University of Edinburgh

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Oceanography

Noel Gourmelen spends much of his time researching Glacier, Ice stream, Remote sensing, Interferometric synthetic aperture radar and Seismology. His Glacier study results in a more complete grasp of Physical geography. His Period research extends to Ice stream, which is thematically connected.

His Remote sensing research incorporates elements of Climate change and Geodesy. His work deals with themes such as Structural basin and Basin and range topography, which intersect with Interferometric synthetic aperture radar. His study on East African Rift and Fault is often connected to Magma chamber and Slip as part of broader study in Seismology.

His most cited work include:

  • The glaciers climate change initiative: Methods for creating glacier area, elevation change and velocity products (160 citations)
  • A four-dimensional viscoelastic deformation model for Long Valley Caldera, California, between 1995 and 2000 (121 citations)
  • Mining-related ground deformation in Crescent Valley, Nevada: Implications for sparse GPS networks (118 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Glacier, Ice shelf, Geomorphology, Physical geography and Remote sensing. His work on Greenland ice sheet as part of his general Glacier study is frequently connected to Thinning, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The concepts of his Ice shelf study are interwoven with issues in Antarctic ice sheet, Peninsula and Ice sheet.

As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Ice sheet, concentrating on Antarctic sea ice and frequently concerns with Ice stream. His studies examine the connections between Geomorphology and genetics, as well as such issues in Tidewater glacier cycle, with regards to Ice tongue and Submarine. In his study, Interferometric synthetic aperture radar is inextricably linked to Geodesy, which falls within the broad field of Remote sensing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Glacier (63.50%)
  • Ice shelf (27.74%)
  • Geomorphology (27.01%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Glacier (63.50%)
  • Physical geography (31.39%)
  • Thinning (24.09%)

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

His primary areas of study are Glacier, Physical geography, Thinning, Altimeter and Elevation. The subject of his Glacier research is within the realm of Geomorphology. Noel Gourmelen works mostly in the field of Geomorphology, limiting it down to concerns involving Ice thickness and, occasionally, Greenland ice sheet.

His studies in Physical geography integrate themes in fields like Ice shelf, Front and Tidewater glacier cycle. His studies deal with areas such as Trough and Arctic ice pack as well as Ice shelf. His Drainage research focuses on Supraglacial lake and how it relates to Ice sheet and Meltwater.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Evolution of Supraglacial Lakes on the Larsen B Ice Shelf in the Decades Before it Collapsed (11 citations)
  • Getz Ice Shelf melt enhanced by freshwater discharge from beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (6 citations)
  • Review Article: Earth's ice imbalance (5 citations)

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

  • Glacier
  • Climate change
  • Paleontology

Noel Gourmelen mainly focuses on Physical geography, Glacier, Ice sheet, Ice shelf and Elevation. His Ice sheet research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Climate change and Antarctic ice sheet. His Antarctic ice sheet research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Arctic ice pack, Spatial distribution, Ocean current and Bathymetry.

Noel Gourmelen has included themes like Altimeter, Current and Sea level in his Elevation study. His Oceanography study incorporates themes from Meltwater and Drainage. His study on Thinning is intertwined with other disciplines of science such as Series, Debris, Remote sensing, Glacier mass balance and Ice stream.
