Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Ecosystem

Jonathan T. Overpeck spends much of his time researching Paleoclimatology, Holocene, Oceanography, Climate change and Climatology. The concepts of his Paleoclimatology study are interwoven with issues in Quaternary, Deglaciation, Radiative forcing, Physical geography and Last Glacial Maximum. His study in Holocene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Nutrient cycle, East Asian Monsoon, Aeolian processes and Biogeochemical cycle.

Jonathan T. Overpeck specializes in Oceanography, namely Global warming. His study focuses on the intersection of Climate change and fields such as Thermohaline circulation with connections in the field of Tropical Atlantic and Bølling-Allerød. Jonathan T. Overpeck has included themes like Natural, Natural hazard, Megadrought and Greenhouse warming in his Climatology study.

His most cited work include:

  • The Physical Science Basis (3670 citations)
  • Abrupt climate change (1052 citations)
  • Arctic Environmental Change of the Last Four Centuries (936 citations)

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

Jonathan T. Overpeck mostly deals with Climatology, Climate change, Paleoclimatology, Oceanography and Physical geography. His research in Climatology intersects with topics in Global change, Climate model and Precipitation, Megadrought. His work on Global warming is typically connected to Context as part of general Climate change study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His Paleoclimatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Younger Dryas, Glacial period, Deglaciation, Holocene and Radiocarbon dating. His work carried out in the field of Holocene brings together such families of science as Monsoon and Quaternary. As a part of the same scientific family, Jonathan T. Overpeck mostly works in the field of Physical geography, focusing on Last Glacial Maximum and, on occasion, Macrofossil.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (38.30%)
  • Climate change (35.74%)
  • Paleoclimatology (32.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Climate change (35.74%)
  • Climatology (38.30%)
  • Precipitation (10.64%)

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

Climate change, Climatology, Precipitation, Physical geography and Paleoclimatology are his primary areas of study. His study in Climate change focuses on Global warming in particular. His work deals with themes such as Climate model, Paleoceanography, Global change and Megadrought, which intersect with Climatology.

His Precipitation research incorporates elements of Period, Sea surface temperature, Holocene, Streamflow and Monsoon. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Arid, Sea level rise, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Southern Hemisphere. Paleoclimatology and Variance are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary work.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The time-transgressive termination of the African Humid Period (197 citations)
  • Climate Change 2014 (181 citations)
  • Terrestrial and Inland Water Systems (174 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Ecosystem

His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Climate change, Precipitation, Greenhouse gas and Climate model. His Climatology study frequently links to other fields, such as Paleoclimatology. His Paleoclimatology study combines topics in areas such as Variance, Foundation and Megadrought.

His Climate change study incorporates themes from Ecosystem and Physical geography. His Precipitation course of study focuses on Period and Holocene, Transgressive and Humidity. His Greenhouse gas research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Tropical pacific and Atmospheric sciences, Forcing.
