Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Climatology

His main research concerns Atmospheric sciences, Climatology, Climate model, Aerosol and Climate change. His Atmospheric sciences study incorporates themes from Potential evaporation, Numerical weather prediction and Coupled model intercomparison project. His work on Forcing, Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System and Prognostic chart as part of general Climatology research is often related to Tropical cyclone forecast model, thus linking different fields of science.

Leon D. Rotstayn has included themes like Cloud cover and Meteorology, Troposphere in his Climate model study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Forecast skill, Teleconnection and Ocean current. His Climate change research incorporates themes from Monsoon, Common spatial pattern and Mode.

His most cited work include:

  • On the attribution of changing pan evaporation (419 citations)
  • Tropical Rainfall Trends and the Indirect Aerosol Effect (318 citations)
  • Radiative forcing in the ACCMIP historical and future climate simulations (292 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Climate model, Aerosol and Climate change. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Global warming and Precipitation. His Atmospheric sciences study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Radiative forcing, Cloud forcing, Greenhouse gas and Coupled model intercomparison project.

His Climate model research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Parametrization, Meteorology and Sea level. His research in Aerosol tackles topics such as Mode which are related to areas like Common spatial pattern, Sea salt, Teleconnection and Forecast skill. His research in Climate change intersects with topics in Monsoon and Ocean current.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (73.17%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (60.98%)
  • Climate model (48.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2016)?

  • Climatology (73.17%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (60.98%)
  • Climate model (48.78%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Climate model, Coupled model intercomparison project and Forcing. His work deals with themes such as Global warming, Atmosphere and Precipitation, which intersect with Climatology. His studies deal with areas such as Representative Concentration Pathways, Radiative forcing, Aerosol and Greenhouse gas as well as Atmospheric sciences.

Leon D. Rotstayn interconnects Meteorology and Future climate in the investigation of issues within Climate model. His study looks at the relationship between Forcing and topics such as Cloud albedo, which overlap with Tropical rainfall and GCM transcription factors. His study in Climate change is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ocean heat content and Ocean current.

Between 2010 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Radiative forcing in the ACCMIP historical and future climate simulations (292 citations)
  • Evaluation of cloud and water vapor simulations in CMIP5 climate models using NASA “A-Train” satellite observations (263 citations)
  • Aerosol- and greenhouse gas-induced changes in summer rainfall and circulation in the Australasian region: a study using single-forcing climate simulations (192 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Meteorology
  • Global warming

His scientific interests lie mostly in Coupled model intercomparison project, Atmospheric sciences, Climatology, Climate model and Climate change. Leon D. Rotstayn has researched Coupled model intercomparison project in several fields, including Hadley cell, Walker circulation, Monsoon and Rossby wave. The various areas that he examines in his Atmospheric sciences study include Radiative forcing and Greenhouse gas.

His specific area of interest is Climatology, where he studies Sea ice. His Climate model research includes elements of Meteorology, Set and Mixing ratio. As part of the same scientific family, Leon D. Rotstayn usually focuses on Climate change, concentrating on Forcing and intersecting with Ocean heat content, Sea level rise and Anticyclone.
