Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Tropical cyclone
  • Meteorology
  • Statistics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Tropical cyclone, Climatology, Meteorology, Storm and Tropical cyclone rainfall forecasting. His Tropical cyclone research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Tropical Atlantic, Climate change and Maximum sustained wind. His Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Tropical cyclone scales and Atmospheric sciences.

In the subject of general Meteorology, his work in Typhoon is often linked to Heat lightning, thereby combining diverse domains of study. He interconnects Lightning, Atmospheric electricity and Convection, Rainband in the investigation of issues within Storm. The concepts of his Tropical cyclone rainfall forecasting study are interwoven with issues in Wind shear, Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, Tropical cyclogenesis and Spatial distribution.

His most cited work include:

  • Further improvements to the Statistical Hurricane Intensity Prediction Scheme (SHIPS) (423 citations)
  • Can We Detect Trends in Extreme Tropical Cyclones (376 citations)
  • Atlantic basin hurricanes : Indices of climatic changes (312 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Tropical cyclone, Climatology, Meteorology, Storm and Tropical cyclone forecast model. John A. Knaff works mostly in the field of Tropical cyclone, limiting it down to topics relating to Typhoon and, in certain cases, Operational forecasting, as a part of the same area of interest. His work in the fields of Southern Hemisphere overlaps with other areas such as Latitude.

His research in Meteorology intersects with topics in Tropical cyclone forecasting, Linear regression, Remote sensing and Geostationary orbit. When carried out as part of a general Storm research project, his work on Atlantic hurricane is frequently linked to work in Radius, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Tropical cyclone forecast model is a subfield of Weather forecasting that John A. Knaff tackles.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Tropical cyclone (68.75%)
  • Climatology (64.84%)
  • Meteorology (56.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Tropical cyclone (68.75%)
  • Climatology (64.84%)
  • Meteorology (56.25%)

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

John A. Knaff focuses on Tropical cyclone, Climatology, Meteorology, Typhoon and Storm. His research investigates the connection between Tropical cyclone and topics such as Atmosphere that intersect with problems in Atmospheric sciences and Maximum sustained wind. His Climatology research incorporates themes from Vortex and State.

As part of one scientific family, John A. Knaff deals mainly with the area of Meteorology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Tropical cyclone forecasting, and often Dvorak technique, Northern Hemisphere, Wind shear and Ocean heat content. His work deals with themes such as Weighted arithmetic mean, Operational forecasting and Rapid intensification, which intersect with Typhoon. John A. Knaff has included themes like Wind speed and Tropical cyclone forecast model in his Storm study.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • State of the Climate in 2016 (70 citations)
  • STATE OF THE CLIMATE IN 2017 (67 citations)
  • Physical understanding of the tropical cyclone wind-pressure relationship (42 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Tropical cyclone
  • Statistics

John A. Knaff mainly investigates Meteorology, Climatology, Tropical cyclone, Sea ice concentration and Storm. His work on Weather forecasting and Ocean modeling as part of general Meteorology research is frequently linked to Range and Constellation, bridging the gap between disciplines. In the subject of general Climatology, his work in Operational forecasting and Typhoon is often linked to Analysis tools and Economic shortage, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Tropical cyclone is closely attributed to Wind speed in his work. His studies deal with areas such as Wind gradient and Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting model, Tropical cyclone forecast model as well as Storm. John A. Knaff combines subjects such as Monsoon and Arctic with his study of Sea ice.
