Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Climate change

Peter Ruggiero spends much of his time researching Shore, Oceanography, Climatology, Storm and Coastal erosion. His study focuses on the intersection of Shore and fields such as Sediment transport with connections in the field of Ecosystem engineer and Sand dune stabilization. His study in Bathymetry and Indian ocean are all subfields of Oceanography.

His work deals with themes such as Inlet and Water level, which intersect with Climatology. His Storm study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sediment, Significant wave height and Hindcast. Peter Ruggiero combines subjects such as Intertidal zone, Foredune and Geomorphology with his study of Plage.

His most cited work include:

  • Wave runup, extreme water levels and the erosion of properties backing beaches (260 citations)
  • Increasing wave heights and extreme value projections: The wave climate of the U.S. Pacific Northwest (182 citations)
  • Modeling benefits from nature: using ecosystem services to inform coastal and marine spatial planning (181 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Oceanography, Shore, Sediment transport, Coastal hazards and Climatology. Oceanography connects with themes related to Sediment in his study. His study looks at the relationship between Shore and topics such as Intertidal zone, which overlap with Cobble.

The various areas that Peter Ruggiero examines in his Sediment transport study include Hydrology and Aeolian processes. His Coastal hazards research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Coastal flood, Flooding and Sea level. The study incorporates disciplines such as Scale, Significant wave height, Water level, Buoy and Meteorology in addition to Climatology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (46.78%)
  • Shore (26.90%)
  • Sediment transport (15.79%)

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

  • Oceanography (46.78%)
  • Foredune (11.70%)
  • Coastal hazards (15.79%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Oceanography, Foredune, Coastal hazards, Hydrology and Sediment transport. While working on this project, Peter Ruggiero studies both Oceanography and Wave setup. His Foredune research includes elements of Beach morphodynamics, Subaerial and Accretion.

His Coastal hazards study combines topics in areas such as Coastal flood, Coastal erosion and Swash. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Inlet, Barrier island and Storm surge. His work focuses on many connections between Sediment transport and other disciplines, such as Aeolian processes, that overlap with his field of interest in Sediment and Period.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Exploring Marine and Aeolian Controls on Coastal Foredune Growth Using a Coupled Numerical Model (21 citations)
  • What's streamflow got to do with it? A probabilistic simulation of the competing oceanographic and fluvial processes driving extreme along-river water levels (16 citations)
  • Predicting Climate‐Driven Coastlines With a Simple and Efficient Multiscale Model (12 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Oceanography
  • Climate change

Peter Ruggiero mainly investigates Oceanography, Foredune, Subaerial, Storm surge and Water level. His work on Storm as part of general Oceanography study is frequently linked to Bayesian network, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Dominance, Ecology, Biogeography and Ammophila breviligulata.

He has researched Subaerial in several fields, including Spatial ecology, Sedimentary budget and Erosion. His Storm surge research integrates issues from Sea level, Coastal management, Coastal hazards and Bathymetry. His Water level study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Tide gauge and Fluvial.
