Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Oceanography

Rengaswamy Ramesh mainly investigates Monsoon, Quaternary, δ18O, Geochemistry and Holocene. In the field of Climatology and Oceanography he studies Monsoon. His Quaternary research includes elements of Caliche, East Asian Monsoon and Last Glacial Maximum.

His δ18O research includes themes of Atmospheric sciences, δ13C, Hydrology, Altitude and Dendrochronology. His Holocene study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Structural basin, Desert climate, Pleistocene and Precipitation. His Paleoclimatology research incorporates elements of Foraminifera and Physical geography.

His most cited work include:

  • The Physical Science Basis (3670 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Monsoon, Climatology, δ18O, Indian summer monsoon and Oceanography. His study in Monsoon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Speleothem, Holocene, Vegetation, Physical geography and Isotopes of oxygen. His research in the fields of Last Glacial Maximum overlaps with other disciplines such as Spatial variability.

His Climatology research focuses on subjects like Stalagmite, which are linked to Global warming, East Asian Monsoon, Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project and Southern Hemisphere. His research in δ18O intersects with topics in Bay, Tropics, Atmospheric sciences, Precipitation and Chronology. In the subject of general Oceanography, his work in Bloom is often linked to High rate, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Effect of Monsoon Circulation on the Stable Isotopic Composition of Rainfall (14 citations)
  • The Effect of Monsoon Circulation on the Stable Isotopic Composition of Rainfall (14 citations)
  • The Effect of Monsoon Circulation on the Stable Isotopic Composition of Rainfall (14 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Oceanography

Rengaswamy Ramesh focuses on Climatology, Atmospheric sciences, Stalagmite, Monsoon circulation and Isotopic composition. His Climatology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Speleothem, Climate change and δ18O. His Atmospheric sciences study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wet season, Tropics, Precipitation, Water vapor and Moisture.

His research integrates issues of East Asian Monsoon, Monsoon, Paleoclimatology, Seasonality and Atmospheric circulation in his study of Stalagmite. His Monsoon research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cave, Holocene, Global warming, Radiative forcing and Isotopes of oxygen. Rengaswamy Ramesh combines subjects such as Solar variation, Period, Teleconnection and Before Present with his study of Indian summer monsoon.
