Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Climatology
  • Meteorology

José A. Marengo focuses on Climatology, Climate change, Amazon rainforest, Precipitation and Sea surface temperature. José A. Marengo is interested in Atmospheric circulation, which is a branch of Climatology. His Climate change research incorporates themes from Natural resource economics and Atmospheric temperature.

His Amazon rainforest research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Tropical Atlantic, Deforestation, Physical geography and Wet season. The study incorporates disciplines such as Paleoclimatology, Annual cycle, Global wind patterns, Water cycle and Rainforest in addition to Precipitation. His Climate model study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Subtropics and Downscaling.

His most cited work include:

  • Climate change 2007 : impacts, adaptation and vulnerability : Working Group II contribution to the Fourth Assessment Report of the IPCC Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (2621 citations)
  • Changes in climate extremes and their impacts on the natural physical environment (1015 citations)
  • Present-day South American climate (881 citations)

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

His main research concerns Climatology, Climate change, Amazon rainforest, Precipitation and Climate model. José A. Marengo works on Climatology which deals in particular with Sea surface temperature. His work on Global warming as part of general Climate change study is frequently connected to Extreme value theory, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

His work on Amazon basin as part of general Amazon rainforest research is often related to Context, thus linking different fields of science. In Precipitation, José A. Marengo works on issues like Water cycle, which are connected to Deforestation. His Subtropics research integrates issues from Atmospheric circulation and Tropics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (64.32%)
  • Climate change (32.37%)
  • Amazon rainforest (28.63%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Climate change (32.37%)
  • Climatology (64.32%)
  • Precipitation (26.56%)

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

Climate change, Climatology, Precipitation, Amazon rainforest and Agroforestry are his primary areas of study. The various areas that José A. Marengo examines in his Climate change study include Natural resource economics and Environmental resource management. José A. Marengo regularly ties together related areas like Meteor in his Climatology studies.

His Precipitation study incorporates themes from Humidity, Period and Structural basin. His work deals with themes such as Biodiversity, Deforestation, Water level, Water cycle and Rainforest, which intersect with Amazon rainforest. The concepts of his Agroforestry study are interwoven with issues in Agriculture, Food security and Vegetation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • 21st Century drought-related fires counteract the decline of Amazon deforestation carbon emissions (211 citations)
  • Climatic characteristics of the 2010-2016 drought in the semiarid Northeast Brazil region. (123 citations)
  • Changes in Climate and Land Use Over the Amazon Region: Current and Future Variability and Trends (84 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Agriculture

His primary scientific interests are in Climatology, Agroforestry, Amazon rainforest, Sea surface temperature and Vegetation. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Subsidence and Precipitation. His research in Precipitation intersects with topics in El Niño Southern Oscillation and Flooding.

José A. Marengo interconnects Period, Climate change, Carbon dioxide and Land use in the investigation of issues within Agroforestry. His Amazon rainforest research incorporates elements of Land use, land-use change and forestry, Tipping point, Deforestation, Environmental resource management and Moisture recycling. His Sea surface temperature study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Dry season, Arctic, Physical geography and Humidity.
