What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Glacier
- Climate change
- Global warming
Luke Copland mainly focuses on Glacier, Physical geography, Sea ice, Arctic ice pack and Geomorphology.
His work in the fields of Glacier, such as Glacier mass balance, overlaps with other areas such as Baseline.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Glacial period and Climate change in addition to Physical geography.
The concepts of his Sea ice study are interwoven with issues in Sea level, Ice core and Arctic.
The Geomorphology study combines topics in areas such as Glacier morphology and Glacier terminus.
He works mostly in the field of Surge, limiting it down to topics relating to Rock glacier and, in certain cases, Moraine, Ice field and Earth science.
His most cited work include:
- Expanded and Recently Increased Glacier Surging in the Karakoram (142 citations)
- Global Land Ice Measurements from Space (GLIMS): Remote Sensing and GIS Investigations of the Earth's Cryosphere (115 citations)
- Debris‐covered glaciers and rock glaciers in the nanga parbat himalaya, pakistan (111 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Luke Copland mostly deals with Glacier, Arctic, Oceanography, Physical geography and Sea ice.
His Glacier research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Glacier morphology, Surge and Tidewater glacier cycle.
The various areas that Luke Copland examines in his Physical geography study include Glacial period and Period.
His study in Sea ice is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sea surface temperature and Bay.
His research integrates issues of Elevation, Glacier terminus and Glacier ice accumulation in his study of Geomorphology.
His Arctic ice pack study incorporates themes from Ice shelf and Ice core.
He most often published in these fields:
- Glacier (56.00%)
- Arctic (29.60%)
- Oceanography (28.80%)
