What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Oceanography
- Meteorology
- Ecology
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Estuary, Oceanography, Stratification, Estuarine water circulation and Ocean current.
His work on Estuary is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Salinity.
His Oceanography research focuses on Plume and how it relates to Forecast skill.
His Stratification course of study focuses on Meteorology and Parameter space, Tidal forcing and Vertical mixing.
Parker MacCready performs multidisciplinary studies into Estuarine water circulation and Advection in his work.
He works mostly in the field of Ocean current, limiting it down to concerns involving Hindcast and, occasionally, Sea level, Temperature salinity diagrams and Regional Ocean Modeling System.
His most cited work include:
- Boundary Mixing and Arrested Ekman Layers: Rotating Stratified Flow Near a Sloping Boundary (243 citations)
- The Estuarine Circulation (222 citations)
- Advances in Estuarine Physics (205 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His main research concerns Oceanography, Estuary, Upwelling, Mechanics and Stratification.
The study of Oceanography is intertwined with the study of Plume in a number of ways.
His Estuary study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Hydrology, Residence time and Salinity.
He has researched Salinity in several fields, including Hydrography and Atmospheric sciences.
While the research belongs to areas of Upwelling, Parker MacCready spends his time largely on the problem of Phytoplankton, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Productivity and Plankton.
His work in Mechanics addresses issues such as Meteorology, which are connected to fields such as Boundary layer.
He most often published in these fields:
- Oceanography (53.66%)
- Estuary (32.93%)
- Upwelling (19.51%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Oceanography (53.66%)
- Mixing (9.76%)
- Knudsen number (7.32%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Mixing, Knudsen number, Atmospheric sciences and Estuary.
His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Circulation and Oceanography.
His Knudsen number study which covers Flow that intersects with Inflow and Estuarine water circulation.
His work on Global wind patterns is typically connected to Volume and Source water as part of general Atmospheric sciences study, connecting several disciplines of science.
He interconnects Productivity, Phytoplankton, Photic zone and Wind speed in the investigation of issues within Upwelling.
His Temperature salinity diagrams study, which is part of a larger body of work in Salinity, is frequently linked to Advection, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Estuarine Exchange Flow is Related to Mixing through the Salinity Variance Budget (24 citations)
- The Knudsen theorem and the Total Exchange Flow analysis framework applied to the Baltic Sea (20 citations)
- Numerical issues of the Total Exchange Flow (TEF) analysis framework for quantifying estuarine circulation (7 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Oceanography
- Ecology
- Meteorology
His primary areas of study are Knudsen number, Seafloor spreading, Ocean current, Mixing and Salinity.
His Knudsen number research includes themes of Flow, Estuarine water circulation, Inflow and Atmospheric sciences.
The concepts of his Seafloor spreading study are interwoven with issues in Seismology, Deep sea and Upwelling.
To a larger extent, Parker MacCready studies Oceanography with the aim of understanding Upwelling.
The various areas that Parker MacCready examines in his Ocean current study include Downwelling, Ocean observations, Shore and Ocean acidification.
His Mixing research covers fields of interest such as Mechanics, Outflow, Ocean dynamics, Flow and Streamflow.
