Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Erosion
  • Hydrology

Jean-Louis Rajot mostly deals with Mineral dust, Aerosol, Aeolian processes, Soil water and Atmospheric sciences. The Mineral dust study which covers Harmattan that intersects with Erosion, Troposphere and Wet season. His Aerosol research includes themes of Hematite and Mineralogy.

His Saltation study in the realm of Aeolian processes connects with subjects such as Land degradation and Nutrient. His study in Hydrology extends to Soil water with its themes. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Atmospheric sciences, Wind speed is strongly linked to Monsoon.

His most cited work include:

  • Influence of shrubs on soil characteristics and their function in Sahelian agro-ecosystems in semi-arid Niger (190 citations)
  • Characterization of iron oxides in mineral dust aerosols: Implications for light absorption (188 citations)
  • Overview of the Dust and Biomass‐burning Experiment and African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis Special Observing Period‐0 (171 citations)

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

Mineral dust, Atmospheric sciences, Aeolian processes, Hydrology and Aerosol are his primary areas of study. His work carried out in the field of Mineral dust brings together such families of science as Climatology, Single-scattering albedo, Mineralogy and Deposition. His work is dedicated to discovering how Atmospheric sciences, Wind speed are connected with Shear velocity and other disciplines.

His work on Saltation as part of his general Aeolian processes study is frequently connected to Field, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. He has included themes like Soil science, Soil water and Wet season in his Hydrology study. His Soil science study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Arid and Crust.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mineral dust (36.43%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (30.23%)
  • Aeolian processes (30.23%)

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

  • Aeolian processes (30.23%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (30.23%)
  • Precipitation (9.30%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Aeolian processes, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation, Wind speed and Climatology. His Aeolian processes research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil science and Erosion. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates elements of Mineral dust, Saltation, Atmospheric instability and Wet season.

His study with Mineral dust involves better knowledge in Meteorology. Jean-Louis Rajot combines subjects such as Hydrology, Seasonal cycle and Deposition with his study of Precipitation. His Wind speed research includes elements of Forage and Crop yield.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • How long does precipitation inhibit wind erosion in the Sahel (24 citations)
  • Impact of agropastoral management on wind erosion in sahelian croplands (13 citations)
  • Mineral dust over west and central Sahel: Seasonal patterns of dry and wet deposition fluxes from a pluriannual sampling (2006-2012) (13 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Erosion
  • Paleontology

His primary areas of investigation include Precipitation, Wind speed, Aeolian processes, Hydrology and Flux. His Wind speed study incorporates themes from Climatology, SYNOP and Mesoscale meteorology. He interconnects Erosion, Atmospheric sciences and Water content in the investigation of issues within Aeolian processes.

The various areas that Jean-Louis Rajot examines in his Hydrology study include Crop yield, Forage, Tillage and Soil fertility. His Flux research incorporates Scavenging, Seasonal cycle, Sampling, Mineral dust and Wet season. Jean-Louis Rajot carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Scavenging and Deposition.
