Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Meteorology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Oceanography, Continental shelf, Climatology, Upwelling and Submarine pipeline. He integrates Oceanography with Advection in his research. His Continental shelf study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wind stress, Baroclinity, Flow, Barotropic fluid and Current.

Kenneth H. Brink combines subjects such as Sea level and Ekman transport with his study of Climatology. His Submarine pipeline study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Geophysics and Transition zone. As a part of the same scientific family, Kenneth H. Brink mostly works in the field of Mean flow, focusing on Dome and, on occasion, Amplitude.

His most cited work include:

  • The Coastal Transition Zone program (209 citations)
  • Coastal-Trapped Waves and Wind-Driven Currents Over the Continental Shelf (178 citations)
  • The Nantucket Shoals Flux Experiment (NSFE79). Part I: A Basic Description of the Current and Temperature Variability (165 citations)

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

Oceanography, Continental shelf, Climatology, Upwelling and Submarine pipeline are his primary areas of study. His work on Current and Stratification as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Continental margin, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Continental shelf research incorporates elements of Mechanics, Baroclinity, Flow, Barotropic fluid and Ocean current.

His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mooring, Downwelling and Ekman transport. Kenneth H. Brink interconnects Plankton, Monsoon, Productivity and Zooplankton in the investigation of issues within Upwelling. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Drifter, Transition zone, Mesoscale meteorology, Jet and Anticyclone.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (58.78%)
  • Continental shelf (27.03%)
  • Climatology (26.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Oceanography (58.78%)
  • Mechanics (13.51%)
  • Climatology (26.35%)

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

Kenneth H. Brink mainly investigates Oceanography, Mechanics, Climatology, Continental shelf and Upwelling. His research integrates issues of Phytoplankton and Eddy in his study of Oceanography. Kenneth H. Brink has included themes like Meteorology and Front in his Mechanics study.

His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Coastal oceanography and Ekman transport. Kenneth H. Brink usually deals with Continental shelf and limits it to topics linked to Downwelling and Amplitude and Stratification. His Upwelling research incorporates themes from Wind stress and Plankton.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Physical and Biological Structure and Variability in an Upwelling Center off Peru Near 15°S During March, 1977 (61 citations)
  • Cross-Shelf Exchange (55 citations)
  • Water column structure and statistics of Denmark Strait Overflow Water cyclones (23 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Ecology
  • Meteorology

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Upwelling, Climatology, Sea surface temperature and Wind stress. His study of Submarine pipeline is a part of Oceanography. He works in the field of Climatology, namely Boundary current.

His work deals with themes such as Lens and Mooring, which intersect with Sea surface temperature. The concepts of his Wind stress study are interwoven with issues in Common spatial pattern and Ekman transport. In his study, Continental shelf is strongly linked to Downwelling, which falls under the umbrella field of Eddy.
