Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

Michael Steele mainly focuses on Arctic, Climatology, Oceanography, Arctic sea ice decline and Sea ice. His work on Arctic dipole anomaly is typically connected to Environmental science as part of general Arctic study, connecting several disciplines of science. His work carried out in the field of Arctic dipole anomaly brings together such families of science as Ocean heat content and Arctic geoengineering.

He combines topics linked to Stratification with his work on Climatology. As part of his inquiry into Arctic ice pack and Drift ice, Michael Steele is doing Arctic sea ice decline research. His Sea ice research includes themes of Halocline and Forcing.

His most cited work include:

  • PHC: A Global Ocean Hydrography with a High-Quality Arctic Ocean (743 citations)
  • The large‐scale freshwater cycle of the Arctic (410 citations)
  • Retreat of the cold halocline layer in the Arctic Ocean (365 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Oceanography, Sea ice, Arctic, Environmental science and Climatology. Arctic sea ice decline, Beaufort Gyre, The arctic, Thermohaline circulation and Salinity are among the areas of Oceanography where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His research integrates issues of Ice-albedo feedback, Ocean heat content, Arctic dipole anomaly and Arctic geoengineering in his study of Arctic sea ice decline.

The Arctic study combines topics in areas such as Halocline, Hydrography, Ocean current and Sea level. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Climate change, Latitude, Seasonality and Temperature salinity diagrams. His Arctic ice pack research integrates issues from Anomaly and Lead.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (60.99%)
  • Sea ice (47.25%)
  • Arctic (46.15%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Environmental science (45.60%)
  • Oceanography (60.99%)
  • Arctic (46.15%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Environmental science, Oceanography, Arctic, Sea ice and The arctic. Environmental science overlaps with fields such as Climatology, Arctic ice pack, Sea surface temperature, Seasonal ice zone and Indigenous in his research. His work on Beaufort Gyre and Sea surface salinity as part of his general Oceanography study is frequently connected to Phytoplankton, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His work deals with themes such as Snow, Surface and Geostrophic current, which intersect with Arctic. His Sea ice study combines topics in areas such as Sampling, Power law, Beaufort scale and Range. The concepts of his The arctic study are interwoven with issues in Cryosphere, Climate change, Sink and Oceanic basin.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Half a century of satellite remote sensing of sea-surface temperature (34 citations)
  • Collapse of the 2017 Winter Beaufort High: A Response to Thinning Sea Ice? (29 citations)
  • Greater Role of Geostrophic Currents in Ekman Dynamics in the Western Arctic Ocean as a Mechanism for Beaufort Gyre Stabilization (22 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Climate change

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental science, Sea ice, Oceanography, Arctic and Arctic ice pack. The subject of his Sea ice research is within the realm of Climatology. His work in the fields of Climatology, such as Melt pond, overlaps with other areas such as Model development.

When carried out as part of a general Oceanography research project, his work on Beaufort Gyre and Polar amplification is frequently linked to work in Phytoplankton, Thinning and Collapse, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His study in the fields of Algal bloom under the domain of Phytoplankton overlaps with other disciplines such as Seasonal ice zone, Annual cycle, Irradiance and Ocean color. His Arctic ice pack study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Plankton.
