Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Statistics
  • Turbulence

His main research concerns Meteorology, Planetary boundary layer, Turbulence, Boundary layer and Atmospheric sciences. When carried out as part of a general Meteorology research project, his work on Atmospheric turbulence is frequently linked to work in Preliminary analysis, Scope and Computer science, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. The Planetary boundary layer study combines topics in areas such as Flow, Cold air and Katabatic wind.

To a larger extent, Jielun Sun studies Mechanics with the aim of understanding Turbulence. His research integrates issues of Climatology, Atmosphere, Instability, Wind profile power law and Richardson number in his study of Boundary layer. His Atmospheric sciences research integrates issues from Hydrology and Wind speed.

His most cited work include:

  • CASES-99: A Comprehensive Investigation of the Stable Nocturnal Boundary Layer (421 citations)
  • Turbulence Regimes and Turbulence Intermittency in the Stable Boundary Layer during CASES-99 (179 citations)
  • Atmospheric Disturbances that Generate Intermittent Turbulence in Nocturnal Boundary Layers (154 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Atmospheric sciences, Turbulence, Meteorology, Planetary boundary layer and Boundary layer. His Atmospheric sciences research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Climatology, Geostrophic wind, Wind speed, K-epsilon turbulence model and Advection. His Turbulence study combines topics in areas such as Stratification and Drag coefficient.

As a part of the same scientific family, Jielun Sun mostly works in the field of Meteorology, focusing on Terrain and, on occasion, Earth science, Tilt and Trace gas. His Planetary boundary layer research incorporates elements of Surface finish, Sensible heat, Thermal, Warm front and Heat transfer. His work is dedicated to discovering how Boundary layer, Mesoscale meteorology are connected with Sea breeze and Spatial variability and other disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (38.68%)
  • Turbulence (37.74%)
  • Meteorology (33.96%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2020)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (38.68%)
  • Turbulence (37.74%)
  • Boundary layer (26.42%)

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

Jielun Sun mainly focuses on Atmospheric sciences, Turbulence, Boundary layer, Wind speed and Mechanics. His work carried out in the field of Atmospheric sciences brings together such families of science as Planetary boundary layer, Climatology, Warm front and Drainage. Jielun Sun combines subjects such as Stratified flows, Turbulence kinetic energy, K-epsilon turbulence model and Sunset with his study of Planetary boundary layer.

Jielun Sun works mostly in the field of Turbulence, limiting it down to concerns involving Drag coefficient and, occasionally, Parametrization and Wind shear. His Boundary layer study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Meteorology, Geophysics and Buoyancy. His Wind speed research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Wind stress and Stratification.

Between 2013 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Review of wave-turbulence interactions in the stable atmospheric boundary layer (69 citations)
  • Wind and Temperature Oscillations Generated by Wave–Turbulence Interactions in the Stably Stratified Boundary Layer (62 citations)
  • The role of large-coherent-eddy transport in the atmospheric surface layer based on CASES-99 observations (47 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Statistics
  • Thermodynamics

His primary areas of investigation include Atmospheric sciences, Turbulence, Boundary layer, Wave turbulence and Planetary boundary layer. His Atmospheric sciences study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Haze. His Turbulence study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wind stress, Wind speed and Drainage.

His Boundary layer research includes themes of Hydrology, Meteorology, Flow and Buoyancy. His studies deal with areas such as Warm front, Intermittency and Stratified flow as well as Wave turbulence. Planetary boundary layer and K-epsilon turbulence model are frequently intertwined in his study.
