Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

Martin Funk mainly investigates Glacier, Hydrology, Climate change, Climatology and Glacier mass balance. Martin Funk combines subjects such as Atmospheric sciences and Ice stream, Glacier ice accumulation with his study of Glacier. His Ice stream research includes themes of Geomorphology and Ice sheet.

Many of his research projects under Hydrology are closely connected to Tongue, Rheology and Diffusion with Tongue, Rheology and Diffusion, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His work in Climatology tackles topics such as Little ice age which are related to areas like Series, Spatial distribution, Elevation and Phanerozoic. In his research on the topic of Glacier mass balance, Atmosphere, Equilibrium line, Climate state and Net radiation is strongly related with Climate model.

His most cited work include:

  • Climate at the equilibrium line of glaciers (334 citations)
  • Modelling runoff from highly glacierized alpine drainage basins in a changing climate (268 citations)
  • An enhanced temperature-index glacier melt model including the shortwave radiation balance: development and testing for Haut Glacier d'Arolla, Switzerland (251 citations)

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

Martin Funk spends much of his time researching Glacier, Geomorphology, Physical geography, Ice stream and Climatology. In his study, Geodesy is strongly linked to Hydrology, which falls under the umbrella field of Glacier. His Geomorphology study incorporates themes from Front, Ice tongue, Flow, Drainage and Borehole.

His Physical geography research includes elements of Glacial period and Tidewater glacier cycle. In his research, Arctic ice pack, Ice-sheet model and Cryosphere is intimately related to Ice sheet, which falls under the overarching field of Ice stream. The study incorporates disciplines such as Elevation, Climate change and Atmospheric sciences in addition to Glacier mass balance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Glacier (71.43%)
  • Geomorphology (29.10%)
  • Physical geography (21.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Glacier (71.43%)
  • Physical geography (21.69%)
  • Geomorphology (29.10%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Glacier, Physical geography, Geomorphology, Ice stream and Ice sheet. Martin Funk conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Glacier and Event through his research. His study in the field of Tidewater is also linked to topics like Normalization property.

His work on Snowpack as part of general Geomorphology study is frequently linked to Infrasound, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His work in Ice stream addresses subjects such as Ice core, which are connected to disciplines such as Ablation zone, Geophysics and Atmosphere. His study in Ice sheet is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climatology, Cryosphere, Antarctic sea ice, Ice-sheet model and Last Glacial Maximum.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Modelling last glacial cycle ice dynamics in the Alps (56 citations)
  • Common climatic signal from glaciers in the European Alps over the last 50 years (39 citations)
  • Heat sources within the Greenland Ice Sheet: dissipation, temperate paleo-firn and cryo-hydrologic warming (37 citations)

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

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Meteorology

Martin Funk mainly focuses on Glacier, Ice stream, Geomorphology, Physical geography and Ice sheet. He has researched Glacier in several fields, including Snow and Crevasse. His Ice stream study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Glacier mass balance and Geodesy.

When carried out as part of a general Geomorphology research project, his work on Bedrock is frequently linked to work in Critical condition, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Physical geography research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Landslide and Glacial period. His studies deal with areas such as Climatology, Ice core and Cryosphere, Antarctic sea ice, Ice-sheet model as well as Ice sheet.
