Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Fluid dynamics

Ren-Chieh Lien mainly investigates Oceanography, Turbulence, Internal wave, Turbulence kinetic energy and Internal tide. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Tidal power and Surface wave. His Turbulence study deals with Classical mechanics intersecting with Fluid dynamics.

His work carried out in the field of Internal wave brings together such families of science as Seismology, Stratification, Boundary current and Wind wave. His Turbulence kinetic energy research integrates issues from Instrumentation, Richardson number and Boundary layer. Ren-Chieh Lien interconnects Hydraulic jump, Continental shelf, Isopycnal, Ridge and Breaking wave in the investigation of issues within Internal tide.

His most cited work include:

  • The formation and fate of internal waves in the South China Sea (265 citations)
  • Comparison of Turbulence Kinetic Energy Dissipation Rate Estimates from Two Ocean Microstructure Profilers (209 citations)
  • Observations of turbulence in a tidal beam and across a coastal ridge (150 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Turbulence, Oceanography, Internal wave, Climatology and Geophysics. His Turbulence kinetic energy study in the realm of Turbulence connects with subjects such as Tropical instability waves. His research in the fields of Internal tide and Mooring overlaps with other disciplines such as South china and Energy flux.

His study in Internal wave is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Seismology, Continental shelf, Stratification and Ocean current. Ren-Chieh Lien has researched Climatology in several fields, including Madden–Julian oscillation and Water mass. His Geophysics study which covers Vortex that intersects with Reynolds number.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Turbulence (35.71%)
  • Oceanography (33.93%)
  • Internal wave (31.25%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Oceanography (33.93%)
  • Turbulence (35.71%)
  • Geophysics (17.86%)

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

His main research concerns Oceanography, Turbulence, Geophysics, Climatology and Internal wave. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Oceanography, Hydraulics is strongly linked to Turbulent mixing. His Turbulence research is mostly focused on the topic Turbulence kinetic energy.

His work in Geophysics tackles topics such as Seamount which are related to areas like Flow, Buoyancy and Length scale. His Climatology research also works with subjects such as

  • Atmospheric sciences most often made with reference to Madden–Julian oscillation,
  • Water mass that intertwine with fields like Hydrography. His research in Internal wave intersects with topics in Pycnocline, Core, Shoaling and schooling, Thermocline and Gravity wave.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The formation and fate of internal waves in the South China Sea (265 citations)
  • Impact of typhoons on the ocean in the pacific (87 citations)
  • The latmix summer campaign: Submesoscale stirring in the upper ocean (68 citations)

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

  • Oceanography
  • Meteorology
  • Fluid dynamics

Ren-Chieh Lien mainly focuses on Oceanography, Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Mooring and Geophysics. His research integrates issues of Surface wave and Eddy in his study of Oceanography. His Atmospheric sciences study incorporates themes from Madden–Julian oscillation and Kinetic energy.

In his research on the topic of Mooring, Internal tide, Potential energy, Mixed layer and Isothermal process is strongly related with Stratification. His Geophysics research includes themes of Internal wave and Turbulence kinetic energy. As part of the same scientific family, Ren-Chieh Lien usually focuses on Turbulence kinetic energy, concentrating on Buoyancy and intersecting with Water mass.
