Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Climatology, Eddy, Physical oceanography and Climate model. Tropical Atlantic, Hydrography, Upwelling, North Atlantic Deep Water and Ocean dynamics are the subjects of his Oceanography studies. Peter Brandt works mostly in the field of Upwelling, limiting it down to topics relating to Water mass and, in certain cases, Ocean current, as a part of the same area of interest.

His work on Sea surface temperature and Argo as part of general Climatology research is frequently linked to Cape verde, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His studies deal with areas such as Mixed layer and Mesoscale meteorology as well as Eddy. His study looks at the relationship between Physical oceanography and topics such as Gulf Stream, which overlap with Boundary current, Extratropical cyclone and Climate change.

His most cited work include:

  • Expansion of oxygen minimum zones may reduce available habitat for tropical pelagic fishes (278 citations)
  • Western boundary currents regulated by interaction between ocean eddies and the atmosphere (129 citations)
  • Western boundary currents regulated by interaction between ocean eddies and the atmosphere (129 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Climatology, Tropical Atlantic, Upwelling and Oxygen minimum zone. While working in this field, Peter Brandt studies both Oceanography and Cape verde. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Equator and Circulation.

His research in Oxygen minimum zone focuses on subjects like Mesoscale meteorology, which are connected to Eddy. Peter Brandt focuses mostly in the field of Mixed layer, narrowing it down to topics relating to Atmospheric sciences and, in certain cases, Turbulence. He interconnects Antarctic Bottom Water and Gulf Stream in the investigation of issues within North Atlantic Deep Water.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (66.23%)
  • Climatology (46.17%)
  • Tropical Atlantic (29.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Oceanography (66.23%)
  • Tropical Atlantic (29.82%)
  • Upwelling (15.83%)

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

Peter Brandt spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Tropical Atlantic, Upwelling, Climatology and Sea surface temperature. The study incorporates disciplines such as Subtropics and Connection in addition to Oceanography. His research in Tropical Atlantic intersects with topics in Equator, Circulation, Ecosystem and Momentum flux.

His research integrates issues of Ocean observations, Atmospheric circulation, Severe weather and Climate change in his study of Upwelling. In his research on the topic of Climatology, Mesoscale meteorology, Tropical Atlantic Variability, Zonal and meridional and Ekman transport is strongly related with Ocean general circulation model. His Sea surface temperature study combines topics in areas such as Mixed layer, Atmospheric sciences and Kelvin wave.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The tropical Atlantic observing system (29 citations)
  • The tropical Atlantic observing system (29 citations)
  • Integrated Observations of Global Surface Winds, Currents, and Waves: Requirements and Challenges for the Next Decade (25 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Ecology

Peter Brandt focuses on Oceanography, Upwelling, Ocean current, Tropical Atlantic and Climatology. He combines subjects such as Biogeochemical cycle and Equivalent spherical diameter with his study of Oceanography. His Upwelling research incorporates elements of Thermohaline circulation, Climate change, Ocean observations, Atmospheric circulation and Severe weather.

His work on Boundary current is typically connected to Momentum as part of general Ocean current study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Tropical Atlantic research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Entrainment, Surface water, Atlantic hurricane and Precipitation. When carried out as part of a general Climatology research project, his work on Kelvin wave and Mixed layer is frequently linked to work in Capacity building, Multinational corporation and Software deployment, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
