Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Statistics
  • Mutation

Patrick Willems spends much of his time researching Genetics, Precipitation, Climatology, Climate change and Downscaling. His Genetics research focuses on subjects like Hearing loss, which are linked to Mitochondrial DNA and Penetrance. The study incorporates disciplines such as Storm, Drainage basin, Evapotranspiration, Atmospheric circulation and Spatial distribution in addition to Precipitation.

His research investigates the link between Drainage basin and topics such as Spatial variability that cross with problems in Hydrology. Patrick Willems combines subjects such as Quantile, Seasonality, Global warming, Streamflow and Hydrology with his study of Climatology. The concepts of his Climate change study are interwoven with issues in Meteorology and Drainage.

His most cited work include:

  • Increased bone density in sclerosteosis is due to the deficiency of a novel secreted protein (SOST) (937 citations)
  • Abnormal dendritic spines in fragile X knockout mice: maturation and pruning deficits. (884 citations)
  • Fmr1 knockout mice: A model to study fragile X mental retardation (883 citations)

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

Patrick Willems mostly deals with Hydrology, Climate change, Climatology, Precipitation and Drainage basin. His study in Hydrology focuses on Flood myth, Surface runoff, Hydrology, Hydrological modelling and Rainfall runoff. Patrick Willems studies Climate change, focusing on Climate model in particular.

The various areas that Patrick Willems examines in his Climatology study include Structural basin, Quantile, Meteorology, Streamflow and Downscaling. His work carried out in the field of Meteorology brings together such families of science as Weather radar and Remote sensing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Hydrology (25.99%)
  • Climate change (28.01%)
  • Climatology (27.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Climatology (27.00%)
  • Climate change (28.01%)
  • Precipitation (14.26%)

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

Patrick Willems spends much of his time researching Climatology, Climate change, Precipitation, Climate model and Downscaling. His Climatology study incorporates themes from Quantile, Flood myth, Meteorology, Scale and General Circulation Model. He interconnects Uncertainty analysis, Water resources, Surface runoff, Physical geography and Greenhouse gas in the investigation of issues within Climate change.

His studies in Water resources integrate themes in fields like Structural basin and Streamflow. His Structural basin research includes themes of Drainage basin and Hydrology. His research ties Atmospheric sciences and Precipitation together.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The ROS Wheel: Refining ROS Transcriptional Footprints (73 citations)
  • Weather radar rainfall data in urban hydrology (70 citations)
  • Damage on plants activates Ca2+-dependent metacaspases for release of immunomodulatory peptides. (68 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • Statistics

Patrick Willems focuses on Climatology, Climate change, Precipitation, Climate model and Quantile. Patrick Willems has researched Climatology in several fields, including Structural basin, Streamflow, Surface runoff and Trend analysis. In general Climate change study, his work on Downscaling and Future climate often relates to the realm of Middle East, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His Precipitation study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Atmospheric sciences. The study incorporates disciplines such as Variance decomposition of forecast errors, Uncertainty analysis and Global warming in addition to Climate model. His study in Quantile is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Return period and Water resources.
