Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Oceanography

Isabella Velicogna mostly deals with Ice sheet, Climatology, Arctic ice pack, Meteorology and Glacier mass balance. As part of her studies on Climatology, Isabella Velicogna often connects relevant areas like Sea level. Her studies deal with areas such as Climate change, Effects of global warming on oceans, Antarctic ice sheet and Greenhouse gas as well as Sea level.

Her Meteorology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Gravimetry, Atmospheric sciences, Greenland ice sheet and Geodesy. Isabella Velicogna combines subjects such as Snow and Post-glacial rebound with her study of Glacier mass balance. Her Snow research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glacier, Sea level rise and Climate model.

Her most cited work include:

  • Satellite-based estimates of groundwater depletion in India (1510 citations)
  • Satellite-based estimates of groundwater depletion in India (1510 citations)
  • Satellite-based estimates of groundwater depletion in India (1510 citations)

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

Climatology, Ice sheet, Atmospheric sciences, Glacier and Sea level are her primary areas of study. Isabella Velicogna works mostly in the field of Climatology, limiting it down to concerns involving Glacier mass balance and, occasionally, Snow. Her Ice sheet research includes elements of Arctic ice pack, Antarctic sea ice and Climate change.

Her Glacier research focuses on Bathymetry and how it connects with Fjord and Submarine. Isabella Velicogna interconnects Global warming, Sea surface temperature and Groenlandia in the investigation of issues within Sea level. Her Post-glacial rebound research focuses on subjects like Geodesy, which are linked to Meteorology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (64.22%)
  • Ice sheet (42.66%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (27.06%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Climatology (64.22%)
  • Glacier (29.36%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (27.06%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Glacier, Atmospheric sciences, Ice sheet and Climate model. Isabella Velicogna has included themes like Global warming, Flood myth and Sea level in her Climatology study. Isabella Velicogna has researched Glacier in several fields, including Satellite imagery, Remote sensing and Front.

Her work carried out in the field of Atmospheric sciences brings together such families of science as Atmosphere, Surface water and Water content. The various areas that she examines in her Ice sheet study include Ice shelf, Climate change and Bathymetry. Her studies in Climate model integrate themes in fields like Drainage basin and Meteorology.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Contributions of GRACE to understanding climate change. (147 citations)
  • Continuity of Ice Sheet Mass Loss in Greenland and Antarctica From the GRACE and GRACE Follow-On Missions (30 citations)
  • Continuity of Ice Sheet Mass Loss in Greenland and Antarctica From the GRACE and GRACE Follow-On Missions (30 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Oceanography

Her main research concerns Climatology, Climate model, Climate change, Glacier and Ice sheet. She merges many fields, such as Climatology and Planetary boundary layer, in her writings. Her Climate model research incorporates elements of Meteorology, Hydrology, Sea level and Ice caps.

Her research investigates the link between Climate change and topics such as Sea level change that cross with problems in Environmental planning, Lead, Comprehensive planning and Earth system science. Her Glacier study combines topics in areas such as Front and Remote sensing. Her study in Ice sheet is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Physical geography and Glacier mass balance.
