Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Statistics
  • Thunderstorm

His main research concerns Meteorology, Remote sensing, Radar, Environmental science and Tornado. His work on Meteorology deals in particular with Microphysics, Storm, Lightning and Graupel. His research in Microphysics intersects with topics in Cold pool, Atmospheric sciences and Convective storm detection.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cloud microphysics and Doppler radar. His work in Radar addresses subjects such as Polarimetry, which are connected to disciplines such as Cloud physics and Weather radar. His research integrates issues of Hook echo and Mesocyclone in his study of Tornado.

His most cited work include:

  • Bulk Hydrometeor Classification and Quantification Using Polarimetric Radar Data: Synthesis of Relations (390 citations)
  • Cloud Microphysics Retrieval Using S-Band Dual-Polarization Radar Measurements (354 citations)
  • Direct surface thermodynamic observations within the rear-flank downdrafts of nontornadic and tornadic supercells (246 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Meteorology, Environmental science, Storm, Supercell and Radar. Tornado, Microphysics, Lightning, Thunderstorm and Tornadogenesis are among the areas of Meteorology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His studies in Storm integrate themes in fields like Computer simulation and Data assimilation.

His study looks at the relationship between Supercell and topics such as Mesocyclone, which overlap with Vorticity. His work carried out in the field of Radar brings together such families of science as Polarimetry, Remote sensing and Geodesy. His study in Remote sensing is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Weather radar, Doppler radar and Mesonet.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Meteorology (67.05%)
  • Environmental science (28.41%)
  • Storm (26.14%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2020)?

  • Meteorology (67.05%)
  • Environmental science (28.41%)
  • Microphysics (17.05%)

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

Meteorology, Environmental science, Microphysics, Atmospheric sciences and Tornado are his primary areas of study. His study in Supercell and Convection falls within the category of Meteorology. The subject of his Supercell research is within the realm of Storm.

His Microphysics study incorporates themes from Winter storm, Bin, Moment and Coincident. His Atmospheric sciences study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Polarimetry and Correlation coefficient. The Tornadogenesis research Jerry M. Straka does as part of his general Tornado study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Rest and Nocturnal, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 2009 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Polarimetric Signatures above the Melting Layer in Winter Storms: An Observational and Modeling Study (90 citations)
  • A Summary of Convective-Core Vertical Velocity Properties Using ARM UHF Wind Profilers in Oklahoma (53 citations)
  • The Impact of Spatial Variations of Low-Level Stability on the Life Cycle of a Simulated Supercell Storm (52 citations)
