Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Climatology
  • Ecology

Pierrick Penven spends much of his time researching Oceanography, Baroclinity, Climatology, Grid and Upwelling. His study ties his expertise on Ecosystem together with the subject of Oceanography. Pierrick Penven combines subjects such as Turbulence, Meteorology and Mesoscale meteorology with his study of Baroclinity.

Pierrick Penven studies Sea surface temperature which is a part of Climatology. His Grid research incorporates elements of Domain, Embedding, Boundary value problem, Computational science and Fortran. His studies in Ocean current integrate themes in fields like Mooring, Eddy and Anticyclone.

His most cited work include:

  • On the role of the Agulhas system in ocean circulation and climate (370 citations)
  • Average circulation, seasonal cycle, and mesoscale dynamics of the Peru Current System: A modeling approach (236 citations)
  • Average circulation, seasonal cycle, and mesoscale dynamics of the Peru Current System: A modeling approach (236 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Oceanography, Climatology, Upwelling, Eddy and Mesoscale meteorology. His Climatology study frequently links to related topics such as Continental shelf. His work carried out in the field of Upwelling brings together such families of science as Marine ecosystem, Pelagic zone and Wind forcing.

His Eddy study deals with Regional Ocean Modeling System intersecting with Plume and Sverdrup balance. His work deals with themes such as Channel, Turbulence and Phytoplankton, which intersect with Mesoscale meteorology. His work on Rossby radius of deformation as part of general Baroclinity study is frequently linked to Computational science, Fortran, Classification of discontinuities and Boundary value problem, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Oceanography (97.85%)
  • Climatology (64.52%)
  • Upwelling (41.94%)

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

  • Oceanography (97.85%)
  • Climatology (64.52%)
  • Upwelling (41.94%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Oceanography, Climatology, Upwelling, Eddy and Current. His work on Submarine pipeline, Mesoscale meteorology and Bloom as part of general Oceanography research is frequently linked to South east, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His work on Ocean current and Sea surface temperature as part of general Climatology study is frequently linked to Circulation, System a and Numerical modeling, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His research integrates issues of Tropical Atlantic and Marine ecosystem in his study of Upwelling. His Eddy research incorporates themes from Agulhas current and Anticyclone. His Agulhas current research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Brill, Seasonality, Gulf Stream, Baroclinity and Seasonal cycle.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Modulation of the Agulhas Current Retroflection and Leakage by Oceanic Current Interaction with the Atmosphere in Coupled Simulations (27 citations)
  • The influence of bottom currents on the Zambezi Valley morphology (Mozambique Channel, SW Indian Ocean): In situ current observations and hydrodynamic modelling (15 citations)
  • SIDDIES Corridor: A Major East‐West Pathway of Long‐Lived Surface and Subsurface Eddies Crossing the Subtropical South Indian Ocean (14 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Climatology
  • Ecology

His main research concerns Climatology, Oceanography, Water mass, Ocean current and Sea surface temperature. His Climatology study frequently involves adjacent topics like Current. All of his Oceanography and Argo, Anticyclone and Front investigations are sub-components of the entire Oceanography study.

His study connects Upwelling and Ocean current. His Upwelling research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agulhas current, Boundary current and Mesoscale meteorology. Pierrick Penven has researched Sea surface temperature in several fields, including Marine ecosystem, Stratification and Tidal atlas, Tidal current.
