Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Carbon dioxide

Ice core, Atmospheric sciences, Oceanography, Greenhouse gas and Climatology are his primary areas of study. His studies in Ice core integrate themes in fields like Bedrock, Glacial period, Geomorphology, European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica and Ice-sheet model. His work focuses on many connections between European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica and other disciplines, such as Ice sheet, that overlap with his field of interest in Holocene and Quaternary.

His Atmospheric sciences study combines topics in areas such as Atmospheric methane and Methane. As part of one scientific family, Renato Spahni deals mainly with the area of Oceanography, narrowing it down to issues related to the Interglacial, and often Paleoclimatology. His Greenhouse gas research integrates issues from Greenhouse effect and Climate change.

His most cited work include:

  • Orbital and Millennial Antarctic Climate Variability over the Past 800,000 Years (1418 citations)
  • Three decades of global methane sources and sinks (1096 citations)
  • One-to-one coupling of glacial climate variability in Greenland and Antarctica. (920 citations)

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

Renato Spahni mainly focuses on Atmospheric sciences, Ice core, Climatology, Methane and Greenhouse gas. His Atmospheric sciences research incorporates elements of Climate change, Hydrology, Wetland, Carbon cycle and Atmospheric methane. His studies deal with areas such as Glacial period, Ice sheet, Dome and European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica as well as Ice core.

His Climatology study incorporates themes from Marine isotope stage, Last Glacial Maximum and Data assimilation. His Methane research includes themes of Fossil fuel and Atmospheric chemistry. The Greenhouse gas study combines topics in areas such as Greenhouse effect and Land use, land-use change and forestry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Atmospheric sciences (52.71%)
  • Ice core (41.86%)
  • Climatology (41.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Atmospheric sciences (52.71%)
  • Methane (25.58%)
  • Greenhouse gas (30.23%)

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

Renato Spahni spends much of his time researching Atmospheric sciences, Methane, Greenhouse gas, Atmospheric methane and Holocene. His Atmospheric sciences research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hydrology, Permafrost, Wetland methane emissions and Deglaciation. Renato Spahni combines subjects such as Climatology, Environmental engineering, Atmospheric chemistry, Natural gas and Data assimilation with his study of Methane.

His Greenhouse gas study frequently involves adjacent topics like Climate change. His Atmospheric methane study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biosphere and Wetland. The study incorporates disciplines such as Glacial period and Interglacial in addition to Holocene.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The global methane budget 2000–2012 (530 citations)
  • Global wetland contribution to 2000–2012 atmospheric methane growth rate dynamics (75 citations)
  • WETCHIMP-WSL: intercomparison of wetland methane emissions models over West Siberia (63 citations)

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

  • Climate change
  • Global warming
  • Carbon dioxide

His primary scientific interests are in Climate change, Atmospheric sciences, Greenhouse gas, Atmospheric methane and Vegetation. His study in Climate change focuses on Global warming in particular. Atmospheric sciences is closely attributed to Methane in his study.

His research investigates the link between Methane and topics such as Atmospheric chemistry that cross with problems in Anomaly, Fossil fuel, Atmospheric models and Climatology. His study in Greenhouse gas is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Greenhouse effect and Wetland. His Vegetation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Primary production, Forestry and Climate sensitivity.
