Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Climatology
  • Climate change

His primary scientific interests are in Climatology, Sea ice, Oceanography, Arctic ice pack and Sea surface temperature. In his works, Lawrence A. Mysak conducts interdisciplinary research on Climatology and Environmental science. Particularly relevant to Sea ice concentration is his body of work in Sea ice.

His research in Oceanography tackles topics such as Oceanic basin which are related to areas like Circulation, Continental shelf, Atlantic Equatorial mode and Ocean gyre. His Sea surface temperature study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as El Niño Southern Oscillation and Anticyclone. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Secular variation and Holocene.

His most cited work include:

  • Waves in the ocean (888 citations)
  • Earth system models of intermediate complexity: closing the gap in the spectrum of climate system models (394 citations)
  • Thermohaline circulation hysteresis: A model intercomparison (364 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Oceanography, Environmental science, Sea ice and Ocean current. His Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Climate model and Ice sheet. Lawrence A. Mysak interconnects North Atlantic oscillation and Anomaly in the investigation of issues within Sea ice.

The various areas that he examines in his Ocean current study include Wind stress and Sea surface temperature. As part of one scientific family, Lawrence A. Mysak deals mainly with the area of Arctic sea ice decline, narrowing it down to issues related to the Arctic dipole anomaly, and often Arctic geoengineering. The concepts of his Thermohaline circulation study are interwoven with issues in Forcing and Temperature salinity diagrams.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (54.12%)
  • Oceanography (25.77%)
  • Environmental science (20.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2017)?

  • Climatology (54.12%)
  • Environmental science (20.10%)
  • Oceanography (25.77%)

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

Lawrence A. Mysak spends much of his time researching Climatology, Environmental science, Oceanography, Carbon cycle and Climate model. His research in Sea ice and Thermohaline circulation are components of Climatology. His Thermohaline circulation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ocean current and Temperature salinity diagrams.

His work on Arctic and Stratification as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Oncorhynchus, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Carbon cycle research incorporates elements of Earth system science, Intermediate complexity, Paleoclimatology and Holocene. His Climate model research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Megafauna, Atmospheric carbon cycle, Ice shelf and Weathering.

Between 2005 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Coastal Trapped Waves (48 citations)
  • Glacial abrupt climate changes and Dansgaard-Oeschger oscillations in a coupled climate model (43 citations)
  • A tracer study of the Arctic Ocean's liquid freshwater export variability (42 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Climate change
  • Global warming

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Environmental science, Oceanography, Thermohaline circulation and Climate change. His research in Climatology intersects with topics in Glacial period, Climate model and Ice sheet. His Arctic, Beaufort Gyre, Stratification and Deep sea study in the realm of Oceanography connects with subjects such as Sink.

His work in Thermohaline circulation tackles topics such as Ocean current which are related to areas like Northern Hemisphere and Radiative forcing. His Climate change study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Atmospheric sciences, Carbon cycle, Stage and Methane. Lawrence A. Mysak studies Arctic ice pack, a branch of Sea ice.
