Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Hydrology
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Hydrology, Groundwater, Water content, Hydrology and Climatology. His studies in Hydrology integrate themes in fields like Snow and Water resource management. His studies deal with areas such as Drainage basin, Water security and Remote sensing as well as Groundwater.

His Water content study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Soil science, Soil water, Watershed, Remote sensing and Data assimilation. His research in Climatology intersects with topics in Sea level change, Climate change, Meteorology and Water cycle. His Water cycle research includes themes of Climate model, Precipitation, Environmental resource management, Water resources and Food security.

His most cited work include:

  • Satellite-based estimates of groundwater depletion in India (1510 citations)
  • Ground water and climate change (928 citations)
  • The global groundwater crisis (556 citations)

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

His main research concerns Hydrology, Groundwater, Climatology, Hydrology and Water content. His Hydrology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Precipitation. His studies in Groundwater integrate themes in fields like Water resource management, Climate change and Water resources.

His Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Meteorology and Climate model. His Water content research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Moisture, Soil science, Soil water and Remote sensing. His Evapotranspiration study which covers Surface runoff that intersects with Watershed.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (46.23%)
  • Groundwater (34.43%)
  • Climatology (23.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Groundwater (34.43%)
  • Hydrology (26.89%)
  • Water cycle (17.38%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Groundwater, Hydrology, Water cycle, Water resources and Hydrology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Climate change, Food security, Precipitation and Water resource management in addition to Groundwater. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Climatology, Sea level, Environmental resource management and Ice sheet.

The Water cycle study combines topics in areas such as Earth system science, Climate model and Atmospheric sciences. His Water resources study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agriculture, Physical geography, Surface water and Endorheic basin. Hydrology and Tectonic uplift are commonly linked in his work.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Emerging trends in global freshwater availability. (422 citations)
  • Emerging trends in global freshwater availability. (422 citations)
  • The Future of Evapotranspiration: Global requirements for ecosystem functioning, carbon and climate feedbacks, agricultural management, and water resources (243 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Hydrology
  • Meteorology

James S. Famiglietti mainly focuses on Groundwater, Water resources, Climate change, Water cycle and Climatology. The subject of his Groundwater research is within the realm of Hydrology. His research investigates the link between Water resources and topics such as Surface water that cross with problems in Endorheic basin, Future sea level, Hydrosphere, Water quality and Global warming.

He has researched Climate change in several fields, including Earth system science, Sea level change and Environmental resource management. His Water cycle study incorporates themes from Eddy covariance, Climate model, Evapotranspiration, Water content and Hydrology. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of State and Ice sheet.
