Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Meteorology
  • Climatology
  • Oceanography

Michael Sprenger mainly focuses on Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Environmental science, Extratropical cyclone and Tropopause. Many of his studies on Climatology apply to Meteorology as well. His work on Weather Research and Forecasting Model and Trajectory as part of general Meteorology study is frequently connected to Conveyor belt and Lagrangian analysis, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Michael Sprenger has researched Atmospheric sciences in several fields, including Wind speed and Ozone. His work investigates the relationship between Extratropical cyclone and topics such as Storm that intersect with problems in Algorithm, Contrast, Seasonality and North Atlantic oscillation. Michael Sprenger interconnects Planetary boundary layer and Atmospheric chemistry in the investigation of issues within Stratosphere.

His most cited work include:

  • Stratosphere‐troposphere exchange: A review, and what we have learned from STACCATO (333 citations)
  • IMILAST: A Community Effort to Intercompare Extratropical Cyclone Detection and Tracking Algorithms (280 citations)
  • IMILAST – a community effort to intercompare extratropical cyclone detection and tracking algorithms: assessing method-related uncertainties (236 citations)

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

Michael Sprenger mainly investigates Climatology, Environmental science, Atmospheric sciences, Troposphere and Potential vorticity. His study in Climatology concentrates on Tropopause, Extratropical cyclone, Northern Hemisphere, Rossby wave and Middle latitudes. His Northern Hemisphere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of North Atlantic oscillation and Anomaly.

You can notice a mix of various disciplines of study, such as Meteorology, Precipitation, Snow, Tropospheric ozone and Ozone layer, in his Environmental science studies. The Atmospheric sciences study which covers Ozone that intersects with Planetary boundary layer. His research integrates issues of Stratosphere, Ozone depletion, Atmospheric chemistry, Lidar and Outflow in his study of Troposphere.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Climatology (57.33%)
  • Environmental science (54.00%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (44.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Environmental science (54.00%)
  • Climatology (57.33%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (44.00%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental science, Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation and Potential vorticity. The Climatology study combines topics in areas such as Winter storm and Climate model. His Atmospheric sciences research includes elements of Virga, Ozone and Water vapor.

His Precipitation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Air mass, Troposphere, Extratropical cyclone and Middle latitudes. Michael Sprenger specializes in Troposphere, namely Tropopause. Orographic lift is closely connected to Lidar in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Extratropical cyclone.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Convective activity in an extratropical cyclone and its warm conveyor belt – a case‐study combining observations and a convection‐permitting model simulation (19 citations)
  • Kilometer-scale climate models: Prospects and challenges (18 citations)
  • Potential vorticity structure of embedded convection in a warm conveyor belt and its relevance for large-scale dynamics (10 citations)

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

  • Meteorology
  • Oceanography
  • Climatology

His primary areas of study are Environmental science, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation, Snow and Extratropical cyclone. He mostly deals with Troposphere in his studies of Atmospheric sciences. His Troposphere research includes themes of Climate change, Stratosphere, Ozone and Radiosonde.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Air mass and Convection in addition to Precipitation. His work often combines Extratropical cyclone and Potential vorticity studies. His studies in Climatology integrate themes in fields like Grid and Climate model.
