology
  • Climate change

Howard Wheater mainly focuses on Hydrology, Flood myth, Water resources, Environmental resource management and Land management. His research links Arid with Hydrology. His studies in Flood myth integrate themes in fields like Rain gauge, Flooding and Generalized linear model.

His Water resources research incorporates themes from Climatology, Hindcast, Water resource management, Precipitation types and Hydrological modelling. His work carried out in the field of Environmental resource management brings together such families of science as Climate change, Socio-hydrology and Integrated catchment management. The Surface runoff study combines topics in areas such as Distributed element model and Spatial variability.

His most cited work include:

  • Towards reduced uncertainty in conceptual rainfall-runoff modelling: Dynamic identifiability analysis (422 citations)
  • A framework for development and application of hydrological models (378 citations)
  • Land use, water management and future flood risk. (300 citations)

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

Howard Wheater focuses on Hydrology, Climatology, Hydrology, Drainage basin and Surface runoff. His studies deal with areas such as Arid and Soil water as well as Hydrology. The concepts of his Climatology study are interwoven with issues in Climate change, Climate model, Precipitation, Multivariate statistics and Water resources.

His study focuses on the intersection of Water resources and fields such as Water resource management with connections in the field of Flood myth. His Hydrology research incorporates elements of Surface water and Hydrological modelling. His work is dedicated to discovering how Surface runoff, Land management are connected with Environmental planning and other disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (44.07%)
  • Climatology (20.36%)
  • Hydrology (18.24%)

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

  • Hydrology (44.07%)
  • Climatology (20.36%)
  • Hydrology (18.24%)

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

Hydrology, Climatology, Hydrology, Drainage basin and Climate change are his primary areas of study. His study in Hydrology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Snow and Nutrient. The study incorporates disciplines such as Global warming, Multivariate statistics and Teleconnection, Precipitation in addition to Climatology.

He has researched Hydrology in several fields, including Observational study, Earth science, Environmental resource management and Water resource management. The concepts of his Drainage basin study are interwoven with issues in Physical geography and Spatial variability. His research integrates issues of Resource, Econometrics, Range and Identification in his study of Streamflow.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • On inclusion of water resource management in Earth system models – Part 1: Problem definition and representation of water demand (102 citations)
  • Human–water interface in hydrological modelling : current status and future directions (82 citations)
  • Water security and the science agenda (80 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Hydrology
  • Climate change

His primary areas of study are Hydrology, Climatology, Water resources, Precipitation and Climate change. Hydrology and Snow are frequently intertwined in his study. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Climate change assessment, Climate model, General Circulation Model and Teleconnection.

He combines subjects such as Water cycle and Water resource management with his study of Water resources. His Precipitation research incorporates themes from Ecozone, Agriculture, Evapotranspiration and Scale. His Hydrological modelling research focuses on subjects like Sensitivity analysis, which are linked to Flood myth.
