Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Atmosphere of Earth
  • Ozone
  • Atmospheric sciences

K. R. Chan mainly focuses on Stratosphere, Atmospheric sciences, Ozone, Atmospheric chemistry and Ozone depletion. In his work, Altitude is strongly intertwined with Aerosol, which is a subfield of Stratosphere. K. R. Chan specializes in Atmospheric sciences, namely Troposphere.

His study deals with a combination of Ozone and Reactive nitrogen. His research in Atmospheric chemistry intersects with topics in Chlorine monoxide, Plume and Supersonic speed. His Chlorine monoxide study combines topics in areas such as Inorganic chemistry, Vortex, Polar vortex and Effects of high altitude on humans.

His most cited work include:

  • Removal of Stratospheric O3 by Radicals: In Situ Measurements of OH, HO2, NO, NO2, ClO, and BrO (286 citations)
  • In situ measurements of total reactive nitrogen, total water, and aerosol in a polar stratospheric cloud in the Antarctic (251 citations)
  • Observations of denitrification and dehydration in the winter polar stratospheres (209 citations)

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

K. R. Chan spends much of his time researching Atmospheric sciences, Stratosphere, Environmental science, Ozone depletion and Ozone. His work deals with themes such as Climatology and Vortex, which intersect with Atmospheric sciences. His Stratosphere study incorporates themes from Mixing ratio, Aerosol, Atmosphere of Earth and Atmospheric chemistry.

His Ozone depletion research incorporates themes from Hydrochloric acid, Northern Hemisphere and Ozone layer. He combines subjects such as Photodissociation and Analytical chemistry with his study of Ozone. His studies in Chlorine monoxide integrate themes in fields like Inorganic chemistry and Nitrogen dioxide.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (71.43%)
  • Stratosphere (67.86%)
  • Environmental science (44.64%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1994-1998)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (71.43%)
  • Stratosphere (67.86%)
  • Environmental science (44.64%)

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

His main research concerns Atmospheric sciences, Stratosphere, Environmental science, Troposphere and Aerosol. His study ties his expertise on Atmospheric chemistry together with the subject of Atmospheric sciences. His Atmospheric chemistry research includes elements of Atmospheric circulation, Brewer-Dobson circulation, Southern Hemisphere and Effects of high altitude on humans.

His Stratosphere research integrates issues from Ozone and Mixing ratio. His Aerosol research focuses on subjects like Plume, which are linked to Ice crystals. His Northern Hemisphere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Atmospheric models, Ternary compound and Ozone depletion.

Between 1994 and 1998, his most popular works were:

  • Particle Formation in the Upper Tropical Troposphere: A Source of Nuclei for the Stratospheric Aerosol (168 citations)
  • Emission Measurements of the Concorde Supersonic Aircraft in the Lower Stratosphere (149 citations)
  • Quantifying Transport Between the Tropical and Mid-Latitude Lower Stratosphere (146 citations)

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

  • Atmosphere of Earth
  • Ozone
  • Atmospheric sciences

K. R. Chan focuses on Atmospheric sciences, Stratosphere, Troposphere, Aerosol and Ozone. His study in the field of Tropospheric wave also crosses realms of Volcano and Reactive nitrogen. His Tropospheric wave study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ice crystals, Leading edge and Cold wave.

Volcano is intertwined with Particle number, Cloud condensation nuclei and Altitude in his study. Reactive nitrogen is integrated with Greenhouse gas, Methane, Middle latitudes, Environmental science and Tropics in his study. His study in Supersonic speed is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Plume and Atmospheric chemistry.
