Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Oceanography
Sea ice
Meteorology

Miles G. McPhee mainly investigates Arctic ice pack, Sea ice, Environmental science, Climatology and Antarctic sea ice. His Arctic ice pack study incorporates themes from Pycnocline and Boundary layer thickness, Turbulence, Reynolds stress, Planetary boundary layer. His Sea ice research is mostly focused on the topic Drift ice.

Miles G. McPhee has researched Drift ice in several fields, including Mixed layer, Sea ice thickness and Heat flux. His Mixed layer study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Geophysics and Boundary layer. His Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean research integrates issues from Atmosphere and Ice pack.

His most cited work include:

Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (426 citations)
Turbulent Heat Flux in the Upper Ocean Under Sea Ice (195 citations)
Solar heating of the Arctic mixed layer (178 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Sea ice, Arctic ice pack, Boundary layer, Oceanography and Mixed layer. His Sea ice study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Atmospheric sciences and Heat flux. The Drift ice research he does as part of his general Arctic ice pack study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Environmental science, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

The various areas that he examines in his Boundary layer study include Turbulence, Reynolds stress, Turbulence modeling and Geophysics. His studies deal with areas such as Pycnocline, Convection and Temperature salinity diagrams as well as Mixed layer. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Climatology, Atmosphere and Ocean heat content is strongly linked to Arctic.

He most often published in these fields:

Sea ice (42.86%)
Arctic ice pack (41.27%)
Boundary layer (33.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2017)?

Arctic ice pack (41.27%)
Oceanography (31.75%)
Sea ice (42.86%)

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

His primary areas of study are Arctic ice pack, Oceanography, Sea ice, Arctic and Climatology. He interconnects Surface roughness, Reynolds stress and Boundary layer in the investigation of issues within Arctic ice pack. His work in the fields of Sea ice, such as Drift ice and Sea ice thickness, intersects with other areas such as Environmental science.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Mixed layer and Antarctic sea ice in addition to Drift ice. His studies link Atmospheric sciences with Sea ice thickness. His work deals with themes such as Chemical physics and Atmosphere, which intersect with Arctic.

Between 2005 and 2017, his most popular works were:

Rapid change in freshwater content of the Arctic Ocean (164 citations)
Summer retreat of Arctic sea ice: Role of summer winds (90 citations)
Role of the upper ocean in the energy budget of Arctic sea ice during SHEBA (50 citations)
